Yeah im from The south coast. I have kept a nano in the past but had to shut it down due to work commitments and eventually replaced it with a 125g reef - how does that work I hear you ask??? I actually found the nano hard work. I would use a skimmer but thats just my opinion - as previously stated the hardest thing is finding an effective one that is not mega pricey! good luck i look forward to seeing the pics of this!

Some more pictures:

And the skimmer I have no idea to use.... it seems so simple that it must be complicated..

All this talk about a nano makes me want to do one too lol im thinking a 14gal

GoldieLocks1 · 07-24-2011, 01:00 PM

Oh this is good news! Would be pretty awesome if you did. Then we would have three new build threads to enjoy! Counting you Mj. Lol

Mjpendrey · 07-24-2011, 07:57 PM

Yeah id love to buy one now but me and friends are doing a last min deal so I have to keep money for that. Good idea though by the time your back off your hols you won't have too much waiting around todo, have you found the stand any cheaper than £69.99?

GoldieLocks1 · 07-25-2011, 08:22 AM

Ooo. Not going too off topic. But where are you going? I haven't found one cheaper.

Nano Aquarium Stand with door :: Marine :: Aquariums, Tropical Fish, Marine Fish, Pond Pumps and Aquatics.

I'm not even sure if that is the one that goes with it..but it says so on the site. I will ring them later though.
