Well I did it, I got my nanocube today. It is a 12gal dx model. Crossing my fingers it doesn't crack. One day with this thing and before any water went in I already modded the crap out of it. I changed the return pump out to a maxijet 1200. I added a locline Y with some extensions to get the returns crashing around better. I just got done moddifying the lighting system so I can keep my moon lights going while my main lights are on a timer. I am currently writing a huge pictorial DIY on this and will post it so others can enjoy the fruits of my labors. Its the first time in about a year and a half I got to use my electrical engineering backround so I'm pumped it worked out. I probably won't run a fuge mod as I am starting out with less sensitive livestock, and if anything gets out of whack I'll get it out with water changes. I may use the stock return pump on the other side with a hydor-flo, haven't yet decided. I want to see what the maxijet does first. I also got the skimmer plate for the overflow.

I am going to cheat and steal the best rock out of my 120 gal along with some water and sand. So hopefully I can jump start this thing right off and start stocking it. Thanks to SH for the inspiration. If it all goes well it is going to be one beautiful tank.
 
Well, Good Luck, Make sure you DO NOT OVERSTOCK. I overstocked and have had algae since then. _CF
