~Lets see your nano aquascaping~

I forgot to add...how large is you tank?

Thanks. :rollface:
The tank is 140l. there is a small sump to house Aqua Medic Turboflotor 1000 multi, deltec carbon fluidiser, korallin calcium reactor. I use 1x400w 20000k blv lamp.
I'm a bit dissapointed with colours of my acros. Most of them became much darker since they move form main tank. I hope they will come back to their full potential soon.

This is a side shot of the tank:

I keep there mostly gobies

 

[Mr. Eko]

Wow, thats a sweet setup. What is your flow?

At the moment:
eheim 1260 return from sump and 2 maxijet 1200. I'm thinking of adding tunze stream. Not sure though.
Thanks for your comments

Here is my 29 gallon.

This torch coral has three heads.

The LFS called this one a Pagoda Cup Coral.

You can call it a Turbinaria peltata, to impress your girlfriend.

It's been well over a month and this little thing is doing great. I still want to glue rubble to the filter tube in the center and the let polyps and stuff attach. I have eagle eye zoa's, green star polyps and mushroom doing great. I don't know the volume of water, bout a pint. it's filtered by a aqualifter pump. Light is a desk lamp that's why it's so yellow.

Well i will attach our two nano reefs. Don't laugh!

First is the 20 High gallon Reef. This tank has pretty much established itself. Been setup for about a year and a half now. We converted a 20 high into a refuge below it as well.

Fish:
Midas Blenny
Firefish Goby
True Percula Clown
8" Engineer Goby

Cool Inverts:
Fire Shrimp
Pink banded serpent star
Black Limpet (Refuge only)
Purple Lobster (Refuge only)

Next is Our nano 5 1/2. It is home to my pair of Harlequin shrimp. I love these little guys!

And a close up of the pair on their bounty

 

[Mr. Eko]

Wow, those shrimp look sweet.
What kind of lighting do you have on that?

Quaz- Can you specify on what type of light that is and what you flow is? And BTW, what is that thing in the middle?....ive been wanting to do a tiny tank like that, how are you liking it?




Okay, now we've gatta vote on the best nano in this thread=-)
Ill post mine tomorrow cuz ive gatta get my homework done.

How does the Linckia star survive in a tank like that?

 

[Quatro]

He doesn't. Supper is prepared.

Those shrimp eat nothing else but seastars. So realistically he doesn't. In the last picture you can see a bit the male Harlequin shrimp eating the entrails of the seastar. How cool?!

Lighting on the 5 1/2 WILL be a Coralife Aqualight. Those 9" ones. Right now it's an inc. fixture with two 14wt compact flos.

On the 20 gal we have pc 10000k All glass compact. 55wts

Dosen't feeding them get expensive?

 

[quaz]

Hey Raquee that's expensive lunch isn't it.

- Wooden Nickle, The light is a plain alarm clock desk lamp 3" above the surface. The container is an old bubble filter. The filtration is an aqua-lifter pump like the ones found on cpr cs overflows. It basically works like an undergravel filter. It works with air line and has a miniture canister filter like addition before the pump that i can put carbon in. The only thing that I would change is to have the return line go into the display. Right now, that's what you see in the middle and it goes under the sand at the same place as the intake.

 

[quaz]

i've got chaetomorpha algae in the back for filtration and this is a picture when it was first set up. You can see my blue leg crab on the right causing my zoanthids to close up. It's a pretty fun tank. I'll be adding a neon goby soon.

 

[Mr. Eko]

Looks good, how big did you say the tank was?
Im too lazy to look back a page=-)

 

[quaz]

I don't know. probably about 12 oz.
