Sorry the pics aren't too clear. I saw this thing cruising around my pico and snapped a shot of it. I tried to highlight it a bit as it doesn't stand out from the rock much. Looks like some form of snail, but no shell. What is it?

That's a good point. I forgot to mention that when I took out the mount I fliped the plate over so it now has "feet" to provide a gap for air. The screws don't fit back in that way (too short) but that's ok. I put an eraser under the other end so it's the same at both ends.

Here are some current pictures. New light setup Tank close up Even closer

Well if short is good then none is better, right? I just took the whole clamp and gooseneck off, leaving just the lamp. Since I have the clear lid I just set the lamp on that. Works great, looks better, and about doubles the light in the tank, (half the distance...). I'll post pictures soon.

Yeah, I just haven't gotten around to it. I am surprised how well things are doing with just the stock light and a "moonbeam" LED. I keep telling myself I'm going to build a nice hood to hide the lights, etc. Someday. Great idea! I'll try that. It does look a bit wierd with the lamp bent down...

Since Nov, so about 4 months. I'll declare victory if it's all still good at 6 months. I suppose he would have done better if I had fed him huh? :wink: I think the Catch 22 of gobys is they are small enough to fit in a tank this size but can't get enough to eat in a tank this size.

Yeah, I tried a 13w 50/50 but the power supply for the stock light doesn't seem to have enough horsepower to get it lit. It just flickers. I talked to my friend about a lid. While we both saw the possiblity of a nice eBay business, his wife recently had twins so he is a little short on time...

I thought I'd add my tank to the growing list of Aqua Vase users. I saw one of these and had to have it. I had done a 6g Eclipse before and this looked a bit more difficult/fun. It's been up and running for a few months now with better results than I had expected. close up: and from a...
