Hello my Name is Orlando I've been in hobby for over 15 years. My latest adventure in reef keeping involves this 4 gallon pico reef. I upgraded the return pump to a cobalt j400 and my light is a kessil a80. Used live rock to establish aquarium and its been running for about 11 months now. I have a couple corals I've had for over 9 years in this pico. One of which is my bounce blastos that seem to be the main showpiece in my pico. I am starting to work on a upgrade to a 14 gallon biocube I am de-rimming and upgrading pump to a sicce usa syncra 1.0 with a random flow generator nozzle. I chose the 14 because if the dimensions being proportion to the marinelands dimensions. I just wanted to give my corals a little space to grow. Hope you enjoy my thread!

Thank you! It was very hard for me to get the courage to move all these guys to the bigger tank but things went smooth and is starting to look almost like this but with a bit more room for corals to grow.
