Hello All!

 

Recently a good friend of mine started up a Nuvo 30 and hooked me up with his fluval spec picos (V and this one!) (empty ofc :lol:). Ive had the Spec V setup in full for a couple of months now, but recently I decided to take our

Equipment:

Tank: Fluval Spec 2

- glued shut the slit that enters the false wall

- InTank Surface Skimmer

- Hydor Theo 25w heater, set to 78 degrees

- cooling will be provided by a simple clip-on fan (if needed)

 

Lighting:

- Coralife Mini Aqualight 2x9w Power Compact, this was just an old fixture that I had sitting around in my garage I plan to upgrade to LEDs (Par 30/38 bulb?) in the near future or possibly retrofit this fixture with them. I'm all for a DIY project with this fixture but i'm rather clueless about LEDs lol

 

Flow:

- Stock Fluval pump from my Spec V (temporary)

- Minijet 404/606 in the future

 

Filtration: Natural, Mechanical, and Chemical

Livestock: (nothing yet)

Clean Up Crew:

- 2 Nassarius snails

- 2 Cerith snails

 

Invertebrates:

- 3 Sexy Shrimp

- 1 Pom Pom Crab

Noice!

 

I have a par 30 from Boost LED and like it a lot.

 

Love your scape! Watch the sexies though...they WILL eat your zoas unless you keep them stuffed.

 

Take a look at some of the other spec builds here, and the Spec Owners thread in the Pico forum.

 

Looking forward to seeing where your build goes.
