Nice ten gallon, way to get that hat to hold water!

KodiakBear · 11-09-2007, 02:14 PM

Great little tank! Hope my 10 Gal gets to being that nice.

Doot77 · 11-09-2007, 03:14 PM

Preaching to the choir here, I love my nano

kathywithbirds · 11-26-2007, 05:59 PM

You know, it occurred to me that BIG Al has a TEENY tank...

What's the psychoanalyzation on that one?

lcstorc · 11-26-2007, 06:23 PM

Beautiful nano.

Setting up one for $200 is the easy part.. it is the maintenance and additions that are wallet killers

Reefing is one small upgrade after the other. LOL!
It never ends

Nice chronicle Al! Great looking Nano! Your 90 is going to be the bomb, I can see it already!

Hey that's how I do my best work. If you can't "Preach to the chior" what's left? I love both of my Nanos.

Truer words have NEVER been spoken. Setting it up was the EASY part (financially speaking) but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I've enjoed it every step of the way even the tough times were good. I could have been doing a lot WORSE things than here at home with my wife mixing salt water and testing (doing that tonight actually). And it's become a PASSION rather than a hobby. And the best part of it is that she is sharing in this passion with me. When someone asks a "Reef Question" and Julie knows that answer my heart skips a beat. It makes me proud.

Thank you so much Scott. Honestly having you and the rest of the RS gang here to watch over me and help me out means a lot. Your kind words touch my heart and I really appreciate it all.

GeeWizzItsMe · 11-26-2007, 10:03 PM

I REALLY like your nano! Hope I can live up to the great nanos!

I didn't know Al had a teeny tank.

Ah Man! My condolences.
It looks great though. (shutup sickos)
