Hi Everyone,
I have a Pico tank which is 18 litres. Was wondering how many others out there share the same type of tank and what fish they keep. I currently only have a few coral and will get a fish soon. Pics to follow.

Regards.

I currently have a 3.5gallon (13Litres) tank. It's an AIO with an AI Prime light. I currently have a few frogspawns and mushrooms in there along with a super tiny clownfish. I tried a clown goby for a while but sadly he perished. I don't think I was able to feed him frequently enough to compensate for the small tank size. I have plans to upgrade this tank to a 6gal bowfront AIO I just picked up.

Hi,
I wanted to see how cheap I could set up a marine tank. Using all new equipment and eBay, it came to AU $75 which included the tank,skimmer,heater and led light. I'm so happy and very impressed with this mini setup. I used to have a 600 litre reef for 29 years and now my daughter has three marine tanks in her room including mine. I'll post some pictures tomorrow .
Regards
Michael.
