| I apologize to everyone for not finishing. Unfortunately, the very morning after I had assembled the article, my computer failed, and I am only back online today. I have a lot of work to do to get my system back up to snuff but I plan to have the article finished by Sunday, hopefully. |

| Thank you for this wonderful article. I've read and re-read it twice because I don't want to make any mistakes. I used the boxed saltwater, live rock and live sand. Probably overkill but I lost a 55 gallon tank and lots of fish years ago and I want to be sure to do everything right. Do you have any recommendations on a good brand of salt as the boxed saltwater is expensive, not to mention too heavy for me to lift. This is a great forum and I'm learning so much. Saltwater has really changed in the past 15 years. |

| Thanks Gina and everyone else for the nice words. Also I'm always revising the article... the more experience we all have the better, so if you have any suggestions, post them and I'll revise the main piece. I use instant ocean. It's affordable and very reliable. In my reef club everyone uses IO, except for two people who use reef crystals, and one of them has done an experiment and really hasn't seen much of a difference. So I recommend Instant Ocean |

| i agree with lordroad, go with Instant Ocean if you can. I've been using Oceanic brand lately and its been okay. my main thumbs up to Instant Ocean is I've never seen the slightest difference between cans. Can't say that about Reef Crystals.

| I have an existing 50 gallon reef tank, and have just started my ten gal Nano. I have to say its just as much fun creating the Nano as it was the 50  . I think the Nano will be very rewarding in that the aquascaping is so in your face that the things one might miss in a larger tank are up close and personal. I cant wait to finnish this project so I can start my 3 gal Pico. |
