So I'm cycling a 12 gallon nano cube DX. Ok, I have about 1 inch of aragonite crushed coral sand in the bottom, and only the sponges in the back for filtration. I know I need to replace the pump with a stronger one and probably add either a hydor flow diffuser or a rio 50 to add extra movement. This comes with the dual compact lights, so lighting is good. Temp is 80, and the ammonia is already drastically dropping along with the nitrites and only after the second day!(I have a gift for rapidly starting tanks within 2-7 days, but usually reserve that for special occassions or friends tanks,). Theres no live rock or anything in there at the moment.
I know a lot of people hate nano cubes, but mine has been fine,(fixed the bugs myself when it was fresh!). Any suggestions on how to go about breaking it in for saltwater would be appreciated.
Also, anyone know if scissor tail gobies can live in a 12 g. nano for a short time? I plan on having a 30 gal. built by end of year, and that would be their permanent home. This tank will eventually be relegated to a sick/isolation tank at that point anyway.
