Gotfish's pico

[gotfish]

Sorry it took so long to get these up, had some things to do when I got home. Anyway, hope this works for you. They are a bit fuzzy cause I didn't have the macro button on. There is chaeto in the first section and in the return section, a couple pieces of LR rubble. Pretty simple stuff.

how much water to you remove for water changes

 

[gotfish]

I do a gallon a week. I have to put in about a half a cup per day for evaporation.

The paint is Krylon Plastics. I used the same paint to black out the tank itself also. There is no glue. I used the aquarium silicone that you can buy at petco.

Nice nano..i remember seeing this build over on nano-reef forums

 

[small alien]

great job. I have one concern and that's the painted overflow. are you concerned about the paint toxifying the water?

If he used Kryon fusion it's perfectly fine.

With tank and plexy and a pump probley 50 with out light

 

[spllbnd2]

5.5 AGA tank costs 10.00 at Petco
Acrylic can be had at Tap Plastics in Lynnwood for like 5.00

Add in cost of pump and misc. such as silicone. But of course if anyone is like me and been in the reef hobby long enough you have a few extra pumps and silicone just lying around. *lol* Among other things.

Cheers,
