Hi Its ramora

Well I know with the small size of a nano stability is big issue however I am considering a 12 gallon aquapod with good skimmer & spartan fish population. However with weekly water changes which I personally love to do one can still have a thriving reef.

However I also agree that those who aren't willing to put into a tank this size the hard work necessary
should go with a tank of a larger size as a general rule.

However I also believe that they do have their own advantages.

Pros And Cons For Nano tanks

1. ease of water changes.
2. most of the necessary equipment is included.
3.cost.

1. extra labor intensive.
2. Often overstocked by uninformed beginners.
3. Less species of fish & sessile invertebretes can safely be housed togather.
4. Low margin for error.

Pros And Cons for larger tanks

1. Greater Stability.
2. Higher stocking ratios
3. Easier to find equipment for.

1. Often not allowed in top floor apartments{water issues}
2.Higher Cost.
3. space.
