Is there a section for pico reefs?

Glass needs to be cleaned a little. The yasha and pistol are fed so they are in the cave system somewhere. This is my Fuval spec3.

Not as a pico reef, but a really cool pico tank!

Vote for ten and under. I'm sure my family is interstated in this topic too. Me to, too....

All this talk about pico reefs. How about femto reefs?

Take some ruble with coraline on it, throw it in a lightbulb and call it a day.

I currently have two picos. Both 6g fluval edge. I do not have great pics yet, but hopefully soon. I am moving one from a 5g to the 6g soon. Huge upgrade :)

I have had 2.5g picos too. Just tore one down in fact. I put them up and down all the time. Depends on my mood and time. :)

By the way, the inhabitants just go into my larger systems till I feel I have time for a little guy again.

My current setup is a 5.5. I'm game for there being a subsection for them, I'd also like to throw weight behind the 10 gallon and under clause. Nano's are beautiful in their own right, but being successful with something this small deserves something of its own. I can't wait to see the vases people are running! It's just fascinating to me how these organisms can survive and often thrive in the tightest of spaces. View attachment 415409

I would be glad to create a section for pico reefs if we can get enough interest! How about you start a pico show off thread and is we can get 50 members to post their pico reef we will create the forum. Does that sound fair?

Hey guys and gals! Post pics of those pico reefs up here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/g...-even-get-a-subforum-for-picos-on-r2r.271663/ :D :D

Here is a pic of the 24w Abi tuna full spectrum par38

Here it is with only the par38 bulb on. The light doesn't seem to cover the whole length of the tank, but I think that it's plenty regardless. Time will tell [emoji39] . The stock fluval white 7500K lights are gonna stay on there for the time being and maybe be turned on for 2 or 3 hours a day. Tanks only been up for about 3 weeks.

Very excited

Its used to be on a 2.5g but the Tank was made of plastic. The algae on the glass became hard to scrape off.

What are those 2 coral the green and pink ?

Very nice. FYI they recommend 16 inches off the tank. Mine is about10 in from the tank . At first it was a little stressful for my leptospirosis and cauliflower coral . My acropora birds nest chalice favia torch montipora love it.

Hadn't read that anywhere, thanks for the heads up. Didn't run the light more than an hour today since it arrived so late. Figured that any bulb with a fan inside should be kept back a bit. Will observe tomorrow.

Lobo. That's an orange. The pic makes it pink :)
