[Cole's Coral Shack]

Hey my name is Cole! I'm a freshman in college and have had many fish tanks before attending college ranging from 28 gallons up to 120 gallons!

So here is a list of what I've got going on with the tank right now.

Looks great! Have you thought about what you're doing with it while you're at home? Not knocking you, just always curious what unique ways people are able to solve not being there for 3-4 weeks.

I got quite lucky that my roommate happens to live in the area and stays in the dorm over breaks. He also has some experience with fish tanks so that is a major bonus!

Is the sicce 0.5 pump enough for Nuvo 10? Also does it provide good flow with spinstream nozzle ? I know that spin stream reduced the flow significantly. Have you noticed that? If not I will go for that upgrade
