The new nano

So my daughter has always been fond of my tank and I have decided to let her have a tank of her own. I will be building her an AIO tank . The tank will he 1/4 inch glass with 13x17x12 dimensions. I ordered the glass at work and has tap plastics cut me the glass wall out of black acrylic. This will mainly be a zoa Lps tank. I am just waiting on the silicon to arrive tomorrow. I made a media rack and a pull out refugium for it and I am working on the ato resevoir. for it. The light will be an ai prime hd that I am getting from a buddy cheap.

Looking good. My little girls want their own too...and I'll probably do something similar for them when they get a little older...and can keep it up and do water changes on their own.

Yeah I want this to be her tank and learn from mistakes and how to fix them. She wants to be a scientist so the test we do are basically science right?

Pretty much. And I don't necessarily find doing those tests "fun"... So even better!
