JBJ 24 Gallon Nano Cube
Well I had boughten the nano cube about 2 months ago, and was worried to set it up. My friend did not want a 60 gallon tank that he had anymore which included his fish so he decided to give them to me. We broke down his tank, and added everything from his tank over to mine including the Rock, Sand, water, and fish/crabs. After letting the Nano Sit for about 2 hours we went back to his house and put all the fish in my tank. They seam happier now, in a much neater enviorment(my friend wasnt paying much attention them anymore and it was full of hair algae) My tank has been set up for about a week and half now, and i will post pictures soon. if you have any constructive criticism please give to help me out.

Welcom to the TRT!!!!
First of all cool tank. Always nice to hear someone giving free stuff.
Tank looks great. I really like the clown. I have a blue damsel just like yours.
A lot of the people here will tell you that the domino and blue damsels wont get along with any other fish and that you should get rid of them but i have seen some fish get along just fine. I think they loopk great and as long as they get along keep them and enjoy them there.
Again great tank.

Yah, i was thinking about getting rid of the Domino. He's been pretty aggressive towards the Maroon Clown, and i heard they only get more territorial as they get older. The yellow Tailed Damsel hasn’t caused any problems yet. What i really want to get is a sting ray and a puffer, but i know i cant get either of those until i get a bigger tank.

yes but, both provide alot of waste into your system. IMO, puffers, eels, stingrays, etc... belong more to a fish only tank. I tried having a puffer and an snowflake eel, for about 2 years, they got big and I could never, never keep NO3, NH4, PO4's anywhere near acceptable levels for coraline, or any picky type of corals...
great tank and good luck.

btw, how u get so many big photos on one post? I thought 3 was the limit....

Thank you, i posted another thread asking about frags. I want to start getting some corals for my tank. I also want to get an anenome for my clown fish. I always see him rubbing himself in the sand, but i i've read its harder to keep an anenome then corals.

Thanks you guys. Heres a picture of my Feather duster which i cut a peice of the shell off. It was dead, it looks like he was injured more to the top also but i didnt want to cut to much so i still left about an inch or half inch of the clearn brown part of the tube.
