Thanks fhj. Yeah, I wanted to leave some holes for some corals to grow out of. Just not sure what to put in them yet. Maybe a bubble or trumpet. I think I'm done buying sps for now. Think I'll just let the ones I have grow. Djbacon, a few post back it shows how I anchored the rocks. I used thin plastic rods and drilled holes in the liverock. Btw, nice work on your 14G, you got some nice coralline growth. I had some but when I rearranged my rocks all the coralline died

Guess I'll have to wait another few months to get some back.

Thanks for the comments, always appreciated

OK now I get it.

You see I was trying to figure out how in the world you could use eggcrate over the tank and still get light through.

You see I am in the medical field and eggcrate to me is blue and foam absolutely not what you guys are talking about

gotta love the english language. glad I saw this thread

now where do you get YOUR eggcrate? my kind you can get at Walmart etc
there are no LFS within 150 miles of me, can I order it. Although I like your look better, don't know if I am that capable.

Thanks

very nice looking nano! hey MH light and maybe the skimmer you used? what are the dimensions of the rear compartments? i'm wondering if the back of my tank would accommodate the added hardware.

it has been a while. reefsurf, the mh i am using is Coralife 24 Inch Aqualight Pro, 1x250W HQI Lamp + 2x65W CF Lamps Sq. Pin + 2x1W LED. The skimmer I am using is the Tunze Nano DOC Protein Skimmer 9002. As for the dimensions of the back of the tank, I am not sure. I cut out the back to make more room and put in an overflow box. Here is a pic of the back to give you an idea of the size.

Here is a pic of the back cut out.
