Flames Nano Entry


Tank = 7.5 gallons
Refuge = 7.0 gallons May vary depending on stand design
Sump = 7.0 gallons May vary depending on stand design

Soft Coral, Clean up crew, Unknow fish

No pictures available yet will be ordering the Acrylic for the project this week after the plans are completed.

He needs all that for the stand to canopy I think and the size is what ever. Just the judging will be better on smaller then larger tanks. George.

OK I need some assistance. Has anyone seen DIY skimmer layout that will fit in small sump about 12 to 14 inches high. I have been looking for the past couple of days with no luck. Thanks in advance

Great news half of my acrylic order came in Friday. Bad news if UPS can find the other half of my order I can get started. Got to love brown.
