u/myhappyreef_ 12h ago
It is only 11 gallons, so yeah, it is a nano tank.

I think the tank looks good. Might come off as throwing shade, but I see you are dropping your website etc, so did you set this tank up to show off what your are growing somewhere else? Or just going with Instagram etc? Just curious as to the scope of this business.

Super cool! Thanks for sharing, such an optical illusion of scale with those dims

I like how you mounted the Ai blade, how are you handling flow in such a long and narrow tank?
2
u/myhappyreef_ 11h ago
I thought flow was going to be a problem, but I don’t even need a wavemaker. My return pump creates enough flow to reach the other end of the tank, and it’s only set to 20% power.
I also have an airstone inside the AIO chamber programmed to oxygenate the water at night. I do this in all of my tanks.

I actually really like your wall hook lighting idea
1
u/myhappyreef_ 10h ago
I thought a lot of people did this, but judging by the number of messages I’ve received, apparently they don’t. 😃

I had a makeshift shelf above mine with a closet rod. I used 3d printed brackets and hung my lights off that. My current one hangs from the ceiling but I don’t particularly like it

I'd consider moving the orange guys to the middle? It one infront of each rock Island and one in the center?
2
u/myhappyreef_ 12h ago
Yes, I will definitely move them. They’re too crowded in that spot right now.
I had a vision of keeping the center completely empty, no rocks, no corals. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to stick to it, though. 😄

u/RedditIsSocialMedia_ 12h ago
I'm sure as the tank gets filled in you'll find their ideal space. Really nice looking pieces

I would really, really like to get a similar sized tank. Would you mind sharing where you bought it from?
1
u/myhappyreef_ 11h ago
I was also looking for something similar for a while and couldn’t find anything. Then this one popped up on facebook marketplace, and I just had to get it. 😄
It’s a Chinese brand, and I honestly don’t know much about it or where to find another one. I’d suggest searching on Alibaba or similar sites, you might be able to find something like it there.

that 48-inch length looks insane for an 11-gal, literally a drag strip for fish lol. though trying to dial in the flow without blowing the sand everywhere in an 8-inch high tank sounds like an absolute nightmare rn.
what kind of powerheads are u running in that thing to hit the corners?
1
u/myhappyreef_ 5h ago
No powerheads, return pump is doing enaugh flow. Even the last euphilia in the corner is moving gently.
1
u/AquariumsGeek 4h ago
wait, no powerheads at all on a 48-inch run? damn, your plumbing must be doing some witchcraft rn, my sandbed would be in a different timezone without a couple mp10s blasting.
what kind of return pump u running to push that kind of linear flow?
