Comments: This is truly an excellent aquarium, but it needs a chiller to really provide an ideal environment for fish and coral. If you want to set up a nano-reef, this is the way to go. Like others have said, you do have to adjust the skimmer to open the top, bit it is well worth it. Also the HQI lighting brings our the best colors in corals. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Nice Tank but... by DON BETTS

Comments: I owned a 24DX from JBJ for years and upgraded to the 28 HQI. Looking forward to watching it grow. It is a nice tank but it does have 2 irritants. It runs hot so order a chiller too. The other irritant is that the wave maker failed the first week. JBJ's customer service is lacking AND you have to pay shipping both ways on warranty parts. I wouldn't recommendt this tank just because of JBJ. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

JBJ 28gal Nano by DIANA SILVA

Comments: Great lillte tank! Large viewing area. I like the fact that its longer than wide. You can get a lot of rock in there and still have room for open sand area for clams and such. The skimmer isn't the greatest, but once you get it adjusted, it work pretty well. You have to re-adjust everytime you open the hood, but that's minor. Haven't experienced the over heating problem others have described. But I'm only keeping the light on for a few hours during the day while my rock is curing. All in all worth the wait! (took 3 deliveries for one to arrive unbroken!) Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Runs Hot, needs chiller by KIT LEWIS

Experience Level: Beginner

Posted on 10/6/2007 from TUJUNGA, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: The light caused ours to go up to 86 degrees. Just a little too hot. We were advised to get a chiller & got the JBJ Mini-Arctica Chiller DBI-050 1/15hp. Now we're at 76-78 degrees. Everything is now going according to schedule & we hope to be adding some fish soon. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: This is really a simple and easy way to get starting with an aquarium, totally self contained and quite. The only drawbacks are the filter needs replacing frequently and it's expensive. The other is the overflow does not keep the fish from over flowing in to the catch tank. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
