Thanks, Skip. I will research. Does anyone else have experience with a 2005 24g Nano Cube - good or bad? I don't think the 2006 models are shipping yet.

Skimpm, I'm looking at moving up to a 24 g DX Nano Cube - 2005 models are on sale, but have no surface skimmer included as do the 2006 models. I was looking back to your comment on skimmers. Will the protein skimmer you mentioned also keep the surface slick down like the surface skimmer? I'm...

Thanks, Skip.

Does anyone have experience with replacing a Nano Cube 12G OG (late 2004, so assuming it is an OG) top/canopy with a DX canopy? How different are the hinges and what must be done?

I put a skimmer into my 12 g NCube a few months ago and it does a great job. Before that I was seeing a surface slick. I put it on the left side in front of the double sponge filter area. The water level is just above the bottom of the holes. It is tricky to keep the sump level up. I have to...

Thanks all for your comments. If anyone else has experience or advice on this I'd appreciate it.

I need some advice from some of the more experienced nano folks. I've been following this website for several months, but post only infrequently. I’ve had a 12 gal Nano Cube (one 24 watt bulb) since acquiring it in June (original owner probably bought it in 2004). The tank is fairly easy to...

Nathan, I had e-mailed you a few days ago, but hadn't heard back. Are you interested in selling just the top? I have a 12 G w/ 24 watt, probably 2004 model. I might be interested depending on price and whether the hinges would directly work. I'm in South Florida. Sandi...

Yellow Watchman Goby My YW Goby has a voracious appetite and is eager to eat shrimp pellets & pieces of freeze dried shrimp (he grabs a piece from the stick when I try to feed the serpent star).

I had put a shotglass in my tank and the rep at the LFS said to take it out. She said some glass had lead in it which has caused problems with the fish. Anybody heard that as a problem?

Andre, Your 24 gal Nano looks great. I noticed you had a skimmer. I purchased one recently for my 12 gal. It works well getting the slick off the surface. My concern is that the left 2 compartments with ceramics & bioballs got really low. I tried adding water and using the bioballs...

The sand sifting star has been in the tank for over a year - long before I inherited it. He seems docile. The brown serpent star and flame scallop (not electric) have been in there for at least a couple months. We add zooplex for the scallop. I feed the serpent star pieces of clam/shrimp every...

Thanks for your comments. I inherited an established, but unattended 12 gal about 4 months ago - so still a newbie. Sure love my tank & critters, though.

What is the max # of fish in a 12 gal? I have a small flame goby, small yellow watchman, and a tiny neon goby. Am I maxed out or can I get a small percula (tank-raised)? I do a 20% water change once per week; clean filters & carbon once per month.

I inherited a 12 Gal non-DX from a neighbor. However, in doing research had noticed several on sale on eBay. If you buy one, would recommend DX (deluxe) version with two 24 watt bulbs vs. just 1 in my tank. I have to stick to low light corals. I'm thrilled with mine. Less tubes & stuff hanging...

Your tank looks great. I'm still a nano newbie, having inherited a 12 gal Nano-Cube a couple months back that I've been overhauling. I only have 24 watts of lights, so limited on corals. I have some green-striped mushrooms and recently added yellow polyps. I tried pulsing Xenia, but had...

I in herited a 12 G Nano (not DX; 24 watts only) about a month ago (already cycled) and have been revamping it; came with a Damsel and starfish + some limpets. I added a couple more pcs live rock, blue legged crabs, red-booted shrimp, brittle star, and green-striped mushroom coral so far. Was...
