Here are the updated pics of my nano!! LOADS of coraline algae growing. I now am looking for Corals....Any ideas from you all what type of coral can thrive in a nano?!?! It does have the new 1/2 blue 1/2 white double bulbs. Also has the added MJ-400 for cross circulation of flow, with a replacment of stock pump for a MJ-900!

Yes it is a highhat. It is a very cool addition to the tank. It is mostly nocturnal. Although it is PLENTY active during the day. It is reef friendly and eats flake and myosis shrimp. Not territorial really. They come in pairs most of the time and prefer to be that way. They will find a little cave or outcropping and post up there. I love my highhat, his name is Erny. bah ha. I would recommend one. Some people say that they get big but I have not ever seen one much bigger that around 2- 2 1/2 inches!

Don't know if this is allowed but it is in NO way a competitor in selling of fish or anything to this site.....But the BEST on general question and answer stuff I have found is www.peteducation.com You can search for any animal and get awesome info. Sorry if a link like that is not allowed.
