12G Nano sand bed question????

[jemshores]

Hi! I am not really new to the boards but new to being a nano owner

. Anyway, in the process of setting it up now and we purchased a 20 lb. bag of live sand-put about 3/4 of the bag in and was wondering what the proper depth for a nano is. The bed is appx 1 1/4 deep now and I think a really deep sand be might pose some problems? Not sure...can someone answer that for us? Thanks in advance

No responses? Oh well, we put it all in and have about a 2" bed now-hope that is fine. Anyway doing our stock list and would like your opinions..

2" is perfect, that what mine is..
If you plan on 4 fish, make sure you keep up on waterchanges and parameters

And keep the top on and the back chambers blocked off from the display. Neon Gobies are jumpers IME.
