I have built a 2gal pico and was not sure how i was going to light it. I would like to try LED's but dont know much about them. I plan on keeping zoas only w/ maybe an invert or small goby. I was also wondering will LR and LS be enough filtration along with small weekly water changes or do i have to run some kind of filter. Thanks for the help in advance.
 
This is the model ( the 10 gallon one) I picked a few years back for my lil 2 gal tank with zenia zoas and 2 clown Gobi :wink: Hope it helps! It worked great for me till I got my 28 gallon jbj nano. Just put a small amount of Live Rock rubble inside and buy the cartridges with carbon :)

I used a couple of azoo nano filters for flow. i kept a little filter floss in the filters to catch small particles of crud, but they were changed out a few times a week. Just flow is fine for your tank, the LR will do its job.

You may like the PAR 38 LED lamps for the tank. It'll grow anything, last a very long time and not add heat to the tank.
