Nano Tanks

[Bryan47]

Hey guys!
So I'm going to be sleeping on a friends couch and he loves fish, in college when I bought my first freshwater tank he bought the same one the next day. So he said he would be totally cool with me setting up a nano tank so I can keep the fish I have,

I'm really looking at the Nuvo marine Nano tanks or a biocube. The Nuvo tanks are very affordable and only $100 for 10 Gallon and $200 for 20 Gallon. Since I just bought the led lights I can just hang one above and be good to go. 20 gallon is really a small as I would want to go. I can use a stand I have until I can afford to buy the appropriate stand. The biocube 29 would be about $280 new. The stand for the Nuvo 20G is $200 where as the biocube stand is $130 so they come out about even.

I was also hoping to maybe find a used biocube. But if I have to start new $200 is pretty cheap for the Nuvo and it is quite nice looking.
Anyone have experience with either or suggestions? Thank you !

I would prefer the nuvo over the bio cubes because they are nicer and it's easier to get the flow you want especially with corals where a biocube its a little more difficult

I have used both and the Innovative Marine tanks are a much better option.

Buy the one that you like that's in your budget. I would go for the biggest nano I like in the 28 gallon range more stable than 12 or 14 gallons.

Well the 20 Nuvo looks great because I have a stand I can use for now and I just bought 2 of these 165 LEDs so one would do just fine.

Any other suggestions, right now it's looking like Innovative Marine Nuvo 20G. BRS doesn't sell just the tank so I'm going to see if any LFS can order it. If not marine depot.
