alright, well i did it, i went to petsmart and bought the minibow. they didnt have any nano cubes but im starting to think that while at amazonia i saw a tank that was the same bowed front and shape like the nano cube but without the filtration in the back. since im planning on drilling all these tanks i think i should look into that system instead.

chris,

thanks for the compliment on the drawings! lol, i actually use a mac version of mspaint :P i just draw a bunch of lines and get lucky that folks are able to understand what im talking about.
