Deleted User 6 Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 3-5g right now. it's going to be quite a while before i do something though. at least this Fall if not next year. Link to comment
fewskillz Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I know I suggested a 10 gallon already, but I think I forgot to say Congrats!!!! Double congrats on it being a boy! Link to comment
el fabuloso Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Sounds like a good plan! I miss mine already. Link to comment

divecj5 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 if i do a pico, i believe i will return to LEDs. maybe i'll make it an acan garden. picking up a picoaquariums barracuda this weekend... That didn't take long I think the Pico + LED + Acans will be a great choice for an easy-to-care and easy-to-travel tank. Are you going to wait to set it up until you move? Link to comment
Deleted User 6 Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 Thanks man. Yeah, it's going to be awhile before I set it up. Our moving situation is complicated (not bad, just several options), so i'm going to need to put the whole thing on hold until life settles down a bit. If we get moved/settled before the baby, I might go ahead and get it set up on my desk. If not, it'll probably be the Fall before something happens. I'm considering evil's pico lamp for the tank - from what I've seen, I think it'd be a perfect choice for something this small. and I've always loved acans. i think i'm going to go BB as well since hopefully i'll be able to cover the bottom with coral. on the quickness of the tank, my buddy dotcom is hooking me up with his old one that's been in storage - i'm trading him a few of my SPS mini-colonies. dotcom has shown himself to be a gentleman and a scholar with this deal.

divecj5 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Sounds like a great plan D!! I just know if it were me, I'd have a really really hard time letting a nice empty pico stay dry until the Fall Link to comment
Deleted User 6 Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 I hear ya man. I hear ya. I'm hoping my tunze osmo works with that setup... Link to comment
divecj5 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I'm hoping my tunze osmo works with that setup... That would certainly be a big help with evap for a tank that size. Then again, if you're running a single LED lamp, I can't imagine it would be more than a cup or two of top off a day. Link to comment
