I like the in-tank refuge... Nice idea!

The actuall placement of it was the hardest part. i was going to do a flowerbox style along the side wall at mid hight. then just he whole side of the tank. now im debating having the inlet of my nano skimmer inside this to increase flow a bit. i think it worked out well as its a reasonable size and really doesnt take away from the tank size.

Thanks to doug for cutting the acrylic for me. the holes arnt excatlly semetrical as i free handed it i was just in a hurry to get it in. you probably wouldn't even notice if i didnt tell. not off by much.

Now Ill remember to dock points off in the end of the competition....:biggrin:

Feel Free :mrgreen: between my roomate moving out and other crap im just happy to have water in it at this point.:wink:

I have no water :cry:

Future LS and prices Updated.

Thanks to red coral and kevin for hooking me up with a great deal.

Got the nano skimmer in today and think i have found a rock formation that i can live with..... For now:wink: all that is left is too get the 2 pep shrimp i have in there taking care of some aptaisia out then put in contest LS. if the surface skimmer works aswell as i think it will then this could work out nicely. :mrgreen:

PS anyone have any nano fish they want to get rid of ? Cheap?

any pics with the skimmer. looks good so far.

its just a rio nano skimmer with the surface skimmer attatchment from a aqua clear filter. i will try to get a pic tommorrow but ive don a decent job of hiding it.
