I was at my LFS today and they have a new tank that looks interesting.
It's a Nature's Creation Bio-Zone, 12 gallons, slight bowfront, it's
almost a cube. It has a flip up hood with 2 18w PC bulbs, and an in-tank
(not built-in)filterbox with a pump, sponge, bio-media, and a heater
compartment (heater not included). The owner told me that you could also
use 24W bulbs in place of the 18W if you want to boost the lighting. Has
anyone else checked this thing out? Price is $115.00 Might be perfect
for a nano setup. The only thing I see that might be a problem is the
lack of a place for a skimmer. The hood design prevents the use of a
hang on back skimmer.

I forgot to mention that the hood has 2 built-in cooling fans.
