    First I figured I'd show you all my last tank that I upgraded from, It was a 35 gal cube with a reefbrite halide hybrid for lighting, I just ran out of room quick mainly because the internal overflow took up most of the tank lol, I moved all my coral over to the new tank and everything has continued to grow and do well., uploadfromtaptalk1393906845947.jpg

    Did you drill the tank or did it come that way (the nano)? Fantastic upgrade, I am jealous.

    Thanks! Really apreciate it, The nano I had was already drilled on the bottom and it had a huge internal overflow box that stuck out about 5 inches, And 5 inches of sand bed is quite a bit of room for corals lol so that's the main reason I upgraded.

    That's a clean setup. That sump is very shiny!
