I just got it all hooked up and the sand and live rock rubble the way I'd like it . Now the waiting for the cycle and then the Mantis. I'm siked and
can't stop looking at the nano I can hear it say Mantis, Mantis , Mantis I want a Mantis . Here's a pic I hope it works .

I even put a pvc tunnel in the sandbed so the mantis will have some spacious digs . :beer: just thought I'd share my excitement with my fellow reefers .

Well the skimmer fell down during the pic . And the pvc pipe is for a mantis shrimp I plan to get when the cycle is complete . I plan on using
a marine expoxy to secure the skimmer to the top I just have'nt got it yet but very soon .

I plan on moving the rubble pile more to the back in a couple of days .
The way I figure it the mantis is going to change the scenary any way so I kinda like the raw look of it right now . :beer:

The standard 48 watts is sufficient to support most any softies and many LPS.
