This is my second tank, however, this is the first one I've started from scratch. I'm still learning from the threads and long hours at Barnes and Noble. Tank was cycled for 40 days before initial introduction of any livestock. Tank has gone through the cycles. I know some of the equipment is overkill and huge for a nano but I'm going to get a bigger tank as soon as I get the hang of this hobby, if ever. The turnover rate is kinda high but the flow in the tank is moderate. chiller and SCWD regulate the strong flow to the tank. I'm slowly stalking the tank being very cautious when acclimating. All livestock open up fully and are at their fullest. Thanks

Looking good! Keep up the good work and keep stocking it slowly.

PS: watch out that the GSP will not overtake too much of your tank:)
