    But I don't have any idea where to start. I need suggestions for brands of tanks, filters, etc.

    Also ideas of what livestock would be awesome.

    I have a 12 gal nanocube dx. I love it, it is the only nano tank i've ever had, but thats besides the point.. It does a great job for me...

    I also have a 12 gallon nano cube. Setting it up is no different then setting up a larger tank.

    Taking care of it though, means paying much more attention.

    Stocking? - stay little, stay few.

    Can't agree more.


    As for aquarium suggestions, if you are looking for an all-in-one we gave away a Finnex Aquarium that looked real nice. Might be worth a look...
