Well, after lurking for a long time I thought I'd finally post some pictures of my BC14. I've had a nano for nearly 5 years now, moving it back an forth between college and home during winter break and summers. I started out with a basic Nanocube 12 with the normal lighting, then gradually moved up to my current setup after a brief foray into a 40 breeder, which was just way too large to move when I'm not at school.
I've got a BC14 with no hood, and added a SunPod 150 watt halide with a 14k bulb. Additionally, I have a retrofitted hangon filter that's had a Novatec IceProbe chiller added to it to bring down the temp a little.
I run skimmerless and only do weekly 1 gallon water changes, occassionally I dose b-ionic calc. and alk. I've had pretty good success with my SPS and clam, though when I move back and forth I often lose one or two corals, which saddens and frustrates me to no end. I'll be done with school this May and will then be done moving and it'll be time to uprade, can't wait .
Coral list (from what I remember, I'm awful at names, some of these have been sold recently but are in pic)
Red Planet
Pink Sand Dollar
Red Eye Cyphastrea
Meteor Shower Cyphastrea
Green Slimer
Forest Fire Digi
Blue Polyp Monti
Pink Lemonade
Purple Digi
Red Acan
Green Acan
Red Digi
Palau Nepthea
Neon Green Toadstool
Green Birdsnest
GARF Bonsai
Purple Heart Zoos
... and a couple named ones whose names I've fogotten...
Pretty much out of space... can't wait to upgrade!
