So i picked it up off craigslist for 20.00 - no complaints, however, when i got it cleaned out, i noticed a few things...

First off, it needs a new light -- does anybody have links for good DIY lighting on a NC6?

Second, it looks like the previous owner busted out the 2nd baffle (nearest the pump), so it is only two chambers now -- i'd like to make it three and im thinking about using something similar to the setup found over at nano-reefs.com (http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=97202 )

If anybody has good ideas, by all means, i am all ears!

As far as plans for this enclosure -- i'd definitely like to upgrade the pump, It came with the overflow attachment, and i would like to put in a refugium. I have Zoa's and frogspawn and fingerleather from my main tank that will migrate over, and perhaps a firefish goby, not sure about him yet.

Lemme know what ya'll think! I'll post pictures here soon(ish)

nanocustoms.com has retro kits for the nc6. Pretty easy to install as well.
