Ok, so to start off, this aquarium is a Fluval Chi, a 5 gallon, 10”x10”x12” aquarium that was a betta’s originally, I upgraded the betta’s tank, and turned the Fluval Chi into a saltwater aquarium, I forgot to take photos of me painting the back of it, and adding sand and rock. Also I am using a Aquaclear 50 HOB as the filter. I intend for this pico to become a lps and zoa tank.

Next I bought a budget Fluval Marine 3.0 and setup the light, and rescaped the aquarium, here is the after product.

Tomorrow I will be buying corals from Jason Fox from his 11th anniversary sale.

Good luck, it looks like a good start. I'm just in the process of downsizing to a 40g aio and your Pico tank gives me hope!
