What is a nano tank?
A nano tank is a tank that is smaller than conventional tanks used for the same purpose. IE, a nano reef can be a 20 gallon tank or smaller (there is no governing body that specifies that a 20 is the maximum though)
What do you need for a nano tank?
The same things you need for any other tank for the same purpose.
What do you put in a nano tank?
Tons of money, labour, sweat, blood, tears, corals, invertebrates, (small fish if any fish)
How much light do you need for a nano tank.
It depends on what you want keep in it. If your choice is to keep deep water sponges you won't need tons of light, if how ever you decide to keep SPS corals then metal halide is your best bet.
What is a nano tank used for?
It's a pit you pour your money into and then sit back and watch what your money and hard work combine and hopefully meet or exceed your artistic interpretation of what you wanted. (mine alway seem to come out more on the Picaso side of art).
Look through the old messages, tank size, lighting, inhabitants here. It's a great resource.
