    This gal thinks it looks GREAT!
    Looks like we have the same Nano. You have lots of coral in there I know mine have really grown well. Much better than I had expected.

    How many and which fish do you have in there, and what corals?

    Those are all beautiful fish. Can a 12 gl support that?

    i told my wife that as soon as i posted that pic somebody was gonna jump on the fact that the fish in the corner was not a tomato, i missed it in the original pic. actually, that was 1 of 2 false percs that were in the tank before the tri color chromis kick their butts until i had to remove them.i replaced them with a tomato clown that i knew could take on the tri color just fine. he was harassed at first, but he took only a little of that before he turned the tables. all is fine now.

    You have a purple tang in a 12 gallon nano?

    I am ususally the last person in the world to open my mouth about big fish in small tanks, but that is quite possibly the biggest case of poor judgement I have seen in this hobby ever.

    I truly hope this is a VERY temporary home for this fish.
