Ratvan Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 How has the Damsel been for you in the Pico? Also what are your long term plans for the fish? Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately, I think the damsel is gone. 😢 Haven't seen him past few days. I think my sexy shrimp also met the same fate. She's missing as well. I was going to move both into my 20g after this contest was over. No more fish for this tank though. 5 Quote Link to comment

To be perfectly honest, I haven't been giving the pico as much attention as I should. Having some nuisance algae issues as well. Been focusing on my 20g and been a lot busier at work. Hoping to get it cleaned up and back on track soon. Or maybe I'll just take it down. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah I am on a count down until the contest finishes now as well, trying to sort permanent homes. Hoping i could use a Damsel as a dither fish as well 2 Quote Link to comment

Tigahboy Posted September 10, 2019 Author Share Posted September 10, 2019 So I was about to head out for work this morning and saw a big puddle around my pico. Ugh. Cleaned it all up, took off the HOB filter (my primary suspect for the leak) and unplugged the ATO. The salinity was low bc the ATO refilled the leaking tank, but things looked OK. If there's still a leak when I come back, it's probably a leak in the tank itself. I'm hoping it's just the HOB though. I ordered a replacement HOB awhile back thinking this cheapo HOB could crap out at any second, so I'll add the new one when I get back home. 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted September 11, 2019 Author Share Posted September 11, 2019 No leaks when I got home, so it was the HOB. Spare HOB to the rescue! 8 Quote Link to comment

Which model filter ended up failing on you? Was it one of those Azoo models from the Foster Smith clearance? 1 Quote Link to comment

seabass Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Looks like you got it all cleaned up. It looks great, but still waiting for some hula dancers. https://www.amazon.com/12-Piece-Hawaiian-Decorating-A1-supplies/dp/B01N216QHL/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=Hula+cake&qid=1568278099&sr=8-2 3 3 Quote Link to comment

I feel like he needs a dancing dashboard model that hulas with the flow! Can we find this man a reef safe model that dances? 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I've looked; there are some nice resin dancers that are about 4" tall. However, all the ones I've seen use springs to make them hula. You'd need to modify them to make them reef safe. 2 Quote Link to comment

It's made to be a cake decoration (so they should be food safe). Not sure if they would float or not. However, you could probably epoxy them down on some rubble or something if they do float. 2 Quote Link to comment

Tigahboy Posted September 13, 2019 Author Share Posted September 13, 2019 Got a couple top down shots. Japanese Pink Nephthea. Torch. Looks like it's starting to develop a green base! Or I just failed to notice it all this time. 🤷♂️ 7 2 Quote Link to comment
