I would really recommend this tank - I continue to have a lot of fun with it. The LED lighting is superb and the greens look more intense in real life than in my photos which look a bit bleached out.

Anyway I bought her the Aquanano 30 as she didn't want the 40 and I started googling tanks and nano tanks especially looking at what she might have in mind. I was instantly bitten by the bug and bought myself the Aquanano 40. That was a few months ago and I've only just about got everything ready to go properly. Anyway enough jibber jabberReplacement of Glass Bulbs/Tubes: Glass bulbs or tubes can only be replaced if they become faulty within 14 days.

Thanks DJT for the advice on the filter sponge. One question is how is it best to get the pump out so that we can clean it. Ie screwing, pulling etc. It seems quite stiff and we are worried it might get damaged. The most popular feature of the tank however is the cover glass with its tidy finish, rounded front corners and crystal-clear quality. The finish combines with the powerful lighting to enhance your aquascape, creating a spectacular head-turning display. Does this aquarium come in any other sizes? Arguably one of the best looking aquariums in the Aqua One range, the AquaNano 40 with matching Inspire cabinets is a stunning addition to any room. With it's own, very capable filtration system and a choice of LED or PL lighting, the AquaNano 40 really is a fishkeeper's delight. AquaNano 40 She refered to cycling - depending on how you did that you may be fine or you may have problems coming. Shops and tank manufactureres very rarely tell you anything useful about cycling. This is the process of growing bacteria in the filter which remove toxins from the tank. One species uses the ammonia secreted by the fish as food, and turns it into nitrite, the second species uses that nitrite as food and turns it into nitrate. It takes several weeks to grow these bacteria in sufficient numbers to keep both ammonia and nitrite in the water at zero.Here's an excellent third party video that we found on YouTube showing the AquaNano 40 filter setup, with a few additional filtration items included. We really like the look that the aquarium keeper has gone for, as well as the added filtration elements. Enjoy! I've looked at your post in this thread, and the one in Resa's thread about her gourami, and I can find anything about your tank size (though of course it does take me a couple of hours to wake up properly in a morning and I might not be seeing what is written there )

As with all aquariums from all manufacturers, we highly recommend installing your glass aquarium on a purpose-built aquarium stand or cabinet the same size or larger than the footprint of the aquarium, if you do not install on a purpose-built aquarium stand or cabinet, this will void your warranty (same with all glass tank manufacturers) TheAqua One AquaNano 40 tropical aquarium is also integrated with expert LED lighting, to provide a bright and efficient source of natural-looking daylight which not only takes care of the health of your plants and fish,, but also enhances the vibrant colours of your underwater world.Substrate - Tropica Plant Growth Substrate, regular Aquarium gravel, fert balls to insert in medium According to the store’s policy, customers have the following responsibilities regarding breakages: So thats where I am so far, I'm going to be adding maybe more plants and mosses as I go, and Fauna is going to be varieties of shrimp and some very small fish. I've got other bits and bobs I'm collecting along the way and am going to be dryscaping whilst I sort my co2, spray bar etc. The diffuser is going to be located in the sump area below the pump and co2 potentially out theu the spray bar I think but I generally change my mind on lots of aspects when I ready something new We appear to have a really thin film of algae building up on the inside of the tank. It is easy to wipe off but would it be best to leave for the fish?
