Re: Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

ATM im renting a house until I find one that my wife and I like.
I've been without a tank since june and its starting to wear on me. So, i've decided to start a nano in the mean time.
I have nevr had a nano so i'll be researching them and needing help on lighting ideas. Im thinking about my 175 mh i have in storage, my skimmer and a 20 gal. sump.
Any idea's anyone has will be appreciated.
not sure what size main tank i want yet and am planing on going out to look at a few.
When i set the 120 back up Im going to upgrade the lighting and skimmer, so the stuff i have now should work well on th nano.
I have two 175 wat. mh's and a nautilus SE skimmer.(in sump)
any main tank suggestions?
look forward to all your input out there

Re: Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

Hi all thought id update this thread now that i finally bought a camera
I finished the tank, replacing the front pane with starphire glass and puting a stainless steel euro brace on it. I made the frame for the stand/cabinet and will be posting that soon. hope you all like the tank.

Re: Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

Great to have you back! I decided to go starphire on the front panel of my new tank too. Boy is that stuff expensive! Nice coast to coast.
What size is the tank?
