I am also concerned about lighting in my nano, but i am sticking with the stock 10k bulbs. I got replacements on the way and hopefully will start my build this weekend...

Your frags look pretty good.

 

[St.Pete_Reefer]

Thanks! How big is your tank again and how wide?

I have the JBJ Nano_cube DX 12 gallon tank, and it's 13" wide.

Wonder if my coralife light would work for your tank?

This is what i am going to use:

CORALIFE 24W 10K STRAIGHT PIN PC BULB

I messed up the order and only got one and the tank hood has two slots for bulds and i see Coralife offers a couple different bulbs for the tank but i don't know what the differences are and if they are beneficial or not for a reef tank.

CORALIFE 24W 50/50 STRAIGHT PIN PC BULB
CORALIFE 24W ACTINIC STRAIGHT PIN PC BULB

I was going to say I will have my 150w MH Coralife light for sale when I get my new one and it will go pretty cheap. You can see it on my tank in some of the pictures above.

I checked Cal and Alk yesterday along with NO3. All are still really high and the weird thing is CAL jumped up and I havent added anything to the tank or in it.

I bought the Matrix media to see if it will help on the NO3 issues. Some people I see use it in phosban reator so I will just add it and see what happens this weekend.

Testing new light. Loving it so far!

Do you get a lot of water splash or any with that tank. The tank looks great. I know DAS makes good tanks.

 

[Tampa_Bandit]

Do you know where the tank was purchased? I think you said you bought it from a friend. Do you know if he bought it local to Tampa Bay area?

Great looking Pics!!!

 

[St.Pete_Reefer]

No water splash unless snails on waterfall the trickle of water off their cones. You cant buy the tank anymore they offer a neo storm now but pricey. Check out cadlights my buddy is a dealer for them I can see if he can work a discount. Added a new sand sifter goby today.
