CodeToad Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 I would like to introduce to everyone my 2.5 gallon AGA If your interested you can see the specs on my webpage here: Matt's Pico Reef Construction I figured I would keep the talk short and get on with the pictures, but first I want to give a VERY special thanks to Bryan over at www.thelogicalreef.com for the INCREDIBLE corals and service. 9 out of 10 of the corals in there are from him. He took time out to work with me and make me some AWESOME coral/zoa packs. I have never had a better experiance purchasing a product in my life, from corals to the kitchen sink. Thank you Bryan! On with the pictures! Full tank shot 11-20-03 Cranberry Zoas Cool Zoa Mix There are lots more pictures and information on my webpage under my reef section, then check the 'New Pico Reef' ToadPool.com Let me hear those comments Link to comment
Sarnack Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 Very nice on the pico! How long have you had that Maxima in your nano? How's it been doing? I'm thinking of getting one and have a very similar setup. Dave Link to comment
Spencerx Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 wow absolutly beutifull. looks alot bigger than a 2.5. What color bulbs are you using? Link to comment
AMcNeice Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 That's pretty sweet, definitely doesn't look like a 2.5 Link to comment
2D_Todd Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Thats awesome... I like the aquascaping. Link to comment
CodeToad Posted November 21, 2003 Author Share Posted November 21, 2003 Thanks so much for all the kind words guys Sarnack: I have had that clam for about a year and 1/2 now. It is doing great! The only thing is that in the 20 gallon I use natural salt water, so that may or may not contribute to the sucess of that guy, I coudln't tell you for sure. Spencerx: It is 10,000k and 03 actinic Check out my webpage for all the details on that kinda stuff. Here is a picture for size reference to show just how little this guy is, this picture (lights out) is next to a one gallon water jug. Link to comment

kennerd Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 mmmm..that multi-colored zoo rock reminds me of Fruit Stripe Gum....remember weird multi-colored Zebra on the package, old folks?? Link to comment
Jahkaya Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Jerome: Coad has a Max under 2x65 in his 20. Takes a bit of work to maintain a clam under that lighting. Link to comment
birdman204 Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Yipes , Stripes , Fruit stripe gum...] Looks good. Link to comment
onthefly Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 HMMMM! The gum with 4 sec flavor! You ended up with cheek full of an entire pack.....Awesome! The good old days! Link to comment
OneOfDaZZZ Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 yep have to old the old 4 second flavor! The saddest part about that gum was that the 4 seconds wasn't even very good either. Those marketing people were pretty damn smart! Link to comment
CodeToad Posted November 26, 2003 Author Share Posted November 26, 2003 nalbar: The K&N is great, I love mine C Jerome: Jahkaya is right, it is in my 20 gallon with 2x65. It really isn't all that much work though. I do use NSW in that tank, but the only other thing I do to him is once a week give him a direct shot of DT's. I used to LOVE that gum but looking back it did suck... Thanks for all the kind words, makes it all worth while Link to comment
onthefly Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Code - did you get the candy cane from bryan as well? I've been eyeing his $10 frags for a month or so! Link to comment
TiGs Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Awsome pico. How long have u had it setup? Link to comment
BlackSumbel Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Another tank to which i can only say: "Sweeeeeeeeeeeet" I'm probably going to do a little pico (1.66 hex from wallyworld) on my desk soon. Mostly as a frag tank. 'Cause... y'know... might as well put them somewhere fancy I -love- the sarcophyton. I've always had a thing for those. How's it doing? Easy to care for? -Sumbel.

CodeToad Posted November 26, 2003 Author Share Posted November 26, 2003 I can't help but smile when I read ya'll post, thanks so much onthefly: I did get the candy cane from Bryan, its a great little coral TiGs: I have had it set up for about 5 months or so I think, not all too long but it cycled FAST at the beggining. BlackSumbel: I got the toadstool from Bryan with my first coral order. It has been doing great, some days it extends its polyps so much they skim the surface of the water. Somedays it seems not to extend quite as much, but usually it is in between the two extremes. So far so good Link to comment
