Like I said in my other thread, here is my work nano.


Tank Specs:


15 Gallon AGA Tank - front 10 gallons is display, back 5 gallons is sump/fuge - separated by two glass panes siliconed together (before I siliconed them together I painted in the insides of them black)

2 - powerheads for return pumps
15 lbs live rock
Cheato in sump/fuge
1 - in tank filter for larger particles and water polishing
2 - 50W heaters
75 watts of T-5 Lighting
2 - clownfish
1 - cleaner shrimp
1 - emerald crab
Bunch of snails/hermits
CC substrate

This tank provides a little cube of the ocean for my desk. Everyone who walks by has to kneel down and look at it. They are amazed at how such a small tank can survive and looks crystal clear. I do water changes religiously every weekend. I have had this tank going for almost a year now without any major issues. The water is pumped from the sump/fuge area by the two powerheads into the display portion of the tank and then it falls over the separator glass back into the sump/fuge. This keeps the watersurface agitated and clear of film.

Yeah i hear ya on that one. I have a tendency to work on the tank about every other hour, always doing something. It's funny when someone walks into my cubicle and I'm just sitting there staring at the tank....
