looks great!

what do you have for equiptment?

going to keep coral?
My Nano is live rock filtration. I have a metal halide(picked up for $35) but I'm waiting to put it on another tank. No corals in this tank. Just feather dusters. I'm not sure how anyone can afford corals around here. The cheapest frag anemone in MI is $20-30.

I just shipped heathd 12 different kinds of coral...and probably near a total of 17 of total frags for $115 shipped. Thats $6.76 a frag. Not unheard of, but not too shabby either. You need to start searching the reef forums and what not for people that want to sell you frags. Way cheaper than ordering any other way. That being said sometimes LFS's have frag blowouts where things are really cheap.

I am having computer problems...so I cant upload any RECENT pictures...but I have one from about a year ago. If I can find it in my recover files...

My 75. Here is the build thread on it. http://monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=348198
Since I need to take updated pics, I will take pics of all the goodies I get from Fleshy. On top of that, I am getting some stuff in from IPSF

I had a larger tank with leathers and mushrooms and lots of fish, but I ended up selling when I moved. I'm just starting to get back into it, but with just a power compact on the tank my coral options are low. As for filtration, I use floss filter in back. The nano are so small they don't have any options for nice skimmers, and the nano skimmers suck. That's why I'm starting a 40 breeder. Great lighting options and space. Just about to start my diy cabinet.
