AS MANY OF YOU MAY KNOW, I WAS FORCED TO DOWNGRADE MY 220G TO A 24G NANO FOR A FEW MONTHS DUE TO A MOVING SCARE (HOPE TO GET SOME OF MY BEST PIECES BACK), BUT IT WORKED OUT FOR THE BEST...I'M BAAACKKK,

FEW OLD TANK THREADS I RAN THROUGH:

Nice tank! Seems like the tank to get if you can't go bigger because of the nice dimension and the sleek overflow. Definitely isn't a 220, but now you can chose the more prized corals
