Ansaybuddy Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Hey guys, So I'm thinking about finally starting a reef tank and came across the IM Nuvo Fusion series of tanks. I'm thinking that the 20L tank will be a little small for me so thought about the 30L instead. Anyone here have the 30L tank and willing to give me some insight? I'm not going to go too crazy on livestock meaning I don't plan on getting larger angels, triggers, or fish that require larger tanks. I was just wondering if anyone here has had any problems with their tank since I have been reading some posts on other forums about there being bowing problems on the 30L. I'm very new to this so I apologize if my terminology isn't quite up to speed. Thank you in advance! Quote
pledosophy Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Welcome to the forum I personally do not own a Nuvo, but I have heard nothing but great things about them from people who do. I think it would be a great tank to start with. Quote
Bicyclebill Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I've got an IM Nuvo 16 at work and I really like it. The AIO is a great concept, and I think IM has done a good job of it. Quote
Higher Thinking Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 No experience personally, but today is a great day to buy one at BRS because they are on sale for the day! 1 Quote
Dragon Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I got an 8 gallon IM through Cuttle Fish and Coral and I loved it. Great quality, easy to maintain and buying it from the shop I was able to get some really awesome support when I needed anything for it. They also carry the 30l tanks and currently have one running as a display tank at the shop. They look really nice!! The fish you mentioned you aren't going to be keeping in that tank are all fish that probably shouldn't be in the same sentence as a 20g tank, so that's a good thing those are crossed off the list. With that being said, there's some really awesome livestock you can get for those smaller tanks and if you end up buying through a LFS, you might get a nice package deal with some livestock to get you going. I did that with my 8g and I'd strongly recommend it. 1 Quote
Ansaybuddy Posted November 22, 2014 Author Posted November 22, 2014 Thanks for the information guys! Higher thinking - that's exactly why I am asking! Is BRS pretty good about shipping that kind of stuff? I'm worried about it possibly cracking in shipping. Quote
Jeramy Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I have had the nuvo 8 and have a 38 I am setting up and I love these clean well thought out tanks! Quote
NoobtoSalt Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I've had the 16 and now have the 8 gallon as well. Great little tanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
