I own the 12 gallon with deluxe hood, and absolutley love it. As soon as we received it at work I purchased it. Plenty of room for live rock, and very easy maintainence. Supplies for the aquarium are easy to come by. I have had very positive experiences with Current-USA's customer service should the nano cube ever have complications.

This little tank makes for an amazing mini-reef. I purchased the 12g deluxe over 3 years ago from Drs F&S and it is still running efficiently with no problems whatsoever. The 12g deluxe is perfect for soft coral as well as LPS. My hairy mushrooms have flourished in this tank and I have to frequently frag them as well as my candy cane LPS coral and put them in my 75g reef tank. I would suggest purchasing the little surface skimmer for this tank because it works great at keeping the surface water crystal clear. Thank you Drs F&S for stocking excellent quality items.

This is an awesome product. I have the 6 gallon nano cube, and it looks great. This is a great item if you are on a tight budget and if you don't have enough room. The filter and lights are amazing.
