What kind on nano tank is the best!

[Flusher]

I'd say forget the pre-built nanos. A lot of them need to be modified anyway, which is a waste of money, IMO.

You could buy a 20-25 gallon tank for pretty cheap, drill it, and add a sump/'fuge using another tank (like a 5 gallon).

I built my own "cubes" and they turned out pretty good. I'm going to drill my smaller cube in two places so I can get rid of the overflow tube and the powerhead hose. mops.ca sells decent glass drill bits for pretty cheap, and they work.

Here are some pics. They're a bit dated, so my tanks look a bit different now. (Don't bother with the Lee's skimmer or the Current USA Nano skimmer.)
