temp fixed! the temp used to be at 86 but after adding 2 fans, it now stays around 78-81 depending on the time of the day.
my bf put a fan in the back blowing in:
and then he cut a hole in the old eclipse hood and put a small fan blowing out:
hopefully, no more temp issues.
here is a pic of our first attempt at the early stage of our saltwater tank. we're actually having a problem with the temperature because it is getting a bit too hot. working on fixing that right now.

thanks for the replies! i actually decided not to get a picotope and just turn my 3 gallon eclipse to saltwater starting yesterday. this will be me and my boyfriend's first saltwater tank so we're very excited. will post some pics when it is finished.
I am considering in trying a small saltwater tank. and im thinking a picotope would be a good first try since it is tiny and i am not brave enough to invest on anything bigger just yet. is a picotope worth it? and also, are there any small fish that can live in it and will stay small? are there...
