it fits right in there. its not as long as yours i think. i looked in your pics on your thread yours goes all the way to the sand bed?? mines glass just like that but its shorter it fits perfectly in there right behind the pad.
the heater is called the AquaEL comfort zone heater 50 watt.
i swear it was made for these things lol

yea i wonder if i can like cut out that plastic grid or like drill a hole in it cuz that heater looks so nasty just like hanging there

ya the tank looks really clean when its hidden. ya i would just drill a hole perfect for the heater to go threw it wouldnt mess up the water flow at all.

Does anyone have any ideas on a stock list i can do??
Could i get an anenome? is it hard to keep in this type of tank dont they produce alot of waste??

when are you gonna add the substrate?[/QUOTE
im getting 30pounds of LiveSand im getting it this week i think it might be a little much though it will probably give a sand bed of 5" which could be ok because i plan on getting 1 or 2 blue dotted jawfish.
you think i should take a little rock out though it makes my tank a little full and its 17p

rearrange em and make a cave or smthng then it wont be as crowded

i was thinking
bluespot jawfish
some kind of gobies/blennys
maybe 2 clownfish
crabs
snails
????

If I had a stocklist for that it'd probably look alittle like this.
1 Cleaner Shrimp
asst. snails
asst. hermits
Sand Shifting Starfish
2 clowns (of your choice)
purple firefish goby
Thats what my 10g in my room currently has, the snails are turbos, and clowns are false percula
and 2 nice looking feather dusters, if that counts for list lol

 

[chroniccoral35]

Are you gonna re-arrange rocks and add a sandbed? I am ordering a 28g JBJ nano soon and I was trying to find this type of sand, I've seen it on someones nano on the boards, it's like dark gray and/or black...anyone know? it looks awesome.

yes one of my buddys just got that kind of sand its LiveSand and its black he ordered it online i want to say off of DoctoreFosters & Smith .com but im not sure just shop around and you can find it. It costs the same as any other sand also so its not overpriced or anything.
Yes im going to add my sand bed this week it should be on the way( in the mail) i am going to rearange my rock after i add my sand.

yes thats what i was planning on but i got the LR first in the mail im still waiting for my sand so its a little set back but will be fine

 

[chroniccoral35]

Sounds like a plan, good luck with your tank
I'll look around for it, I wanted a change for when I transfer the 10 to the 28g, so I decided to change the sand

O, Ok that makes sense
