    Hi Rory
    How about getting a criticism section under the freshwater tank discussion forum and maybe a Nano tank subforum on the
    Member Sytems?

    I would definitely like to see a nano section. I've been planning a tank to put on my desk at work for months now :)

    What is the maximum size tank that would be considered a Nano? 40l?

    I've also found it interesting to note that Nano tanks seem to a bit taller than the normal (standard) size tanks if you look at their preportions.

    I would say 50L and down.

    I like nano cubes more than normal tank preportions

    I think 30l is still nano, but it really depends on what you do with the tank.
    Unfortunately we're not allowed to talk about the best inhabitants for nano tanks :(

    There are still loads of fish that are actually known as nano fish.

    That is true, and I'm in the process of trying to find some myself. Hopefully I'll be able to get some microrasboras this month :)

    Care to share a link?
    I'm mostly interested in Microrasbora Kubotai, I think they look great in a heavily planted tank. But I'll be adding some Galaxy Rasboras too if I can get hold of a group of them.
