So I've begun moving some of my LPS into the nano tank. I've decided it's a good area to raise SPS without my shrimp and fish stealing the food. I'll be able to feed them more regularily and the 150W lighting is almost perfect for them. The water flow makes them look quite appealing too.

So there's a zoo rock in the tank, and my frogspawn. I'm debating whether to bust a chunk off my xenia rock to seed the nano. It would look nice as well in the water column.

I just did a small feeble take off on your set up in a 10 gallon, the xenia seems to be loving it as does the mushroom rock, thanks for the idea, I think I'll pick up a decent power head sometime soon and take a good look at doing it right.

sweet

I broke down and busted a small chunk off my xenia rock. They appear to love the solid water flow too.

I'm trying to source out black acrylic at a good price. Thinking of covering the front with a piece of black acrylic that's routered out to leave the display area open.

so it's practically done, and I want to set up a propagation system of about 3 tanks in total on a rack, but the mammy says I can't take any more floor space, even though we have loads of space down in the basement here

I really want to do a propagation system in order for the hobby to pay for itself, but then I'd have to take down this gyre tank

I'm really torn over which to do.
