Ok here is the plans for my nano if i decide to continue with it

It will be a learning experience as well as fun. I have a 10 gallon that will be home to mushroom's and GSP's. I will have one fish not sure on the kind maybe a chromis or a damsel.

Specs:
10 gallon tank
HOB filter.
No Skimmer
3-4" sand bed (yes a DSB learning experience)
10 lbs of LR


Like i said if i continue this is what i will have.

It will cloud for a while when you add the sand but thats sand clears fast compared to SD.

[Tim224DT]

Maybe i will fill it today and let it settle down then add rocks in a few weeks

Ok going to go fill it then post more pics LOL
