I had a 2 gallon fluval spec setup about 4 years ago. It was up for about a year and a half before I took it down. I've missed it ever since. So since we are all home now I figured it's a good time to setup a new pico.

Its Mr Aqua 3 gallon bowfront with a kessil a80, reef breeders ato, 50 watt heater and a little hang on back filter. Nothing fancy just a simple setup. The rock is pukani that I had left over from my 225 gallon. I seeded it with a little piece of rock cover in coraline from the 225. Just going to let it run for a little while and cycle. My plans for it are some sexy shrimp a couple snails maybe a pom pom crab. For coral zoas and mushrooms.

Following along...I've got similar plans for that exact same tank, have all the components just haven't pulled the trigger yet- excited to watch yours evolve
 
No it's a cheap hob off Amazon that I had sitting around it's just on there till next week. I have a slim flow 120 coming in the mail.
