Denadai, your colors have improved so much. The tank looks great!

Wisesam, thanks. It's kind of a pain though. The corals that are mounted horizontally come pretty close to the front glass making it difficult to get my hand in there. I wish the same rock structure was in a 60gal cube

Does 45G count as nano?
If it does, here's my 45G cube :wavehand:

Not the best pics sorry poor camera, but the best I could do. This is my 20G Long I just upgraded to a 75G Rimless and the final corals were moved over a about a week ago.

Anybody had success in a 3.5 gallon. Im planning one, have plenty of frags to try.

I had a 3g at my dorm with SPS, they survived with color, but not much else.
Def get a sump and an ATO if you can.

@cthedaytrader & @Tswifty:

What kind of lights were you using on the set ups and how far away from the water were the bulbs??

...I have a 18" cubed tank with a 250 watt Lumenmax 2 @ 12" over the water and I would really like to find the sweet spot before I get it filled with water.

I had a 150W MH, with two 24 inch VHo actinics and I kept it at 8inches above the tank.

chingchai,
