Kevin's little 5 gallon pico

Reposting the tank video shot after hackers took out our postings in RS few days ago. I'm thinking of adding a couple of acropora frags

That's a BEAUTIFUL VIDEO Kevin! Love how the wrasse swims in & out of the rocks
I'm not seeing much room for any more frags. It has all grown in very nicely, good job!!

You can never go wrong with acro! I love your pico mate!!

Here's a colony of zoas that are quite rare over here. I've only seen them once and was lucky enough to get this. They give out a flourescent yellow under blues

YOU NEED A HUGE REEF TANK ASAP....

Haha I so wish I have the energy left to support a huge reef tank.

And THIS is the reason I go crazy over zoas...under actinics

 

[reefle]

sooo ridiculously beautiful

If there was something truly worth drooling over this zoa garden would be one of those things I would happily ruin my keyboard for!!

This thing is down right amazing !!! I'm loving how much you managed to fit into the 5 gallon !!! Did you ever add the sps frags ?

 

[nivek]

Many thanks everyone Unfortunately I didn't add the sps frags because I've really run out of space LOL.

 

[Wrangy]

How's the tank going? I'm sure everyone is exceptionally happy as usual

 

[nivek]

Thanks Dom. Everyone's doing fine except the sixline who decided to fly out of the tank few weeks back.

Good to hear That's unfortunate They are quite bad jumpers. Any thoughts on a replacement or just going to leave it with the dottyback?

 

[nivek]

Just going to leave it for the time being

Just going to leave it for the time being

Awesome, the dottyback really is a beautiful fish

Bigger doesn't have to be better (now now ladies, calm down).

Every now and then just like the 'oooh my 750 gallon aquarium', the smallest aquarium has massive attitude.

Perfect example of why small nano tanks have a place in any home.

Thanks Wrangy and Reef Commando

Sorry been away for awhile but here are some updated shots of my pico.

Full tank shot with coraline growing everywhere.

Favite has now overgrown the frag plug

Montipora growing well and is sending out defensive feelers just after a waterchange.

Grumpy "Sabre" the Dottyback saying hi.

Gorgeous photos! And fantastic growth! Welcome back! I was wondering where you went off to...
