My new NC 12DX

[gordon2726]

Hi guys,

I got a NC 12DX 2 1/2 weeks ago. Please see below for some pictures.

I. Tank/Equipment/Lighting
1st chamber: 1 x Sponge + live rock rubbles
2nd chamber: 1/3 rock rubbles + cheatos
3rd chamber: MJ1200 pump + heater + rock rubbles + chemi pure
Surface Skimmer
Dual Nose Flow
2 x 24W PC STOCK
10lbs of fully cured live rock
10lbs of live sand

II. Live Stock:
2 x Ocellaris Clowns
6 x Blue Leg Hermit Crabs
1 x Strawberry Crab
Some Corals

My Tank was cycled very quickly due to using fully cured rocks, water from existing tank and live sand.

All comments welcome.

I started this hobby 2 1/2 years ago with a 150G tank + 30G sump then it was taken down after a year. Then I got a NC 24DX and start modding it but again it was taken down after a year. Both tank was too much to maintan. Hopefully this 12G will be easier. Please see below for some pictures of my previous NC 24G DX modded tank.

Wow, both your previous tanks looked great. That NC24 was hooked up! haha. Can't wait to see how this one turns out.

Thank you guys. I want to keep my NC12 as simple as possible. Maybe some LPS, softies...zoos etc.

It did a good job keeping everything right (alk, cal + top off) but every week, I need to make sure that the tubes doesn't clog up.
