Tab's Offspring get's a nano


I'll be setting up a 20H for my boy here in the next week or so. I guess I could post a few pics. Nothing fancy. Going to stock it with LR and lower flow/light critters from my 70. 130w old PC fixture, a bargain skimmer, maybe an HOB filter for carbon, sand from my 70 and a simple powerhead for flow. Top of will be a simple kalk drip over night.

The reason is that I am rigging up my 70T for SPS and I wanted a home for my LPS critters. That and it gives me another tank. That makes 6 tanks in the house now.

well right now the 20 is acting as a "seeding" tank for the base rock I bought to replace the rock I will be taking out of the 70. Still waiting on the dirt cheap skimmer for the 20. I am still fleshing out ideas. But things are coming together well.

Skimmer should arrive this week. I have all I need to start the conversion so it'll be going down here pretty soon. Pics included.
