cdelicath Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Finally got time to snap some pic's of the new 3.5 pico! Kinda Bla right now due to the lack of coral but that will change. This is a PicO Aquariums Barracuda acrylic tank with LED lighting. The lighting is 6 Cree LED's 4 blue 2 white. Hopefully going to hit up the LFS tommorow for some new corals. Of course it's impossible to get good pic's with LED lighting because it's so bright. One of these day's i'm gonna figure out how to Link to comment

Colione Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 whoa! awesome little build! I'm thinking about setting up a small tank for my mom, so I'm following along. Great lights! $$$$ .. but awesome.... Link to comment
jestersix Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Deli shoots and scores! That is pretty sweet for sure. I will get some pics up of mine - Dad is finally out of the hospital, so should have some time... What setting are you using on your camera? Looks much better than I have been getting.

cdelicath Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 Oh damn... you are selling these things too... My wife is going to kill me... Yep... The lighting is getting a major overhaul for next year and I have 6 new tank designs also. Holy #### that a f###ing amazing tanks.A little to rich for my blood 160 per light whats the output on them. I hope to drastically change that next year with the new units. Deli shoots and scores! That is pretty sweet for sure. I will get some pics up of mine - Dad is finally out of the hospital, so should have some time... What setting are you using on your camera? Looks much better than I have been getting. I gave up on settings again due to the lack of time and shot RAW in auto mode without the flash and adjusted in lightroom for the exposure issue. I know there are some post's somewhere in the Photo forum about setting. Did you get your new camera then? Link to comment
jestersix Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Yeah, just haven't had time to play with it much. Going to try and take some shots tomorrow when the lights come on. The little bit I have used it makes me happy - managed some great pics of my grandson playing!! Not having a lag on the shots makes that fun for sure... I'm really anxious to get some good pics of the Green and Purple Acan in my Barracuda, it is loaded with babies all around the edge of the frag! That and the Micromussa are growing the fastest. Going to move a couple of little Monti frags and see how they do... Link to comment

Going to move a couple of little Monti frags and see how they do... I am amazed how quick stuff grows under LED's. My monti's in both the BC14 and the Barracuda are growing like weeds and super fat and colorful. That's how I talked Laura into our DSLR was to take pictures of the little one. She figured it out when I had it up on the tripod in front of the tank a hour after I got it Link to comment

jestersix Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I have one of the glass Barracuda tanks and they really are great - I will be posting a product review later in the week. Link to comment
evilc66 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I'll have my Barracuda review up soon too. Nice pics Deli. Hope the tanks sell well for you. Link to comment
Coralkeeper Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Here are a few: Very nice!! Did you build it yourself? Can you post a few pictures of the under side so I can see the LED's please? Link to comment
GLino Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I can't wait to order one of these in the near future finding a good pico light isnt easy. Link to comment
minimonsterLED Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Deli...good luck with your site and product line. It's exciting to see new high quality options in this industry. Link to comment
cdelicath Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 Got some new coral that I am acclimating now I will get some pic's tonight. I will also get a pic of the underbelly of the light for you. The light that I have I will no longer be making I have a few left but there will be a new line coming out this winter. I will be concentrating more on the tank designs and possibly custom tanks. The lighting will be outsourced but don't worry I don't mean china way closer to home then that. Most likely the unit will be universal as apposed to the proprietary setup I use now. I have really great ideas for tanks and I am working with my local glass company to not only bring the price down but offer low iron starphire glass in smaller tanks like ours. Link to comment
