I've got two nanos, as I haven't been able to afford a bigger tank. This is my large nano, my 15 gallon. It has 166 watts of PC lighting. One 55watt 50/50 10k actinic 03, one 55 watt actinic 03, one 10k 26watt, and one 26watt actinic 03. It has a Prizm skimmer, DIY auto-topoff system, a 20 gallon refugium with base rock and caulerpa. the tank since this shot has had a MAJOR algae bloom, and I think it is because I had four fish in there for a while. I hope that it will soon become as nice as some of the other tanks I have seen in this thread.

Now here is my second nano that I JUST SET UP! ! ! !
It is an eclipse 3 gallon modified to fit an incandescent screw in type bulb. I have the coralife screw in 10 watt 50/50 PC bulb. I added an aquaclear 200 for circulation, and i have a lot of shells and some LR in there now. I am probably going to add some xenia, mushroom anemones, green star polyps, and maybe some zoo's and see what happens. i may make this tank my mantis tank if I ever find one!

I've ony had the mandarin about 4 months and so far is doing good. The acro's grow OK light does not appear to be an issue(they would love a new MH!) but getting the right amount of water flow does. I have 3 pumps on 2 timers trying to avoid the toilet bowl effect. Here are some old groth comparisions

My Nano tanks
I just started two tanks a month ago.
I orginally started with an eclipse 12 but changed it to a glass bow 16 gal tank due to all the scratches that occurred during my live rock setup. 96 watts of pc lighting. The quad bulb 50/50. About 20 or so lbs of live rock.
Our family in the 16:
2 black clowns
1 yellow watchman goby
1 bi-color goby
1 BTA
I lost count of snails and hermits
1 Emerald Crab
1 striped bristle star fish
I would show a picture but I am not sure how to get it in the message block. Maybe someone could help me with it.
I attached the picture of my 7 gal. I will reply with a picture of the 16 gal until I figure out how to attach to the message area.
I also have a minibow 7 gal with 32 watts of pc lighting. 12lbs or so of live rock.
Our family in the 7:
1 maroon clown
1 neon goby
1 BTA
a bunch of nails and crabs
1 emerald crab
1 striped bristle star fish
