My 8 Oceanic Nano..So it begins.....

I would remove those funky looking rocks that look like branching SPS skeletons in the third pic. Ones in the bottome left and the other is on the right mid way up. Otherwise, it looks good.

Love the fuge
I have the 14 g and was wondering about the fuge... is the back just painted and you scraped it off?

 

[davidhughes85]

You just scrape it off with a razor blade....mine would have been a cleaner cut but I used a dull one

 

[aquarius77]

It looks good to me!

Thank you for the insight, it is much appreciated.

In the last pic it looks like you have something comming off the tank about 3 inches (its black) and then you have the wood box?
What is that and why or am i seeing this wrong ?

 

[davidhughes85]

haha no, its just the reflection of the box on the backpanel

 

[aquarius77]

I meant to say the second to last pic, its a view from the rear.

aquarius77,

What you see is the reflection of the box on the glossy back of the cube.

sorry its been sooo long....I got very busy and almost gave up on the hobby(was trying to sell my nano) anyways I took a look at my tank with its slowly dirtier and dirtier glass and different colored sand and thought man I was gonna make that thing kick *** and got back into it. Anyways went and cleaned it up bought a couple more corals and did the first water change/filter change on it in two months....i guess that means I did a good job with my mods haha, no crash. Will post pics tomm!

OK GUYS MY FIRST BIG ISSUE HAS RISEN.....for some reason my atnics wont turn on in the morning. If I leave the on button on all day eventually they come on...The only thing I can think of is that there is moisture getting in there somewhere and it dries out by the end of the day with the other light on. But I dont see any condensation on the inside of the clear casing. Any suggestions guys, my corals are suffering!!!

 

[GSMguy]

sounds like you have faulty wiring or ballast can you call your dealer and have them replace it?

i called oceanic support and played phone tag with him all day ill see if I can catch him tomm
