Wow! Great little tank. I love how you did everything basically yourself.

Could you explain where you rerouted the airline tubing from your powerhead in the refugium in the back? How do you get it so there isnt a sandstorm in the main tank?

Thanks for sharing. Welcome to Nanotank. :thumb:

i saw a thread somewhere describing how he built the canopy, the curved peice started out as a 3-4" block of wood and he cut the radious from the block

You are multi talented, that is one great looking nano. I thought it was much bigger until I saw the pic of the refugium construction with the pencil in it. You should be very proud of that tank. Skip

The canopy and base is what amazes me the most about this tank...I got to learn how to make stuff like that... I love that stained wood look...(with the grains showing) Is the tank computer controlled? I see that computer connection in the back of the canopy..
