    I was thinking of setting up a nano reef.Wanted feed back on what you guys/gals recommend.I looked into the 24g nano cube dx,but i heard the 2005and older models had problems w the glass cracking at the coners.Planing on keeping softies and other hardy corals,and A fish.

    Yup, you should definitely NOT get the 2005 model as they are prone to problems. Try to get the 2006 model, I think nanotuners.com has it.

    Another nano you might be interested in is the Finnex M-Tanks, they have all the bells and whistles AND they come with a built in protein skimmer and they are made of Acrylic, they come in 20 and 32G models. check it out. :D

    I am thinking of setting up a nano as well. I'm a little hesitant though based on the bigger is better and easier terminology. Less room for error in small tanks!

    Awsome :D
    I wish I had the time and money for another tank. Especially a nano. I have to be satisfied with the three I have running now.
    That is really going to be nice.

    great nano tank deal

    I just picked up a Oceanic 30 Gal. cube and stand for $176 at PetSmart, they are no longer going to carry the 30G cube and they are wheeling and dealing them out the door! Makes a fine Nano with plenty of room for a fuge under stand.
