In summer of 2004, I entered an award winning 1.6 gallon pico, that took first prize! My pico was photographed and featured in a European Salt Water Magazine! B) My heart has always been small hence our company name! :) So to kick off my 8 year anniversary of entering that contest, I...

I took another look at your build, and your aqua scape is just INSANE! I love it! :)

Hi Jewel, I own a small online business, you can google us just type in google search engine Micro-Reefs LLC Mike Guerrero... We feel that a pico is anything smaller or equal to 3 gallons of water. Above that volume it is referred to as a nano tank... You can see our thread here on...

Online might be the best route, because you get a lot of good stuff that is still alive, it will have a lot of ammonia but that's okay. Just let it go through the cycle period and when it's done, your water will turn crystal clear.

The extra flow is good, because it's a large tank and you will want a good turn over on flow... Take your time finding the right rock, get live rock that doesn't have a lot of die off and has good shapes so you can place it it the right spots and it will look appealing to the reefer.

Yeah, That was a very long time ago, so when I saw your new build it gave me back old memories of my system!

Take a look at my build under 72 gallon bowfront evolution, I use the same tank as yours! You might get some ideas and it has a lot of photos you might like!

Looks like you have a nice project starting! These tanks are lots of fun, almost like building a new car engine... :cool1:

No worries! How is your tank doing now?

Flat worms will bother and cause button polyps to die! Did they hitch hike on a rock?

I'm impressed....

Your tank looks really nice, the clown might be too big for your tank. Have you considered the goby family fish? They are a lot smaller and would do wonders in that size tank.

Small Styrofoam cup or paper towel. With the later, I would just lie it on the surface and it would skim the top layer onto the paper towel. Repeat process until the surface area is free of scum.

Where is everyone?
