Babycakes Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 i'm trying to figure out how this is a pico....hmmm.. lol strawberry shortcake stools. that must've been the deal breaker Link to comment
Fishfreak218 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 what do you mean babycackes??? to find the tank volume you do LxWxH....and then divide by 231....so lets do the math... 23x5x5= 575 then divide 575 by 231 so...575/321= 2.4891774 ....round that to 2.48g's a little under 2.5g's it is a pico..(without the sump) Link to comment
FishMaster1000 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 how many bulbs are in there, 6? or is that just the reflection off the reflectors?also, how much does a light setup like that cost? im in the lighting market for my 29g now, and its either 250w MH, or some VHO There is only 2 bulbs in that setup. I do not know off the top of my head how long a 29 gallon is but if its 36" nanotuners.com has that setup that will fit it. I think it may have 4 bulbs though! Link to comment
Smada77 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 So when Tigahboy wins this... What's going to happen to his Platinum Reef prize? It sure seems like he's going through a whole lot of effort so he doesn't have to dish out that extra $50 gift certificate! Hey, Dennis, can I have the Plaitnum Reef gift certificate if/when you win? I promise to spend it all in one place! Link to comment
bogart Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 I just want to see the tank, but looking good. Link to comment

I promise to spend it all in one place! Haha. I'm not doing this for the prize. And if by some chance I ended up w/ the PR prize, I'll probably pass it along to someone else. =) And the fixture has only 2 bulbs. 23" in length. Should fit nicely over the pico. Link to comment
Travis Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Nice lights Tigah! In order to win, I may have to strap my 250w MH over the tank Link to comment
FishMaster1000 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Any updates Tigah? You have gotten me so curious. Your feeding just enough information to reel everyone in and keeping them in suspense! Link to comment
artarmon42 Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Hmmm just came over for a visit... Tigah putting T5-HOs over a 2.5G pico, this will be fun to watch Link to comment
jmorris Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Ah ha... figured it out! (sorry I'm a little slow ) Zap's comment about Yosh just made me realize what your doing! I just talked to Yosh about that design a few days ago (lol... he suggested I try and use it in this contest... hind-sight is 20-20 I guess)! I just hope what Zap suggested doesn't really happen! What a wet/salty mess that would be, huh? good luck again. Jared p.s. - I still think I'm gonna win. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted October 24, 2005 Author Share Posted October 24, 2005 like I said, prototype has already been made. didnt turn out to be a wet salty mess, so I think I'm covered. Link to comment

ejls2 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Hi Dennis, Going back to the ever so important topic of theme song choice, surely there can be only one... "Eye of the Tigah!" I can see the video now... It's the eye of the Tigah, it's the cream of the fight (With your boxer picture) Risin' up to the challenge of our rivals ('05 logo) And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night (Mantis pic) And he's watchin' us all in the eye of the Tigah Waddya reckon? I'll definitely be following this one with interest Good luck! Ed Link to comment

p.o.t.u.s Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Tigah, you wouldn't be crazy enough to be making a pico surge tank, would you? That'd be pretty darn awsome Link to comment
