I'm also building my nano right now! Wow yours really looks nice! Congrats!
I really like the white PVC! :beer:
Sorry cannot add much other than things are looking clean and oh the possiblities.

I too love the style of your aquariums. A few questions if I may...
-How does the ATI blend in being a tad longer than the tank? It looks great in pictures, I like the conduit too!
-How loud is the overflow? Looks like you used a durso?
Looking forward to watching the tank come alive. Keep us posted with pics!
Thanks Johnny! In reference to your questions,
-I wondered how the ATI would look, but it turns out to be very appealing, still.
-The overflow itself is quite quiet (It'll still be replaced by a Glass Holes box, due to aesthetics); the drain at the bottom is a little loud though.
I didn't have much water left in the sump once the tank filled, so I'm hoping a little more water will help with that. Thanks again! 
very nice. Without some sort of hydraulic short throw bender there is no way to get the 90's that close together.... I was angry to when I found this out after a few times bending it...lol...I'll post you a pic tomorrow tho. it's really easy all you need is a hacksaw, a drill and a 3 dollar part from lowes.
Thanks! What if I used 1" conduit for the back part with one 90 and then made the other 90 and hanging part with 3/4"? I could then slip the 3/4" into the 1" and drill a couple holes to keep it from rotating. I just don't know how that would look.
Thank you very much, Luke!
Thanks Stephen! Do you happen to have a thread started? Post a link!
Very funny!
The lock-line 90's will be here with a couple of days, and hopefully, by the end of the week, the overflow will arrive. Once those two things get here, it's bye-bye for the white PVC in the tank (and the durso pipe on the back)! I can't tell you how much that comment made me laugh, a good start for the day.

Your setup is looking sweet! Can't wait to see the scape.
Thanks for the kind words everyone!
I've added the salt to the system, and now I'm heading out to get some live rock! ...and hopefully swing by the hardware store for some more conduit.

Thanks!
Tomorrow's Plans
Well, the LFS I typically like to buy from was closed today. So...no live rock. :mad2: But, tomorrow they're open!
So, here's the plan:1. Buy live rock
2. Plan aquascaping
3. Buy more conduit for light rack
Thanks for following! More to come...

Aquascaping:
Here's a few shots of the rock work. I wanted to keep it simple; that's why I went with more of a column look. Once everything grows in, I'm hoping it'll be an attention getter.

I'm not a huge fan of the Flintstone's stacking look, but I'm hoping to have this thing so that you don't see much of the rock.

I'm not absolutely sure at the moment.
I've sold my BK mini 180 and ER 135.Thanks! Yes, I'm definitely going bare bottom. I love the look of sand, but I'm not going to fight the flow issues I find with it. That might change in the future.

Yeah, no kidding! I'm still not sure if that was the best idea.
...and they're even not open from Monday to Wednesday.
