Sprayin's Nano
Here is my Nano: It is a small reptile container, It holds 5 cups of water. I am using a Red Sea Nano Filter, Coralife 18 Watt PC, Retro fitted into the hood. I am currently debating on drilling but I like the challenge of the small amount of water it holds. Here are a few day 1 pics. I hope you enjoy.
Thanks,
Alan

I say you get a new tank.
And if you can stuff the cat to fit in it, you'll get MY vote!
(anyone else picturing Yosemite Sam when he dives off the high board into the bottle?)
