New 3G nano

[jamiehill]

My wife bought me a 3g JBJ Picotope tank last week. I decided to set it up on my desk at work.

I added a 25W heater and a PowerSweep powerhead for some more flow in the tank. It has been set up for a little over a week now.

I took some of my extra rock from the sump of my tank at home and bought some sand. I have been able to keep the temp right around 80. I just bought a new 24W PC Odyssea light off eBay today.

I am planning on fragging my Frogspawn at home and bringing in a head of that for this tank once everything stabilizes. For inhabitants, I am thinking 3 Sexy Shrimp, the Frogspawn, and some zoos. I don't think I want to put any fish in because of the size of the tank.

It is Nature's Ocean white sand. I got it at Petco.

That's a really nice looking nano (pictotope)!!! Very cool! Once you don't sneeze too close to it...I think you will be fine J/K Thanks for sharing. I may have to get one of those to put in the baby's room when she arrives next month...

The purple coke cup is my topoff system. Fully manual right now, but I am working on an auto topoff for it.

FYI, If anyone is looking into getting a small nano tank. Denny's Pet World in Kirkland has these on sale for $39.99. The kit comes with the tank, a HOB filter and the 9W light.
