Zack's JBJ 28 g Nano

[Michaelrunner]

So I'm pretty new to the Saltwater hobby, started my tank on December 27, 2015. My wife and I figured it would be something fun for me to have and we could enjoy it as a family as I have always wanted one. First issue.... This is very addicting. Where was the warning label. Second warning should be you are never satisfied with the size of your tank. Lol

Anyway we have a great LFS a few blocks from us so he set us up with the tank.

Things have been going great and I love R2R very helpful and friendly people.

How do you like the lighting? Is it LED? I have 2 biocubes and never got much growth from the stock PC lighting until upgrading them to LED.

Nice start I upgraded to Ecotech lighting and a silent drive mp10w it's right next to my bed can't hear it at all. It's great I also got a protein skimmer and upgraded the filtration section on the first chamber. Man I love the tank now I have almost no upkeep now just top off the water and feed that's it. I have all my rare LPS corals in 24g 5 scolys, a insane meat coral, and rare Pallys, from friends and clients. Plus 2 bubble tips and a platinum clownfish pair and long nose hawkfish that I got from a client that is a good friend. This hobby is addictive and full of pros great friends a way to make money and a hobby and pets that don't pee on your floor. Lol your tank looks great

Great choice! Love Kessil...I have 4 160's and their controller for 2 of them.

I now have my Kessil A360W. Love the look on my tank and it seems the coral is responding well to it too.
