Micro-Reefs Aquariums Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I like that last picture, PicoAquariums and Micro-Reefs together posing for a picture! Link to comment
TristanC Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Nice!! I'm glad you like the razor as I love mine too Link to comment
William Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 So you like the razor? I am going to order one tonight i think. Link to comment
BadCrab Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 Yeah it's great. I have the 60w (Nano) and 160w (Largest they make currently); In love with both fixtures. The heatsink is a work of art, and the spectrum is nice. The cost, ultimately, sold me on both: no controller or mounting accessories to buy < OR SO I THOUGHT! But a sheet of acrylic won't be expensive and that's not Maxspect's fault :] Link to comment
Jay Wee Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Super sleek! Very nice! I say now you ditch the horrible monitor in the middle and put another tank there. Link to comment
TristanC Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 So you like the razor? I am going to order one tonight i think. Looks like I don't have to test fit, he was able to get it mounted with the included arm. Honestly man I wouldn't hesitate buying one, it's a phenomenal light. Link to comment
RollaJase Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 You definitely have an awesome work station right there . Link to comment
BadCrab Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 I picked up a big plump Ricordea with some yellow coloration in it at the LFS. They were having an anniversary sale, so Rics were $10 a polyp. The rock that the Ric was mounted to.. well... turned out to be a clam! An alive clam. With two colorful feather dusters attached - all for $10! Not sure on the species of clam, not sure that it will last in the tank, but very cool. He extends his siphons all day. You can see one of the two Trimmas I got (Red Spot Goby) perching on the left. Link to comment
PicO Aquariums Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Ok I guess I will just have to get one and figure out how to mount it to the PicO's because damn it looks good! Link to comment
kveekx Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Tank is way better with the Razor. Link to comment
Jay Wee Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Congrats on your Riclamster! First dibs on their offspring. Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I'm always a huge fan of sleek AIOs. well done! I don't see how you could get anything done at that desk though. When i had my 10g on my desk it was one of the most distracting things ever... in a good way though Link to comment
BadCrab Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 Hey it's been a while! Everything is growing! Algae is starting to get under control. (Thanks John & ReefCleaners!); This tank has never given me problems... big update to OP! taken with D7000 & Kenko extension tubes, minimal post-processing. Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Those mini gobies! Btw, you got some algae scrubbing to do on the back. Link to comment
BadCrab Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I was hoping the snails would do it for me. Lazy snails. Link to comment

Red_Blenny Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Beautiful picture update. So jealous how clear you can take pictures. Link to comment
Passaggper Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 What type of algae is that on the back wall? I have it all over my return, back wall and MP10 wetside. Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 dude, how many PicOs do you have?? Can we get a shot of ALL your PicOs? Link to comment
NanoTopia Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Looking pretty clean, setup looks sweet, I think I will do some rics in my new 7g ADA. Thank is looking pretty minimalistic, do you have anything else planned for the display or are you keeping things simple? Link to comment
BadCrab Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 What type of algae is that on the back wall? I have it all over my return, back wall and MP10 wetside. I call it brown sludgy crap. I think it's just a heavy dusting of diatoms. I brushed a lot of it off near the intake grills on the left, just got lazy and didn't do it on the right. You can see where i took airline hose during a water change and just scraped at it. It's really soft, no excuse for not cleaning it before taking pictures really. dude, how many PicOs do you have?? Can we get a shot of ALL your PicOs? Hahaha, unfortunately I only have 2 PicOAquariums tanks. This PicO Is and the custom PicO I use as my main mixed reef. Looking pretty clean, setup looks sweet, I think I will do some rics in my new 7g ADA. Thank is looking pretty minimalistic, do you have anything else planned for the display or are you keeping things simple? Thank you ; I planned on just keeping things simple. I added both Trimmas when I never planned on adding fish - they are pretty cool but hardly move (preferring to perch on a rock and wait for feeding time.) I'm waiting for the Ricordea's to grow out at this point, Ideally most of the existing rock will be covered in ric clones and it will look like a small slice of a matured tank. Link to comment
VABumpkin Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Dude get a turbo snail! I loved mine. He was probably the best cleaner evar! He cleaned up a whole field of hair algae overnight. And he had the cutest little snail face. Also, they usually learn not to bulldoze frags and stuff, you just have to correct them when they start doing it. Link to comment
BadCrab Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 Turbos get seriously big, my current clean-up-crew is sufficient - i was just joking about them being lazy :] John's snails are best snails. Workhorse snails! I usually wipe down that back acrylic when I wipe the glass, but I had been ignoring it, that's all. Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 This makes me want more ricordea... It's looking great! Link to comment
