Rocks slice of reef
Introduction:
Well after being coaxed into it I'll finally start a tank journal here. Just so everythings clear this particular nano is just a holding tank (and extremely basic) while I finish modding the old one (Aquaworld TL-450 65L). I'll update this thread with the new info when I finally finish it. Admittedly I let the TL-450 go for a bit, and had a couple things perish (I'm not happy about that one) but now I'm back on the bandwagon with more funds to come back with this nano better then ever.
