Hi, I have had saltwater aquriums for about 5 years now. As beautiful as my FOWLR tank and F/IWLR tanks are, I want to try my hand at corals. I have read much about the 28g Nano Cube HQI Aquarium, and the Red Sea Max, but the Red Sea model seem more expensive with less lighting. I just wanted to know (if you don't mind) how much it costs for you a month to upkeep one of these nanos. I know enought about the additives (trace elements, iodine, ect.) but how much do you spend on lighting?
Also, could I sustain a clam in this lighting, I've asked many people and got ups and downs on it. I would have one of the smaller species.
I don't have much "extra" cash left after my other two aquariums, thus the questions on the cost. If you know about how much you spend on your aquarium for upkeep yearly that would be the greatest.
All comments welcome, even negitive if it has a valuble lesson or info.
Thank You To All Who Just Read, Because Everyones Time Is Valuble.
 
It's wierd that you have this post, in about 2 weeks I myself am buying the 28g HQI. You can pretty much put anything you wan't in this tank, the 150W HQI lighting is awesome. A buddy of mine has it also, he loves it...everything worked fine, he has a beautiful BTA and 2 snowflake clowns hosting it, also a nice coral beauty angel :)
