There is less room for the 'lazy' factor in not doing that clean-up or water change.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I think Dussumieri has hit the nail on the head for my case. I set up my 20g, which OK, is not really a "nano" but it's a smaller tank so "borderline nano" before I really understood the basic concepts of DSB's. Basically, my 20g, at two years of age, has no ability to remove nitrates on its own, other than macroalgae export. And because I am not diligent enough in the pruning of those, and in the water changes, and since my carpet anemone has an apetite that almost matches my own, this tank very easily gets nitrates up to 60-80ppm. :eek:
OTOH, I know that Bob has a "proper" DSB in his nano, so I guess that's where it is: as long as it's set up "properly" it can be GoodThing(tm) (oh man I sound like Martha now ... :eek: )

I think a 7 gallon bowfront nano would look nice sitting on the back of the sh!tter.
