Stylaster, I am thinking of getting at 29g aquapod. If posible, could you please list all the equipment that you are having for the setup. Thanks.

The only difference between the two setups are the lights. The original 24 gallon has a 250w halide over it the new 24 gallon has a 70w halide over it
Both tanks are maintaned at 78-80 degs, 1.025 salinity, No detectable, phosphates, nitrates, nitrite.
I dont have any fish in either tank, and i dont run skimmers or any kind of carbon or phosphate remover.
I do a 10 gallon water change on each tank every 3 weeks, which is about a 45% water change. I do believe if i didnt do this i would have to be running skimmers
I do push a lot of water each tank has the return pump that came with it, both have majijet 1200's the original tank has a tunze nano and the other has korillia 2
Each tank i feed every 3 days, mostly for the acans a combination or brine shrimp, mysis, and cyclopeeze. A lot of the other corals get what isnt caught by the acans. I target feed them and what is blown away the other corals get
Hope that helps the equipment is pretty minimal, which gives me more time to stare at the tank :)

Wow, that is a very simple tank but it is too pretty (I am talking about no sump, skimmer, filter, and other stuff). I wish I have a ocean view like yours. I know it's too much to ask but do you have any of the picture of you tank started, the beginning stage? I read your other tank's posts and seem like they are all already developed.

Ill get some stuff together over the weekend so you can see the progression. The first tank is over 2 years old now, the other one is only 3 weeks, but the corals in it are about a year old

I definately look forward to seeing a progression. It is extremely cool to see nanos that have really nice growth and are able to be maintained with such simplicity. I will be setting up a 1 gallon pico tank with much of the same plan soon. Should be interesting.

I will certainly do so! It will be a little while before I start it, but I imagine it should set up by the end of the summer.
