Eddie, this ones for you. You mentioned that you wanted to upgrade somewhere down the line and you have a 12 nano...well when I was helping out another member, I found this new fixture that JBJ offers/is offering. I think that someone may have already posted about it, but i thought i would...

lighting-wise, I have that same tank with a betta and a few live plants and I use this http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/P ... 004+113345 It sits right on top of the tank. I do have to say, though, that I think you will have much more fun with a slightly larger tank, say a 5.5 or a 10g...

It seems that there was a legitemate reason for isolating the supposed illegal images for further review, but I believe that it was handled incorrectly when eric(?) decided to DELETE the thread. I believe it was then handled incorrectly again when eric(?) was banned from the site by other...

I really do second this. If you have room for the eclipse 3, then you should have room for a glass 5.5 gallon. The eclipse is just not going to work out for a pico reef. There are a few different lighting options out there for the 5.5g now, and i know you will be much more pleased with what...

Thanks...everything is off to a great start...i'm having a rather difficult time attaching the xenias to a base rock, but ive researched different methods and will attempt it again today. as for the candy canes, i love them. as always, the color is better than the photos can show and each head...

Im pretty sure its a variation of a stomatella like gman said...i spotted one of these in my tanks....either way they are harmless reefsafe creatures. jesse

I get 10 gallons of salt and 5 gallons of fresh for about $6.50 including tax at my LFS...thats catalina water and RO/DI water. hmm... jesse

well here are thi pics as promised. I just picked all these up today, turned out I got more than I payed for... I got a frag of blue candies w/ 2 heads, 2 stalks of pink pulsing xenias, and a large stalk of red sea pulsing xenias. All for $11...not bad, huh? Its the first time i've done...

You know, a suggestion I would seriously look into is a 24" t5 ho fluorescent fixture. I say this because when I went to pick up some frags today from a member on another site he had a 48" t5 fixture on his tank and I have never seen as much color in corals before. The colors were jumping...

I dont know if any of the other inexpensive filters would do any good. Worth looking into though. Are you too far away from a LFS to purchase water, or does your LFS not sell water? I have a 16g and have always purchased 2 5g jugs of saltwater and a jug of R/O water ever 3 weeks or so...this...

I would say 50 to 60 gallons with plenty of live rock and a refugium for additional copepod production.

Very nice tank. it is one of those picos that just look larger than it really is. Love the hasha/pistol pair. Ive got to get me one of those soon! jesse

fuge tank Yesterday when I went to my dad's house, i found an old and long forgotten tank that I use to use for a brackish puffer setup. It measures 30"Lx10 1/2"Wx16"T. It is an odd sized (maybe show) 20g L that will work perfectly for my fuge...Im pretty happy seems how this will save me...

Great to know. I think im gona make my way to PetSmart today to pick up on a hagen battery pump...their website sells them for like $6.49, so we'll see how much they are in the stores. Jesse

the site is www.illuming.com and yes that is a great guy to buy from. I got my 70 watt MH kit from him and I would do business with him again. You may want to check this out, he should still be selling the 70 watt kits plug-n-play for $130 shipped ---> http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.p...

I dont think that these halogen bulbs are suitable for reefs. Im thinking that they MAY use them for planted tanks, but i could be wrong. I have NEVER heard of someone keeping this kind of lighting on a reef though jesse

I just picked up on a frag of candy canes and pink pulsing xenia...i should be picking them up tomorrow...pics to come.

I like the suggestion of breaking up the LR a little...and you may want to bump up the lighting to get more watts. 18watts isnt that much..JMHO. jesse

Interesting...have you seen any interest on the part of the clowns as of yet? are they checking it out at all?

Nice looking tank. Couple questions...what kind of lighting is that? How many watts? Is that LR or dead rock? How long has it been set up? Jesse
