Hi guys.... :lol:

Long at last, manage to setup my new 15 gallon nano tank. A simple setup actually for my froggy. :D. Manage to find a brand new matt black cabinet to go with it too at a dirt cheap price. Think is a clearance sale or something. :yeah:

It took me more than a month of waiting.... from researching, searching for the cabinet, making of tank and sump, buying of some equipment til the setting up of piping, skimmer, pump, and lights. :evil:

Total cost spent on cabinet, tank, sump, skimmer, pump, piping, light plus some misc is $180 for this project. :angel: ( Cheap right :P )

Currently tank is undergoing cycling but little sharky can't wait no more and decided to tried it out first <_<

Decided to name it after my GF.. Therfore proud to bring to u guys my new nano.

A nano named "christine"

Paisay... currently tank still very bare...... :peace:

cheers :)

wow :thanks: bro

hopefully its between $200-$300( 2nd hand is fine)

lookin' for 2ft tank with canister filter(small), PL lights, a cheap skimmer <$100 but not those air-driven ones(maybe a Macro needlewheel?) and pipings.....

uh....currently not sure wad other equipments are needed....think with those equipment above is suffiecient for da time being....
