Fishoholic's 2012 nano contest entry

In the beginning.....there was a box (under a bar no less)......


and in that box.......was an ibox!


that came with little pieces that needed putting together.....and NO instructions (Oh and a few extra pieces, that Doug tossed into said ibox box, just to confuse me.....good times)


but through perseverance (and admittedly internet help) I figured out how to get the circulation pump working (forgot to take a pic of it put together oops!) and the darn confusing air stone skimmer that it came with. Took forever to figure it out and BTW I hate skimmers!


Also discovered the the air hose the skimmer came with was way to short and I needed to find a pump....so I went shopping under my bar again to where Doug's extra tank stuff is hiding and found this

Decided it would work well sitting on Doug's computer desk so here it sits

It was pretty dusty/dirty so I gave it a good rise before setting it in it's final resting spot, here's some empty tank shots
