bunjiweb Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Well you may think that after starting a successful Nano Reef I would go onto bigger things. Infact it has been the complete opposite and my newest project is turning the first tropical tank I ever bought into a "pico" reef. I am not planning on having any fish in the tank, but I am thinking of putting my 4 sexy shrimps in there and seeing if i can breed them. At the moment it is ticking over and I have just popped in some spare Live-Rock pieces that i blagged from work to get it going. The tank will probably sit for a few weeks before i think about doing anything else, but I will keep this thread updated when I do anything new. The tank: 4.8G tank 13W Compact T5 Lighting / BlueMoon Night lighting Resun filter with minature spray bar filled with crushed al###rog and a small sponge. 25W mini "sub" heater Ben Link to comment
J86 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 if u plan on puttin any corals in there, u might want a little bit more light. Link to comment
bunjiweb Posted December 8, 2005 Author Share Posted December 8, 2005 polyps & mushrooms should grow ok, I have seen similar setups with the same lighting where polyps are thriving. Btw the light looks dimmer in the picture than it actually is. I turned the brightness down. Anyway, here is a pic today with some LR in... Ben Link to comment
Sebea Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Very cool...What's the stocking list? Link to comment
bunjiweb Posted December 8, 2005 Author Share Posted December 8, 2005 4 sexy shrimps, 2-3 turbo snails. Thats it for the moment, dont think I will add much else other than corals. Once my tank is very mature i may consider a neon goby in there but for now shrimps and corals is all I want. Ben Link to comment
