debbeach13 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 How are the fish doing? Link to comment
cuboy Posted October 28, 2008 Author Share Posted October 28, 2008 How are the fish doing? wonderful. yellow is happy and active, green is shy and always hiding (he's only active during feeding time) Link to comment
cuboy Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 i'm getting cyano outbreak! rawrrrr what to do? Link to comment
debbeach13 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Usually more flow helps alot. As with any outbreak reduce feeding and lighting helps. How are your water tests? Is every thing in the tank still happy? Link to comment
cuboy Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 Usually more flow helps alot. As with any outbreak reduce feeding and lighting helps. How are your water tests? Is every thing in the tank still happy? ac70 provides enough flow (I have it just tweaked so my sand isn't flying). I have reduced my feeding for the past day so far. Yesturday was lights out for my tank. It had about 2 hours of light. Today will be about 5 hours. Everything still looks healthy. I'm getting tons of stomellas roaming my tank too. I guess that's a good thing! free critters to put into my gf's tank. Link to comment
evilc66 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Adding a small power head like a Rio50 can help too. I found that the power head breaks up the flow from the water "falling" down the front of the tank from the AC70. Lets you run a little more flow, and becomes more turbulent. If the cyano keeps going for the next day or two, try a 48 hour blackout (we're talking towels over the tank. No ambient light). Nothing will be harmed from it. Link to comment
cuboy Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Well, since I don't have an additional powerhead. I did a 20% water change this morning. And shut my lights out (well not completely, I have my moonlight still on) and placed a towel around the tank. I'll see if it's better tomorrow, if not I guess total darkness. Link to comment
Khayman Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Cool looking picotope. Are you involved in the pico contest? Link to comment

cuboy Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 well my refractormeter came in today. looks like my hydrometer was dead on perfect reading. (too bad it broke last week =/ ) Link to comment
CongoBongo Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Great job on the picotope. i like your rock scape. are you using any powerhead. do you think we need it in the tank because the ac70 have a good flow already but do you consider to have one? hopefully someday my pico look good like yours and everyone that have a picotopes..

No I am not using an additional powerhead. I think I have enough flow already, there are a selected few that would recommend the addition of a powerhead. So it really depends on your layout and if you need it. I may need it in the future, but who knows! Thanks for the compliments =] Link to comment
evilc66 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 The biggest benefit I have found for adding a small power head is for breaking up the flow from the filter that goes down the front glass and disturbs the sand. The cross flow from the power head lessens how hard the flow hits the sand. I had a problem with that in my Finnex 4g. Sand would get blown off to the sides all the time. Link to comment
el fabuloso Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 That's a sweet little pico. How are the two gobies getting along? Link to comment
cuboy Posted November 7, 2008 Author Share Posted November 7, 2008 That's a sweet little pico. How are the two gobies getting along? I believe the yellow is more dominent. In general they're fine, my green one never really swam around (even before the yellow came along) so he's doing the same. During feeding time, the yellow gets pretty food hoggish. Link to comment
