SgtBhaji Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 Tank looks nice! Great progress so far. It looks like you might favor rics and zoas; something we share in common... Thanks... and Yeah, I do have a bit of a liking for both. I can see more of each appearing over the coming weeks. Link to comment
LylaPico Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 They've been going in gradually for the last month or so. Oh... I did think of one annoyance with the lamp ... there's no switches on it. You have to unplug each color from the outlet separately to switch them off. That's a little rediculous but I'm sure an inline dimmer is available somewhere.... Link to comment

I haven't looked though, I've just lived with it so far. Love the Maxi Really like this tank, nice and clean scape Thanks! Need to make room for another. Timers are your friend. Yeah... I really should look in to that. Link to comment
SgtBhaji Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 So I think that in the few months that I have been at this, I'm slowly beginning to get to grips with things and gradually starting to get a little confidence... so I ordered an ADA 60F. I'm not going to quit on my 4g Pico or remove anything other than some spare zoa frags... I'm in this for the long haul with this little puppy. I love the way it looks too much. Bring on the happy-fun-times with reef #2. Link to comment
SgtBhaji Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 Time for a quick update. It's a lousy pic though. (still not got the hang of this photo taking) Some of the Acans are for my new tank that's currently cycling, so I should hopefully have those moved soon. I think it's progressing nicely so far. I'm really enjoying this little tank. http://s1114.photobucket.com/user/SgtBhaji/media/4%20Gal%20Pick%20Reef/_4239236.jpg.html'> Link to comment
SgtBhaji Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 So i figured it's about time that I added some updated photos since the tank's coming up on it's first year. I've moved some corals from here in to my other nano, and some from that to this in the past couple of months and the tank seems to be coming along just great. http://s1114.photobucket.com/user/SgtBhaji/media/4%20Gal%20Pick%20Reef/20131213_203112.jpg.html'> http://s1114.photobucket.com/user/SgtBhaji/media/4%20Gal%20Pick%20Reef/20131213_202940.jpg.html'> Link to comment
SgtBhaji Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 Wonderful tank! Thanks very much! I'm looking forward to seeing what the second year of keeping it will bring. Link to comment
1.0reef Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Hopefully a lot! JMO you should order some cheap stuff off Saltcritters, plenty of $5 mushies, zoas, etc on there Link to comment

Marine Depot Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 So i figured it's about time that I added some updated photos since the tank's coming up on it's first year. I've moved some corals from here in to my other nano, and some from that to this in the past couple of months and the tank seems to be coming along just great. Hello, I am currently working on an article that highlights amazing innovative marine nuvo aquariums. I love your tank and was wondering if we could use your tank and give you credit for all your hard work. Please let me know, thank you! Link to comment
SgtBhaji Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Figured it's time to post another pic. It's still going strong, despite some Zoas being bugged by worms. Getting close to it's 2 year anniversary. I'll try get some closer shots when I can. Link to comment

SgtBhaji Posted December 5, 2014 Author Share Posted December 5, 2014 Thanks! The other one back there is a bit of a mess. It kinda had the roles of a holding tank and a pest tank. We're currently cleaning it up though. Link to comment
Azedenkae Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Looks good. The stock light seems to be doing a good job at growing your stuff. That mini-maxi is (relatively) huge! Link to comment
Odyssey350kc Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 This is a nice looking little tank. I love the sun corals if thats what they are. Did you buy it that size or have you been able to get it to grow. Link to comment
SgtBhaji Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share Posted December 13, 2014 Thanks! I got the sun with a handful of heads earlier this year and it's growing fantastically. It has well over 20 heads and sprouting more. I take it out of the tank and feed it a mix of mysis, brine shrimp and phyto weekly. Taking it out of the tank lets me feed it heavily without dumping too much junk in the tank. Link to comment
SgtBhaji Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share Posted December 13, 2014 Here's when I first got it: And this is it a couple of weeks ago: I love it. I picked up one that's all but dead for my other tank for $2.50. Trying to nurse it back to health atm. Link to comment

The maxi has grown quite a bit. It was always at the bottom of the tank but it decided it wanted to sit at the head of the table, and there's no moving it. As for the stock light, it does the job...Just, but I really need to upgrade it. Link to comment
