How much did you pay?
i checked out that elite aquarium today, and he quoted me for $800 with a stand.

If you're going that route, have you considered the Red Sea Max?

KennyKen 11-26-2007 03:31 AM

No actually, i havent really looked at them.
i will take a gander now though.

KennyKen 11-26-2007 03:40 AM

well i have compared the specs on both, even though there is a more volume in the red sea, and i do like the the t5 aspect...the JBJ HQI looks a little nicer. and for the most part the price isnt much diffrent

Der_Iron_Chef 11-26-2007 05:47 AM

Hmmm. Actually, I think you're right :)

Just got my 28g JBJ HQI today, looks impressive.
So tonight i figure is as good a night as any to stay home, order some zza and set this baby up.

Cant wait to start a thread about once it is cycled.

So i have just been able to set up my nano last night, and if you cant tell this is my first setup.
Im just curious about a few things, should i remove the media in the fuge and replaces them with LR rubble or LS to make it an authentic fuge? there is a sponge, carbon and ceramic rings.
Also, my airpump has 2 outputs for hoses, but it only came with one hose from the pump to the skimmer, should the second output be plugged?

Thanks for any input you can give.

I think most nano-cube owners scrap the media in the back and mod it a bit for LR and macro algae.

Have you ever been over to nano-reef.com ? lots of great info on nano-cube mods. :)

both outputs from the airpump Tee together into one line to feed the skimmer.

As far as the media goes i took it all out and filled the basket with live rock rubble.
