This NEW aquarium is unique in the Nano market as the only aquarium with a 150 W metal halide light built into the hood. The 28 USG not a replacement for the existing Nano-Cubes but a more advanced aquarium for serious reefkeepers The NEW 28 USG model incorporates many high-tech features not commonly found in "All-in-One" systems and was inspired by the requests of hundreds of reef hobbyists when asked what they would like to see on a new aquarium.Key requests were for higher powered lighting, integrated protein skimming, increased water circulation, space in the rear chambers for heaters, refugiums, protein skimmers or other equipment and storage area in the stand for a chiller. The challenge was to offer these key features in a simple and cost effective way while still keeping the aesthetic appeal and contemporary look of an integrated canopy with options for future modification.

The 28g Nano Cube HQI comes equipped with a 150 Watt Double Ended HQI/14K for daytime photo periods and four Nite-Vu LEDs for nocturnal photo periods offering the most intense illumination system out of the box - a whopping 5.35 watts of power per US gallon. Combined with a new German Parabolic Reflector, it casts sparkling shimmering rays from every corner of the aquarium. Definitely the choice for hobbyists who intend to keep hard corals, sps, and clams. The Nite Vu LEDs are strategically placed on all four corners to evenly distribute the moon lighting throughout the aquarium with their own individual power cord for use with a separate timer from the main lights. All LEDs are pre-wired with their own male plug for easy replacement and consume less than 1 watt of power. Protein Skimmer The 28G is the first Nano-Cube to incorporate an integrated protein skimmer in the rear chamber with an adjustable hanging bracket. This counter-current design effectively removes dissolved organics while oxygenating the water. This protein skimmer produces absolutely NO micro-bubbles back into the main body of the aquarium!Discarding the skimmate in the collection cup is easy by simply removing the skimmer cup which holds approximately 0.30 liters of waste or by setting up a collection container such as an empty 2-liter soda bottle and using the integrated drain hose. An air pump, hose and replaceable wooden air stone are included to feed the skimmer with air. The airline holder and drain hose holder have been integrated into the rear aquarium frame. This design keeps the hoses organized and prevents kinking - simply, insert hoses into the provided holes for a secure hold and clutter-free set-up. We recommend changing the wooden air-stone every other month for the most consistent foam and micro-bubble production and the entire protein skimmer is removable for periodic cleaning and maintenance. Each skimmer is equipped with an adjustable hanging bracket which attaches to the filter wall and can be adjusted higher or lower to desired skimmate consistency. The filter design provides a constant water level in the protein skimmer chamber even when the rear compartment area runs dry. It is normal that the protein skimmer will require a break-in period up to 7 days before it starts to effectively remove dissolved organic compounds from the water. Stay Cool The secret to cool running is in the design of the canopy which serves as a key factor in heat dissipation. All Canopies are made from Flame Retardant ABS Plastic with four cooling fans paired on 2 separate circuits in case one set of fans were to ever lose performance or fail. To go one step further as a safety feature there is a thermal protector built into the canopy. In the event all fans failing the thermal protector will automatically shut off the HQI lighting until temperatures reach safe conditions from the excess heat. The open area on the back of the aquarium allows additional cooling through evaporation and this combined with the external ballast system helps to keep the aquarium cool. If the aquarium is used in a particularly hot room or climate then a cooler should be considered which will fit into the specially designed cabinet. Filtration System The unique 3-Stage Filter Media Basket can host a variety of chemical media's to suit your needs. Cleaning is especially easy, since all you have to do is lift up on the basket handle and watch the water drain out the bottom for a simple and dry filter change. All baskets have a sliding door for added convenience. Once the water leaves the filter basket water is split to the designated heater section to the left and the protein skimmer to the right. (Note that the area that contains the heater, protein skimmer and 3-Stage Filter Media Basket always has a constant water level). Once the water is heated and skimmed, the water overflows into the water pump chambers. Both pump chambers are shared increasing the water volume for long weekends without any evaporative top up. Wave Simulation The Nano Cube HQI includes the new Ocean Pulse Duo Wave Maker which creates turbulent currents for a more natural reef environment. Your wave maker can be set to drive 2 pumps on alternate cycles which are variable from 10 seconds to 6 minutes. On the Nano-Cube HQI water is returned via two integrated pumps rated at 266 USG/Hr through two directional return nozzles, one on each side of the center overflow to give even natural current simulation within the main body of the aquarium. Each pump is easily removable for maintenance and draws only 16W of electricity. Easy Feeding: The new feeding lid is lighter than the previous full front lid allowing quick and easy access for feeding and retrieving water samples without lifting the entire hood. Aquarium Cabinet The Nano Cube HQI has a completely new cabinet which compliments the contemporary design of the aquarium. The cabinet is ventilated to allow a refrigerant cooler to run inside without overheating. Product Name: 28g Nano-Cube HQI
