My 2gal nano - with new improved video link

[Jack]

Wow, that thing is sweet!

What lighting did you retro into that lamp? (Sorry if you mentioned it earlier or somewhere else, I'm not much of a nano guy )

[Fish]

Thanks Jack. I put in a 70w de mh with a 20k bulb. It is a lot of light of light for a little tank but you can see from the footage that the 20k isn't too bright. Also, because I was able to mount it in a desklamp and not a hood, there is no issue with heat!

And don't spend too much time in the nano forum... it's contagious

Ah, cool. It looked like 70w range.

Nice tank Chad!

The color does mess with my camcorder a bit because the tank doesn't look quite as blue as it does in the movie. The most accurate representation of the color is the last picture in my set called 'tank progression' on the second page. And thanks again.

Love the movie Tank is very cool Can only think about the upgrade you will have to make once the corals grow

[Fish]

Haha, no kidding. The plan right now is just to prune things heavily. The size of corals that people sell as frags are the perfect size for the tank so it isn't very expensive to restock.

Great little vid.. Great tank... You did a great job
I dont think the music is lame at all. Who is the artist behind the voice??

[Fish]

Thanks! I believe the actual song title is :"shallow water" by Sylver.
um... used without permission

While I'm giving credit where it is due, I would like to thank Deb (EmilyB) for selling me the pink birdsnest frag you see in the video. It is perfect for the tank!

Hahaha, that video is GREAT! You've clearly put a lot of effort into this little tank (and to put together a video with a soundtrack to boot), I tip my hat to you, sir.
