pj86 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 Got myself a present!!!!!!! Link to comment
pj86 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 So I went to my LFS and everyone knows how that goes. I went in to just get some RO/DI water but then began seeing around, the store had some neon gobies and this time I wanted to get a pair. I began observing them for a few minutes and was certain that I had found a mating pair. So currently I have a pair in my 2.5 gallon and they are so close to each other, seems like they cuddle all the time, I will try to capture it on video. That is not all the story. So when I was walking out the store, I saw they had new aquariums in. And one just caught my eye, I had to have it. Never seen the design before, It is an aqua one panorama 60, it has a bow front and it is a 7-8 gallon tank. Im so excited about this new tank. The pico will remain as is, no breaking down the pico, I have become to attached to it. I hope this new tank can compare to the pico some day. Well here are some pics Link to comment
castiel Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Cute goby pair =0) And yeah, I have seen that tank a few times down here and thought about how great it would be for a reef. Look forward to seeing it start up! Link to comment
pj86 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 It is the first time I have seen them being offered here. It will not be long before I get it started. Link to comment
pj86 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Share Posted October 9, 2011 What light should I get? The tank is 24" long Link to comment
.Newman. Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 LED to the max if you dont want to spend money on bulb changes definitely go with LEDs (maybe make them) otherwise your best bet would be a 150W MH lamp or some sort of T5. Link to comment

What do y'all think about this light, http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?...p;#entry3551485 ? By the way the tank is going to be mainly dominated by SPS. Link to comment
pj86 Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 that will work well. Hmm went with 2 ecoxotic PAR38 14k bulbs, hopefully I like them. I read reviews about the MH and they said it releases way to much heat for the price of the fixture, that is why people sell them. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 well yes, MH fixtures are hot... Link to comment
castiel Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 For a minute I thought you had bought two PAR38s for your 3G pico =0p Link to comment
pj86 Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 lol castiel, imagine the brightness. Wow, I totally forgot how expensive it is to start up a tank, Link to comment
gritchie4 Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 That is a nice new tank. Love the look and those dimensions. Should be epic just like the pico. Link to comment

So a little update on my pico tank. I was looking around and saw that my pom pom crab is carrying eggs! Im pretty excited about it, not sure if I will give it a try to raise them, will be much harder than sexy shrimp. Link to comment
andrewkw Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 You will have to raise little pom pom's too Link to comment
