teenyreef Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Not with nano/pico tanks. IMO it's easier to care for a smaller tank than a larger tank. The easier water changes only win me over haha I agree! Five minute water changes ftw Someday I'll have "real" nano (you know, something over 10 gallons). I don't know how I'll cope with all the work Link to comment

I don't know how I'll cope with all the work Seriously! I hate doing water changes on my 55. Kinda glad it's coming down this month. No more ugly trash can for water storage You've never had a tank over 10g? That's pretty cool actually. Most people don't start with nanos Link to comment

So I know all about that ugly trash can But my first reef tank was my 4g pico. I never would have even tried it without everything I learned on NR Link to comment

Picos are the best Have a thread? I don't - still working out details. Might not even end up with one, I barely have enough time for my regular 10g as it is. Link to comment
yoshii Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 I don't - still working out details. Might not even end up with one, I barely have enough time for my regular 10g as it is. If you do, post a link here! Aww, picos don't need that much time. As teeny said, 5 min water changes! Link to comment

Haha yes I need to clean the tank tonight Also, bad news guys, I have zoa eating nudis! I didn't add anything new, so I guess there must have been eggs from the nudis I got from a friend's tank a while ago Link to comment
Felicia Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Oh no! So sorry to hear that. Since its a small tank, can you pull the zoa rocks and dip them? I'm not too familiar with treatment for zoa eating nudis. Link to comment

I'm not too familiar with treatment for zoa eating nudis. Yeah, that's what I'm going to do. I did it before and it worked, although I guess then the eggs hatched and now they are munching on my zoas again Lesson learned, don't trust friends lol Link to comment
Felicia Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Ugh! Well good luck getting rid of them. Its just so easy to spread pests around in this hobby. After having the flatworm plague in both of my tanks, I am trying to be so careful with this new setup. That's one reason I got the leopard wrasse. I'm hoping she'll eat any pests that get by me.

jbb Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Love this tank , bummed about the nudis. I found a HUGE one in my pico a couple of weeks ago. Gave him a nice peroxide bath to show my appreciation of his visit. Been looking for more, but so far so good. Hopefully your battle is just as easy. Link to comment
teenyreef Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 How's it going with the nudis? That didn't sound right... Link to comment

Thanks, I'm just hoping the zoas will recover Yeah she'll help; they love to eat little worms and stuff Love this tank , bummed about the nudis. I found a HUGE one in my pico a couple of weeks ago.

Haha nice I'm using bayer dip, I really like it as a coral dip. However it still doesn't kill the eggs I guess How's it going with the nudis? That didn't sound right... I haven't seen any more, but my zoas are still pissed. Hopefully they recover quickly Also, look at what my chalice did to my poor goni! The chalice slid down the rock, and the big grey thing in the middle is the goni's skeleton But look how cute my clown is, he always does this to beg for food Link to comment
yoshii Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 This tank, along with my 3g will soon live on in my new dorm tank! Check it out here: http://www.nano-reef.com/topic/365034-yoshii-is-finally-starting-a-new-tank/ Link to comment
