New 3 gallon nano


Well, I got off my butt and made my 1st acrylic tank. It is 18" long and 7" wide and tall, just around 3 gallons. I am going to use it as a zoo and shroom tank!!!!

It is lite by a single 13 watt PC, hope to add more....Everything cost my around $13 for the live rock...everything else I had on hand and the acrylic was scrap from an acrylic shop that they just gave me!
