Title: New photos
Post by: ucbearcats on December 29, 2010, 21:41:06
My dad took some pictures of my tank today so I thought I would share.
These are with both the 70w metal halide and LEDs

I have a 70W MH that is sitting idle (needs a new bulb), and I was considering putting it over my 10g that only houses a damsel right now.  With photographic evidence such as this, I'm even more inclined to do so.  This is a really nice nano tank you have!  I'm going to have to go back and see what other equipment you are running :)

I have the 70w metal halide with a 20k bulb, and i recently purchased the panorama LED retrofit and got the all blue lights.  I am really happy with it.  I have a aquaclear 50 for my filter.  I also have a protein skimmer that is like the biocube skimmer.  I also have a Koralia nano powerhead.

What kind of media are you running in the Aquaclear?  I have 2 AquaClear Minis running on each side of the tank.  No skimmer right now (just massive water changes when needed :) ).  My 29g gets all the attention right now, but I have a second 10g I've been considering how to turn into a sump for the 10g display...  :hmmmm:

I know of some other folks who have the Ecoxotic Panorama, and they report the same pleasure  :-ThumbUpsm

I have been using the media that came with it.  the carbon and the sponge.  I just wash the sponge frequently.  I go to school at the University of Cincinnati so I have to move the tank back and forth from cincinnati and dayton.  That is why I try to keep the set up simple.  I have seen several people make a 10 gallon sump for their tank.
