Well...Kayla must have never got around to takin' the shots, so here's a few to tide you over.
Some macro shots of some recently placed corals (have been in the tank, but just not got around to permenantly placing them).

Also, we've found a couple hitchhikers!!
1st is another acro crab (threw out the first before I found out he was safe). Apperantly, there was another one. (sorry no pic).
and then this guy (some sort of Nudibranch). Still waiting on the verdict for him:

Tank looks awsome. I think i may have devised a solution for a hood that doesnt let animals (Goby in mind) get out. Supposing that the hood you had was about 1/2 inch or whatever away from the edges of the tank. If you bought some winsheild squiges like they have at the gas station to clean your windows and took them apart. Then get the rubber "blade" that is used to take the water off the windsheild. Then it would be a mater of attatching them to the hood and have then spaced off the edge of the acrilic so that the water can still pass through uninterupted so you still have the look and functionality you are looking for but when a snail or a fish attempted to jump out it would be unable to get past the squigi. Just an idea i came up with. Feel free to elaborate or just not use it at all.

sorry...it's been a while for an update, cause the tank's in the basement. And the basement's being finished. At this point, most of the work on the Nano tank is moving it to safer places while the basement's being worked on, and covering the whole tank with a box from time to time (dont' want any drywall dust getting in the water).
The basement's scheduled to be finished here in a couple weeks, so after that, should be some good updates coming.
I apologize for the complete lack of updates...but the tank's still doing well.
