That trumpet started with 4 heads only about 3 weeks ago. Now it has 5 and another one is splitting right now as we speak...

Hmmm, I think that is the bulk of it. Did I forget something?
I actually changed the right side upper corner a bit to give more light in that area. I think it looks better now. It is always a work in progress.
Thanks for the compliments, even thought it is not quite a nano.

It works good, once you figure out how to keep the U-Tube overflow from collecting air and failing. But, you could make one your self or just use regular refuge and get the same results for a heck of a lot less money. A while back a posted a long review of the product on this site.

Vibe, I think you notice what I do.........lack of posting here in nano. I have to wonder if this forum will last. We have tried several different forums over the years I've been here anyway, and the owners really like to keep forums that draw interest. This forum really doesn't seem to be drawing the interest we thought it would. If you guys like this forum, and want it to stay, then the post title says it all......your activity in certain forums lets the owners know what to keep. I know the mods and members have several other ideas for forums, but if you nano reefers like this one, you guys need to get active in this forum......just a hint.:)

So when you see someone with a small tank posting elsewhere make sure you reference them to this forum!!!
