nano

I recently had to downsize my 220 gallon tank dew to moving later this year but I couldn't really give it all up lol. So I've kept a few corals and set up a little 10 gallon nano tank with a hang on back refugium. Since I can't post pics on this site from my iPad for some reason I'll post...

I was just wondering if it would be doable to create a small nano saltwater reef tank. I was thinking something as small as 5 gallons and have a low tech setup with an anenome and maybe some small saltwater fish. Is it possible? I have a freshwater planted tank right now and want to move on to...

Finally! It's ready! I have been contemplating on setting up a shrimp tank for a few months back and now it has become a reality! I'm gonna be so addicted to this tank for sure! Even though it is just a cute, mini tank.. Hahaa! Info: 10litre(3 US Gal) Gex HOB Filter Cooling Fan 10xRed Rili...

Just saying hi and introducing myself.   My name is Jen and I just purchased a little fluval edge 6 gallon with a couple live plants and a nice piece of driftwood.   A cute little assassin snail must have stowed away in a plant because he's the sole inhabiter of my little aquarium.   I'm cycling...

Hello,  Here is my Aquaone 30 set up,     Aquaone 30  Blue LEDs added to the LED lighting  Ceramic Media bag added to the filter area (under the sponge) Floss removed,  found filter works better without it Sponge added to the filter inlet (shrimp sucked in initially, managed to rescue them!)   ...

I have been tossing around an idea for a DIY wall-mounted nano tank for a few days and I decided to I either needed to start on it, or I would end up driving myself mad.     So, with that said - that time is now!  Since this will be my first nano build (I have been involved in larger builds) I...

I am thinking about starting a custom built nano tank / biotope and this may sound like a weird question, but is what the smallest tank (in gallons or liters) that would be feasible for any type of aquatic life?   For instance, a few inverts or a single Betta? I have never owned a Betta, but...

Hey everyone,    On Wednesday I bought the Tetra Complete LED Aquarium 5. It came with a 5 gallon tank, hood, small led light, tetra whisper micro filter and some free samples of various tetra products. Plant wise, it currently has a small amount of java moss and two baby java ferns from my 10...

I found this fluval edge 6 gallon tank on craigslist for a good deal and couldn't pass it up so I will be making it into a nano reef tank. Hopefully I will have it set up and cycling by next week after that time permitting I will post updates once a week. So if you want to come along for the...

Hello All - I'm new here. We have just bought a couple of nano tanks and we are both lucky enough to work in laboratories. This gives us unfettered access to grade II laboratory RO/DI water and water test kits, which is good given our local water isn't ideal for tropical tanks. We'd like to do...

Have just bought a 12L nano tank and am going to start cycling it when the heater arrives. Will be following TTA's guide for beginners as I've cycled to much higher ammonia levels before and am hoping his method will speed up the process. My last one took 36 days so fingers crossed! I wouldn't...

Well, this journal is going to about my 22l / 5.8 US gal AquaOne Nano tank to try for the first time for me to do a high tech planted tank.   Previously in that little tank, had low tech plants, Endlers and Red Cherry shrimps, decided to give these guys an upgrade to a larger 10 gal tank and do...

Well I got my 25 gallon all set up about 3 weeks ago and it is now cycled. I got a new little clownfish his name is Stewie a skunk cleaner shrimp named Rupert and two red legged hermit crabs named tick and tack. These are my fist saltwater fish so I'm pretty excited to have them and I can't wait...

Hi Finally I put some artificial plants in my tank and I am uploading pics here. Its still very rudimentary but my fish are happy.   Volume: 30 L Dimensions : 13*13*11" Fauna: 4 Guppies Flora: artificial/plastic   front view       side view:       :)

I recently bought a little bowfront Aqua One Aquamode 300 on eBay for £25 and have decided to plant it up for some shrimp. It's not fully planted yet as the Lilaeopsis brasiliensis that I bought didn't arrive. Also going to add a black background so that the filter and heater blend in a little...

Hi everyone :)   I am considering starting up a new nano aquarium (no more than 70lt) and I need some advice on the best way to go about setting it up and what to stock it with? I was thinking along the lines of cardinal tetra'a and some nano shrimp like bee's and cherry's but I would really...

Hey guys, so as some of you may know I was gifted a little friend for my birthday. His name is Fred and he is a blue Betta. At the moment he's living in a 1 gallon glass box because that's all I have.   Here we have Fred's current home (worst. place. ever).     Some pics of Fred:      Well...

Here is my first picture thread, of my 14 gallon Nano cube.                 This is how it looked on Day 1....     

So im starting to plan using an old 5 Gal (may be 6 Gal [roughly measured tank then converted to vol]) tank I found in the GFs mums garage! (oh-ey!)   This week I will dirt the tank and fill with water from my 50Gal then leave it until the filter arrives... Then fishless cycle there after The...
