So I got me one of those DIY Pico kits from @Tenecor Aquariums. I was going to do a Betta tank with it but decided to go with a Nem tank instead.

I'm likely going to print an RFG but for now I have a printed screen cover on the return to keep snails and Nems from climbing in and blocking the return pipe.

I forgot to mention: this is going to house Joker BTA Anemones. I'll probably get a clownfish and maybe a small Goby.

Hector's Goby or Court Jester would be nice.

I started it with sand and water from the 125 and old, cycled rock plus MB7 and Live Nitrifying Bacteria so I should be good to add stuff whenever. I'll check the water tomorrow and get a clownfish if we're good (which we should be).

I want another clown. But, i dont want a repeat of eggs again.
I could just take one out of the 70 since I have 3 but they've got the hierarchy settled and I don't want to mess with that.

Question: Since this is going to house Joker BTAs, should I get a Black Anemone Crab? Basically a black version of the Porcelain Crab from what I've been able to find.

Alright, I helped a buddy move a 100 gallon tank from his brother's house to his house and set it up today. When we finished, he had a pile of gear and a 36 gallon bowfront he was gonna give away for free. I took a pump. Got some proper sized tubing, cleaned it with citric acid and a toothbrush and installed it.

Also, Joker officially moved over. If it looks good tomorrow morning, we'll get the Anemone crab!
