Current Nano Setup

Tank is still thriving, despite the problems with my pico. Live all the chaeto I get out of the back! I trade it for coral!

Was the pico ever treated with copper as a fw tank?

How do u make that screen top for the Bowed cube?

 

[Nano101]

I used a standard screen kit from the hardware store, then for the bowed part, I cut the screen for the missing part, then siliconed it to the under part of the rest of it (on the front part of the frame). It was going to be a temp screen until I had one custom made, but I'm happy with how it looks and works

Looks great! Nice job. Those NPS nems can sure be nasty but look so cool!

Any idea how to get rid of bristle worms when my coral is attached to my live rock? I can take everything out. They must be in the crevices of the LR. Yes, I know I should have dipped every piece of coral before I put it in my tank. 10 years at this and I still make dumb mistakes. I've been dipping the floor pieces of coral and killing what I can, but it has to be such a small percentage of the tank. Should I not worry about them? Never had bristle worms before.

Free clean up crew that only comes out at night, you no want?

Afraid of getting too big and ratings things they shouldn't. Being too paranoid?

love ur tank

Thanks man! One year this month since I stripped it down and rebooted it. Very happy with all my equipment choices. Nothing dramatic has really happened. I lost a clown, but think it was due to not getting enough food, or just age (about 7 years old). My only problem is I am out of room for coral! I might get a magnetic rock for the back wall, do some more sps. The 3 sps that are in there now are really thriving

You can catch the big ones with a trap. If you have poop eating ones they usually stay that way. I have heard the horror stories too and after digging into the issues sounds like the tank had a crash and the worms get the blame for cleaning up or something was added with bad worms.

Love my skimmer!

Love my skimmer!

i love the aqua c remoras as well. Do you have a surface film on your water surface? I modded mine to draw off the surface, and its the best thing i ever did.

Mine is in the back chamber of the fugue on my nano. But the water that flows through there is from a surface skimmer

Looks great! Nice work

I think I killed two aiptasia last night with super glue underwater. Covered them whole over the live rock. I googled it and saw other people have tried this. I thought I though of something new. Lol. We’ll see if it works.

Also found two small strawberry anemones yesterday while doing some close inspections
