I just busted up a piece of rock until the pieces were small enough. 

Okay that sounds simple enough I’m also debating if I should build like a 3-5 gallon pico first for security but I’m not sure. Granted I had my 75 gallon in Florida but had to sell when I moved to colorado

Thanks.

Super fun, this one also at my work desk at home.

Realistically, what is your routine like?  Ideally, if I were to set something up at work..I'd rather not have to come in on weekends unless necessary hah. Just want to get a feel for what I'd be getting myself into.  Plans would be VERY simple..like my mind intially goes to like a ricordea/zoa/softie dominated lil tank 🙂

Pretty easy, 

You should be able to go a weekend without a TOP UP, I usually top up about 60-100ml every second day. I try to do it everyday, but sometime forget.

Biggest issue is the LIGHT, if you can automate it, then is should be okay. Guess 2days of darkness isnt THAT bad.

Other than that, WC is very easy & quick.

Cotton Bud once or twice a week for algae, because you see it every day.

 

Pretty low maintenance

Cool, that's what I like to hear.  Would probably look into a timer for the light.  I'd most likely try out one of those pnw-custom micros.  They look good and people seem to like them.
