For return pump...aquabee 3000 or rio HF20 enough?

Aquabee 3000 should be sufficient. Otherwise get OR3500 or Eheim 1264... :whistle

Quote of the year! I approve of this idea :eyebrow:

My 1.5ft nano cube

My 24G nano tank (Decommed)

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate.

And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Exciting thread... lol

The tank looks very nice even when bare.

You finally got your dream started.

You have all your live rocks already?

Let me answer all the questions n queries at one shot...haha...

Spent my sunday afternoon and night cleaning the sump...full of crap junk inside bcoz the previous set-up was using ceramic cubes and bio-balls....lots of black dark monsters accumulated in the sump....my hands and legs are aching badly now....now it looks much cleaner....will vacuum the remaining dirt out when my sump is fully dried.

The T5 fixture i bought, is for my current nano....the one i had, hopar crap brand is down. But will be using a clip on LED for my sump to save energy.

So, once i decomm my 2ft will give the entire set away including the cabinet n cannister...but let me check with binosage whether he wants, if not i will just give it away whoever is interested.
