Awsome little tank

Woah this tank is so colorful! Amazing!

I love how that sinularia near the filter compartment looks. How fast does it grow, and are you using carbon to avoid chemical warfare? I might consider one for my nano

It hasn’t been growing too fast and I haven’t had to do any pruning yet. I do use Chemipure blue nano which has both carbon and something similar to purigen

Thanks for replying! I don't run any carbon right now and I have a Sinularia dura already with no ill effects, I think I'm going to look for one similar to yours to fill that empty space in my nano! And if I notice anything fishy I'll just add some carbon in the filter compartment.

For my tanks I’ve always run carbon, more to help keep the water nice and clear. You probably don’t need it

Pico reef has made it to one year! I really like this tank and it is doing awesome. I may have to trim the sinularia leather soon.

I just love this tank! How do you trim a sinularia? I will have to trim mine soon as well.

My God God bless gorgeous tank tempted to the same thing

I haven’t yet, so I have to figure that out myself

Clean fresh blade, slices right through. I usually iodine dip & add fresh carbon when trimming any leathers though. They can get grumpy and upset other inhabitants

Wow that's really impressive, amazing growth!

 

[kiswanson]

My Pico reef tank is the model for the Kraken lid apparently. I just ordered a new one from them with a feeding port. They make really good lids and accessories

Amazing growth for your tank!!

I found you on Youtube! Glad you have a Reef2Reef forum! I have riccordia and RFAs in my little evo also (well big compared to your tank) and have found RFAs/Zoas/Riccordia all dont seem to mind each other.

Any tips/suggestions on keeping RFAs nice and happy? Truly a beautiful tank! Love all the different colors.
