Frag Factory Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Consider this my entry, something I've wanted to do since the original Pico contest when I was just a teenager who got told "no more tanks" when asking my parents if I could enter. My tanks a "Hugo Kamishi" 12x8x8, it's the closest we can get in England. It came like this, with a horrible aluminium rim. With a razor, a little swearing and a small amount of blood I have this: The light is a PAR38 LED light, the original light on my 12" cube before I upgraded. I will pick up a HOB (probably a seachem tidal), a small heater and get going in a few weeks. I'll possibly also get a ATO (the Smart Micro), I run this on my other tank but would I rather I put that £100 into frags... Probably. I have 5KG of rubble curing I can make a scape with, along with a bunch of shrooms and other frags in my Pipefish aquarium. I have a good feeling about this 😄 Looking forward to this 🙂 7 Quote Link to comment

That would make your wife really happy. Lol But it's ugly and primitive. Yet, kinda medical grade. Lmao Quote Link to comment

It's outstanding, on my 12" cube it can sense when you remove as little as 30ml of water... which is annoying when you take water out to defrost your food 😄 1 Quote Link to comment

That's great news. Innovative comes to around the same price..... now decisions, decisions. ... Thanks for feedback on micro👍 1 Quote Link to comment

I think I mentioned it recently but I was a very keen follower of your tidal/surge system pico in the last contest. It was one of my favourite tanks I've remembered, it really stuck out in my head. 1 Quote Link to comment

It's ghetto but it works if you need cheap drip. 1 Quote Link to comment
