Ok so the 1.3 Pico was officially was born last night at about 10:30 P:M again I apologize for the delay it seemed as stuff kept coming up. I'm super excited to finally have it up and running as far as stocking this baby I'm not sure yet, but i do know i want it to be very bright in color:bigsmile: Let me know if you guys/ and girls have any suggestions for stocking this thank. Let see getting the rock was different had to take a hammer and chisel to get pieces to fit, but all and all my pretty happy the way it turned out. Lighting is a 8 Watt Innovative Marine 14k Skkye light. The return pump is 100 gph and the the tank, sump and stand I made my self.. Tank measurements are : 10 x 5 x 5.5 and the overall height of the tank stand and canopy is 22'' well here it is..

What? No wavemaker? JK! Awesome "little" tank! :rockon:
 
LOL... THE MP.005 were on backorder.. haha
HAHAHAHA! Those would probably cost more than the MP-60s! :bigsmile:

I found a few years back that I could make a small tank look much larger in pictures by using the approprately sized rock when scaping. Not just one boulder. Looks like you figured that out also. Scape looks good.

What kind of head loss ya seeing with that return pump? :tongue: What is that 100x turnover?
 
These SUPER TINY tanks do nothing but crack me up, I love them! I thought at first that was a little baby skimmer on the left in the sump.
