Does anyone have any comments about this tank? Im somewhat familiar with JBJ nanos but I was wondering if anyone had anything to say about the LEDs? Are the good enough for the size of tank it is and what can be expected to be kept in it...soft corals, maybe a few of the trickier ones but nothing that requires something like MH? Thanks

Which one are you looking at? They have an intermediate LED and a Pro? LED I would go with the Pro? one 89watts. I have a 24g nano that I converted to LED a few years ago and it does OK. I've been thinking about upgrading the lid to the 89w LED nanocube lid. I've also just considered getting the 28 and combining my 24 and my 12 into one tank. I like my nano cubes and I think if you go with one you would too if you are looking for an all in one. They have redesigned the new ones and I do like them better then what I have.

Well I bought the intermediate one. It was a Black Friday special online. It was originally $630 with the stand plus shipping. I ended up getting it, the stand, and an Instand Ocean Reefmaster test kit shipped for less than $450. Figured it couldn't be too bad of a deal.

Sounds like a good deal. You should be able to keep softies and probably some LPS in that one. Not sure about anemones and probably not sps

I have the pro, I bought it used locally with a bad ballast for the hood for $150 tank/stand... I bought a new light ballast for $85 and its good to go. I think its a great tank and I love it so far...
