tibbsy07 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 that poor kitty needs a better home Agreed. Kat send me the pico and get a bigger tank for your kitty to play in. Link to comment
Veng Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 That kitty would love a 48x36x30" tank.... Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Funny... I was just planning a 5g Pico, Kat.... Already ordered the light. Guess I'm back. Link to comment
metrokat Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 This little guy is some kinda awesome. Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yeah kat I was going to ask what your initial thoughts were on the tank and stuff that came with it. Wish it came with something else/more/etc? Link to comment
Bosch11 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Are those little cats in the pictures your showing off the light Link to comment
metrokat Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yeah kat I was going to ask what your initial thoughts were on the tank and stuff that came with it. Wish it came with something else/more/etc? too early to tell. I'm still figuring out the remote and stuff. The actinic is pretty cool. The manual says the middle chamber fits media and shows a media basket. I'm trying to find out if it should have been included or it is optional. Link to comment
Lilies & Lace Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I have a yasha and pistol in my RSM. For fish (if I keep fish) it will have to be the goby family (of course). Choices are Eviota Trimma Yellow Neon Yellow clown Eviota's are lovely! I really like the Yellow Neon Gobies, you could even get a mated pair! Link to comment
metrokat Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 I would love to get a mated pair of YCG! Link to comment
metrokat Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 This is the top of the tank. Lil bitty pop open window for feeding. Link to comment
Boggers Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I wondered what that was on one of the first pics you posted. Crazy it is on one side....so much for target feeding without pulling lid off. Link to comment
metrokat Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 The spray bar is right underneath so the intention is broadcast feeding i guess. Link to comment
JR! Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 looks like there is water in the little window.... Link to comment
Smithjm5 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 This gonna be so cool! Following Link to comment
metrokat Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 I'm not sure if this tank will cycle. Put in old water from my main tank, seeding the filter media for this tank in the main tank too. Live rock from the main tank. I also threw in some skimmate. And old crusty bag of purigen. Might test parameters tomorrow. Link to comment

Live rock from the main tank. I also threw in some skimmate. And old crusty bag of purigen. Might test parameters tomorrow. I doubt it will cycle. It always makes me nervous if there isn't at least a small soft cycle. I'm looking forward to seeing this! Link to comment
Boggers Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Very small cycle if it does. Toss in some frozen and test a day later. Link to comment
Boggers Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 better than your other tank if I read that right. Link to comment
metrokat Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 Yes and no. The other tank has clams so I need the nitrate. Link to comment
iCephalopod Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Happy cat in the first two tanks, bribed to get into the pico! Link to comment
