Birth of the 12g cube

[scarf_ace1981]

It was sad to see the 120 and 40br go but i can't stay away. i've set up a 12g nano cube.

LR:
only two nice sized rocks

my first ever BB!

equipment:
250w MH phoenix on pfo set up
remora skimmer
small rio for water movement

corals:
tons of zoos
hammer
clove polyps
favia
softie
gbta

macro:
money plant
red grape.


what i would like to add:
fish:
i'd like to get a tiny clown for the gbta. there is no sand so i'm not sure what else to add. i've never had a tank this small for long.

inverts:
maybe a small skunk cleaner


PRE MH- notice the 2-36" double flourescent lights

With 250w MH

as soon as i dropped the rocks in all sorts of critters popped out

most all my zoo colonies are closed but i hope w/ some TLC that will soon change

Jon, it looks awesome. You can borrow my tomatoe clowns. They will just come back home when you are ready to leave.

Jon, are you having any heat issues with that 250W MH on that nano? I was thinking of adding that same output to my 24 Aquapod but am scared of heat, lol....

you have tomatoes?? they are a bit too aggressive for my taste but thanks awilda

charles i'll take you up on that offer, if it's small. i'll call you to see when we can meet up

i have the a/c on when i turn on the MH so heat isn't much of an issue.
i have noticed that w/ these nanos the temp goes up dramatically everytime you add a new piece of equipment.
