    My name is Matt.  My friend/co-worker just got me into the hobby about a week ago.  I though his tank was cool, so I thought it would be fun.  It took we awhile to actually buy a tank, but gered found on from a member here.  We picked up a 12 gallon nano cube.  That day we also stopped by Kirkins Clownfish, which was a fun to see, and also meet someone.  We haven't had time yet to work on the tank since it needs to be cleaned.  We ordered so goodies so I'm guessing next week it will have water in it.  I will post some pictures as the progress goes.  Gered had an idea for a spray bar that I might build this weekend, I personally don't know a lot so for right now I'm going to take his word.

    Welcome to the site and the hobby Matt! Good luck on your tank. Gered's a good person to get you started on your nano...he did a great job on his.

    Well today was a pretty productive day on the tank.  Started working on teh spray bar and cleaned up the tank.  Me and gered are waiting for a package with pumps and everything so we though we would get the spray bar started.  Also when I got the tank, it either looked like someone botched drilling it, or the heater melted a hole in the back wall, so when I picked the tank up I was given silicone to fix the whole.  So its fixed and hopefully Monday i will have saltwater in it, and new pumps.  Bad news was I found out im missing the hinges for the lid on the Nano cube. I will get pictures up soon of the fix, and hopefully water.  My goal is to have fish and coral in there by Christmas.
