12 Egg's 12 Gallon Nano

[12_Egg_Omelette]

The tank is a 12 gallon JBJ Nano Cube with a AI Sol Blue Led, a local reefer got out of the hobby to move for dental school so I acquired some of his frags, and I'm really pushing the limits for what I can hold in this guy.

Here is the tank once I first set it up this year. I was briefly into the hobby back in 2003-2004 for a year and then closed it down to being in college, set it up when my wife and I went back home to california and I took her to the monterey bay aquarium, she just fell in love with the reefs. The tank has been up since the beginning of January. shortly after setting it up.

Sweet man. Love the black and white pic of the porcelain crab. Cool little dudes!

Thanks the pictures were taken after a 50% water change so everything was super mad and out out tons of slime. Everything is going on the rock this weekend I think.

I was worried about attaching them since I'm moving shortly but man might as well have it look nice then just storing stuff on a frag rack.

Veri nice! Wow lots of light for that tank. My very first SW tank was a JBJ NC 12G in 2005.

What camera did you use to take those nice pictures?

[12_Egg_Omelette]

A buddy of mine who shots sporting events came by he's a reefer also and snapped these photos. He brought two camera a couple lens and a tripod. I believe he uses a cannon body.
