Nano add on tank
 
I'm going to build a nano add-on to my system so I can house box fish, seahorses, and other slow swimmers.

The build should be easy, my return manifold is already plumbed with valves and unions.

I'm thinking about a starfire cube, dimensions either 12", 14" or 16".

I like the clean look of ninjafish's cubes, but my plumbing needs to be a bit more complicated.

I think I'll build it myself, just buy the glass froma local supplier. I know Tony has recommended glass guild in the past.

Any thoughts, comments or ideas?

I have a 16" starfire nano cube in my office. Not sure who built it, but it came out of Calgary. You might want to look at my build thread (http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=44284)

I can tell you I enjoy the size of the 16" cube. Just big enough to leave you some room for mistakes...lol. I also really like the clarity of starfire, but I think it takes more work to clean it and I hear it scratches more easily too.

Thanks Mark, is your glass 1/2"?
