    Default couple questions

    hey guys, tomorrow i will be acquiring a 24g nano. i was wondering what do people have in the back chambers? i want to keep mostly sps but with some others as well. i will be getting a 150w mh with the tank. but i also have a 250w hamilton mh that i was going to use on my 54 gallon. which should i use? also does anyone know where i could get an affordable stand for it? or is anyone trying to get rid of one on here? also i am not sure what kind of tank it is but this is what it looks like

    ya so any ideas or concerns please let me know

    i just have a sponge and live rock in the back of mine(jbj 12g) i cant help much with the lighting im still learning, as for a stand i bought one of those ready made kitchen cabinets at home depot for 40 bucks and painted it black, all i did was glue a piece of wood on the top, lots of storage room.

    Looks from the sticker on the bottom right of the picture that it's a nano-cube brand. I'd go with the 150MH on that.

    I have a 24AP that is doing very well with 100W T5HO, 150W might be OK, but 250 is def way too much.

    I emptied the rear chambers, save for the recirculation pump. It is a handy place to run carbon, purigen, or phosphate sponge as needed. Aside from that, I leave them empty. Rubble and Bioballs are nitrate builders.
