I have begun modifying my nano cube. I started by installing a media basket with filter floss,chemi pure elite, and purigen. I removed the stock sponges and ceramic rings. I have a hydor koralia nano 420 with reef keeper lite as wavemaker. I have pc lights that I am looking to upgrade. A skimmer may also be necessary down the road.
I am a little discouraged with my lighting set up. The local fish store sold me a mpac 120 wat led. I am not satisfied with it because of the high fan noise. Otherwise I think it puts out enough light. I am thinking about going to a JBJ Viper 150 W mh set up. I know I will have to replace the bulbs a couple times a year, but at least I won't have to hear the fan noise. My aquarium is in the living room, so I don't want things to be too noisy. Please let me know what y'all think.
