Hi all,
Thanks for taking the time to view this.
Firstly I have done some searching on this forum at PICO tanks and will continue to do research before committing.
However... As this is my first SW tank I am open to all ideas and thoughts.
I have OCD so the aesthetics need to be minimal, for my 5G Fluval Chi I would prefer not to have lots of cables or things inside the tank which ruin the appearance. I believe in less is more if possible.
I saw a few YT videos of PICO setups with 1 fish etc and happy to look at this option, maybe a Domino Damsel or Clown?
I really like the Idea of Coral, however, I understand that the Fluval Chi Light won't do the job?
The tank was abandoned in my garage for about 3 years and is now CLEAN!
Have any of you got a Chi? Or had one?
All input welcome and as mentioned, no rush so let's get it right!
(As a complete SW newbie I need advice on the sand, rocks the lot! No such thing as too much information)
Thanks again![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
OH! I almost forgot........... If we can do this and get it right so that the Mrs likes it. She has given me the all clear to make a rather large hole in the adjoining wall between the kitchen diner and the kids' playroom. Of course, it will all be documented on here for all to see!
