Acrylic All-in-one Nano

[coachfraley]

I just picked up a custom acrylic all-in-one today, and I wanted to show it off. It is an apx. 10g display and 6g fuge/sump. The dimensions are 14x14x20. The guy who built it used 1/2" acrylic, so he didn't need to brace the top. I am going to transfer the rock and livestock from a 10g glass tank that I have set up at work right now. I included some pics, and I will take more once I start to transfer everything over from my 10g.

Very nice...where can i get one?

I got it from Advance Acrylics. The owner's name is John. I just emailed him a sketch, and he gave me a quote. I got his name off of another forum where he is a sponsor.

If I were to do it again, I think I would make it a little bigger, maybe 14g display, and 6g fuge...but this was my first tank design, so I guess it was a lesson learned!

Here is John's email: adv.acrylics@yahoo.com

how much does something like that cost?

I was going to have john build my sump, great guy and great prices. I may have to hit him up again for one of these.

Well I transferred my livestock yesterday, and here are some pics. The corals are still pretty pissed off, but I am hoping they will all open up today. The 250 gph pump I was going to use turned out to be too much flow (the sump started drain out), so I ended up using a minijet 606, and it looks just right. I am going to try to find about 2 more lbs. of LR to add to the fuge.

I used a 1/4" thick black false wall.
