Custom 5.5Gal Nano
This is a custom acrylic Nano I built for my wife. It is the same display dimensions as a 5.5, but it also has a 4" wide sump in the back. MJ1200 is the return to 1/4" Locline. 25W heater and a 28W 50/50 PC light. Tank has no skimmer. I am going to be making myself another one to replace the AGA 5.5 I have now.
I would like to thank Greg for showing me the skills to be able to make this.

Nice Bob. All that time breathing in acrylic shavings has paid off!

Do you think it was from the weight of the rock you had glued to the mag-float?
