Skuba Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 What type of maintenance you doing? Considering doing a small macro tank with a 12x12 I got laying around and didn't wanna ruin the clean look with a hob and didn't feel like drilling this one Link to comment

Considering doing a small macro tank with a 12x12 I got laying around and didn't wanna ruin the clean look with a hob and didn't feel like drilling this one All I do is change out about a cup maybe two of water. Mainly to remove any debris. I try not to change too much water and let the macros absorb the excess nutrients. Link to comment

leonel619 Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 TBT. Was browsing online and came across an old picture of my old pico macro tank. I thought I had erased all my photos but I guess someone saved a photo of the tank. Glad I found it! **edit** found another one! Link to comment

For water agitation?No actually it's just one powerhead and yes, for agitation.The colors on this tank are rad! I hope you get some more blue scroll growth (it's my favorite!). Thanks. One of my favorites for sure. It's been growing well. Actually I just gave away about half of what I had. Can't keep much of anything with small tanks lol Wow that old one looks awesome! Thanks!

leonel619 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Nice tank. Do your hermits or snails munch on the macro? Thanks. No I haven't seen the hermits eat any of the macros and I don't have any snails but I think most snails are fine except for turbo snails. Link to comment

yoshii Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 This is looking great! It's already got that "filled in" look, love it Link to comment
leonel619 Posted July 18, 2015 Author Share Posted July 18, 2015 This is looking great! It's already got that "filled in" look, love it Thanks! I just moved some things to my other tank to make a little bit of room but it still looks full lol Link to comment
leonel619 Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 I picked up this 30g cube from a local reefer (free!!) Trying to decide if I should turn this into a macro display and move everything from the 6g to this, or turn this tank into a coral tank. Actually what I really wanna do is make a reef 'bommie' style tank with mostly gorgonians, some zoas, and an anemone. Will see how it goes. I need to make/buy a stand for it too... Link to comment
