Micro Nano Entry

I am going to try a <1 gal. entry. The tank will be 6"x6"x6" with a 2" live sand bed, live rock, PC lighting, a small hang on filter with rock crumbs, and whatever else that seems to work.

Sounds really nice man. You building the tank yourself? If so 9x6x6 with a false wall is a thought instead of the hob filter. IMO a tiny pico with no equipment showing is marvelous.

I'm not building the tank myself. I had a couple of Betta tanks kicking around. The light I have is about 20" long so I decided to do 2 tanks. I think with a 28 watt 50/50 compact I should have enough light for two 4" deep tanks. The mini HOB's seem to give plenty of flow. So far I have well cured live rock, 2" live sand, and a small clean up crew in each. I will most likely add some softie frags this weekend.
