I know I will have to dremel out part of the hood to make it work, but I think it can fit in the middle compartment in the back ... it will not have a very high flow rate, but it doesn't need to. If I have a 10 G sump and it is only 10G/hr flowrate then that is turning the water 24 times a day...

something like this for a nano cube would be nice http://www.melevsreef.com/sump.html Obviously it would need to be smaller to fit in the back of the nano cube. I have a 24 G nano and I am thinking of trying to do something like this to get water out the back of the cube and into a 10...

When I thought originally about having an aquarium I was pretty turned off by rainbow colored substrate in tanks with scuba men, plastic/fake looking plants, and 20 fish all from different species. Then I discovered websites that showed natural looking underwater scenes that used live plants...

I am looking for some ideas, opinions, or websites concerning reef design and live rock placement. (especially for nanos) I setup my fresh water aquarium (12G Eclipse) about a year ago and found a ton of usefull info on substate design and plant / wood / rock placement. This was very...
