    Hi from a newbie, planning my nano

    Tim, Thanks, I will probably just put a sponge in for 1 day, now and again, and otherwise I will just use the power head and rock approach. Unfortunately, there has been a delay in getting the tank made. :sad: I had hoped to have collected it yesterday, but it looks like it will be...
