    Lighting problem on a Nano 12 DX

    I guess when the ballast went the way of the DoDo, it decided to take my brand new bulbs with it! :burningup $40 later I have two new bulbs in and it works fine again. Thanks to those who offered their help.

    Lighting problem on a Nano 12 DX

    There is no starter under the hood, only a circuit board that the fans plug into. The fuse blew on the old ballast, presumably when the rest of it melted down, but the fuse on the new hood is good. I'm going to call Chris at Nanotuners this afternoon. He offered to troubleshoot it for me...

    Lighting problem on a Nano 12 DX

    I decided it was time to replace the light bulbs, splash shield, and gasket on my 12 DX. I ordered new bulbs and splash shield from JBJ. I unplugged the ballast before I took apart the lid and put the new parts in. When I had finished, I plugged the ballast back in. SPARK! SPARK! POOOFF...

    Any want to sell frags in and around Irvine, California

    Where is this store located? I live in Corona, and go to Tong's fairly regularly and am looking for an alternative store with some unique frags. I agree with what you say about Tong's fish. Buy with caution!

    Marine Fish Clipart

    Sadielynn, Although they are no clipart, some of them may have worked but they are such low resolution that by the time I photoshopped the fish out of the picture and enlarged it, the picture was very blurry. Thanks for the try. I guess I may be S.O.L. :cryinga:

    Marine Fish Clipart

    Tim, I thought about using pics from my 135 reef, but they won't work for what we want to do. We usually print out each different part of the display board (Problem, Hypothesis, Data, Conclusion...) over top of a clipart background that is related to the topic. So we were looking for some...

    Marine Fish Clipart

    Does anyone know of a website or software that has good quality reef fish clipart? I've tried a Google search and came up with very limited resources, mostly Finding Nemo junk. For her 7th Grade Science Project my daughter set up 12g Nano and documented the Nitrification cycle of the startup...

    Metal Halide System

    Thanks for the links! I'd love to enter the contest, but my nano is just finished cycling and still pretty ugly. Gotta give it a few months to get going first.

    Metal Halide System

    My 12 gal nano has finished cycling and now I'm thinking I want to upgrade to MH lighting so I can keep a clam in the tank. Is there a preferred way to do this? Are there complete systems available for the nano's out there? I don't have a problem tossing the stock DX lid system if theres a MH...

    Oily Stuff on Water Surface

    Thanks for the info. Is there a thread that describes this modification, perhaps with pics for the newbies in the group??? (Probably wishful thinking on the pics!)

    Oily Stuff on Water Surface

    I've had my 12 gal Nano set up for about two weeks now. Its cycling still. The water surface has the typical oily residue floating on top. Unlike my 135 reef, the oily stuff does not seem to flow into the overflow box. I have the water output nozzle already aimed up toward the surface to try...

    Difference Between Basic 12gal Nano and DX

    I went to the dealer yesterday afternoon. They were very cool about it. The only difference is in the entire hood assembly, which is easily swapped out. The guy working in the warehouse was new and didn't know there was a difference. Plus, they were out of stock on the Deluxe model. To make...

    Difference Between Basic 12gal Nano and DX

    I did check their website, and it appears they are the same except the lighting setup. I was asking those who actually have or had them if this the only difference.

    Difference Between Basic 12gal Nano and DX

    Newbie to Nano's here, looking for a quick schooling. I just bought a nano cube on Ebay and picked it up. I paid for the 12-gallon Nano Cube DX. The seller was a local distributor, so I went and picked it up. When I get home and set it up, I plugged in the lights and see it only has one...
