[cyloq]

awesome looking tank

what filtration do you use? what are the tanks dimensions? Im looking for nano but dont know what to go with and I really like your design.

 

[Quang]

thx ctx and cylog

to answer your question:
Dimensions are roughly 24Lx7wx8H. It's a very shallow and narrow tank that's why its only 6.6g. I bought it from Petco in a kit set but only use the tank and the HOB. My maintan. is a 1-1.5g change a week, with chemi-pure (change it out every 3 months) and a poly-filter pads which I replace every week. I buy the 8" pad which I cut to 4 pieces...so thats a pad a month. I use Purified Water R/O by Great Bear in the gallon bottle from the supermarket for my top-off water and water change. This tank is very low maint. I dont dose for anything except some week iodine every 2 weeks and a cap of ReefComplete calcium per water change and a cap in my gallon of make-up water. Everything looks healthy and happy. I just need to upgrade my lights from the cheap Odyssea PC fixture to Tek T-5s (waiting for my tax returns :teeth.

Whao that was long-winded. before and after shot of tanks' progression...can't wait to see what it'll look like in a year.
