    Here's the Vivarium nano tank kindly supplied by Dan Crawford. By biggest challenge to date. The shear size...or lack of it, presents new problems. I've filled it with tank water from the 120. I'll do a run down shortly. I've not gone mad with hardscape due to the fact it's going to be...

    After ripping down the old tank, i soon went out and bought some river stones. cheap as chips too. gravels etc i already had. half an hour of placement and I'm done.
