Good luck on the cube. Careful with the powerhead intake, I had a nasty worm get chopped up in one that was so poisonous, it ended up killing most of the tank. Never a good feeling to walk in to dead pods floating on the surface...

That's pretty swanky man. I wonder if you're going to have enough light in that thing.

Thats going to be the mother of all nanos. Did you build the canopy yourself?

No, it was built by Matt Gecko, I think it might be the most clean and well built canopies I have seen.

Matt Gecko is an awesome canopy builder, he can be found on nano-reef.com
I am planning valley-type rockwork with only awesome and unusual SPS, zoos, rics, and a clam.

You have to tell them why its the Quarles acro

How are my zoos doin?

cpreefguy
Tue, 16th Aug 2005, 06:15 PM
Your zoos look the same, hopefully they will open up all the way.
It is the Quarles' Acro because it is named after who it originated from, Quarles, Ross Quarles.
