The Tankless Reefer'ette - Blog 2

So I was "this" close to getting an Aquapod 24 yesterday. A close friend of mine was breaking his down and put it up on the local boards for sale. He didn't name a price so that is probably why I wasn't turned off of the idea completely to begin with. Of course he said for me to name my price and of course I couldn't because I'm sitting here thinking ... "you could be an awesome friend and just give it to me ". In the end he offered to trade my very favorite ultra wide angle lens for the tank setup. But my lens cost me $550 and I don't really think the nano was worth all that much. Plus. I like photography almost more than I like reefing and I love that lens. Alas, I told him that I was going to pass and my search for the perfect tank continues.

I'm definitely thinking nano, with maybe just some zoas and rics for coral (ie no dosing required) and a ton of goby species.
-Helfriches firefish
-Rainsfordi gobies
-Trimma gobies
and all the other ones i can find.

    I thought a nano would be the perfect way to get back into the hobby after a break. Not long after I upgraded to my current 55, which will make a good sump in my next tank, a 150 or so. I'm sure I'll get tired of it eventually and go 300+...

    Great to see that you're looking for a new tank Jessy! Shortly after you took down your 150, I too sold my 150,75, and 20g reefs due to a move for work. I'm all settled in now and getting ready to start a 50g nano build!
