So My Girlfriend Surpirsed Me With My New Nano About A Week Ago. Never Had Anything By Innovative Marine Before, But What I Can Say About It So Far Is That This Is My FAVORITE Nano Tank I Have Ever Owned.

Pros:
I Love The Small Acrylic Pedestal It Comes With
The Media Baskets Simple Design
The Open Back Filter To Add Extra Media Or Fuge
The Turning Return Peice For Random Area Flow
The Shape And Size Is Perfect, And Glass Not Plastic Is A Plus

Cons:
The Light. I Got The 14K 8w Skkye Led. Still More Of A 10k Look.
Return Pump Rated Max At 92g Is Not Enough Flow At All. Adding A Powerhead To It Would Look Dumb. Even A MP10 Would Be Filling Up Too Much Room In Tank.
No Skimmer Can Fit That I Know Of. They Only Make A Skimmer For The 16g And Up.
The Light Should Have Switches. Plugging & Unplugging Wires To Turn Lights On And All Can Be Annoying. Need A Timer Soon To Fix This...


All And All Its A Real Nice Nano. I Added The AQUAMAXX All-In-One Filter Media Bag Instead Of Chemi Pure, And Been Using All CONTINUUM Chemicals With This Tank And So Far Im Very Pleased With Continuum. Im Trying To Figure Out A Way To Add More Actinic Look To The Tank Without Replacing The Whole Skkye Fixture. Any Ideas?

Tanks Been Running For About A Week Now. The Rock Is Not Set Up Like I Want It, Just Kinda Placed It All In Because I Was In A Rush. Ill Redue The Rock Work In About A Month. I Used Water From My Solana Tank And Was Cycle Free. So Far Added A Large Mix Of Live Pods To The Tank, A Few Zooanthids, 2 Mushroom Heads, A Small Blasto Head And 3 Heads Off My Hammer Colony From My Solana. Everything Seems To Be Happy So Far. Pair Of Baby 1/2 Inch PJ Cardinals Will Be Added Today.


Here Are A Few Pics From Early This Morning. Most Corals Are Not Open Because I Turned The Lights On And Snapped Some Pics Moments After Light Was On.
