Saltfinsax Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Before I end up ordering some kinda nano power, what you people out there have? Or have you seen something sold locally? Its for a little 5gl so needs to be small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Before I end up ordering some kinda nano power, what you people out there have? Or have you seen something sold locally? Its for a little 5gl so needs to be small. I might have something. I have a bag of old filters and such in the closet and it has a couple of small pumps. I'll take a look.

jgf86123 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Steve, instead of apowerhead, if it's that small of a nano, just use an AC70, it makes for a great HOB fuge, if modded properly, and should give you more than enough flow in a 5g tank.

Saltfinsax Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 Well the top is almost fully covered by the lid, which is helping with less evaporation. It is only going to be for zoa's and maybe a couple tiny fish. It has a little pump for running water over the cleaning pad and bio wheel, but need a little more.

jgf86123 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Steve, did you get a 5g Eclipse tank? We can probably swing by Wednesday if you'd like, I did a LOT of research into nano tanks, the tiny under 6g ones, before we set up the 20L a couple years ago, might be able to come up with a few ideas for you.

NoobtoSalt Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I just picked up another Koralia nano in a trade. I'm not using it at the moment if you want to try it out and see how it will work out for you let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackaninny Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Nothing less than an MP60. Kidding but post it to YouTube if you go that direction. The Korallia Nano units are cheap, have a good reputation and can be found locally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
