Input Required :).

So I'm coral shopping and not finding anything I want at the moment. But I figured this might be something fun to try.

Ive never really had a small tank. And Im kinda wanting to get my hands on an Ecoxotic EcoPico 5g. And LED system Just wondering what your input is on it, If its worth it or not.

Thanks in advance! .

 

Get an ATO while you're at Eric.

I have had a couple Picos but man they need constant attention.

 

Fully aware of the attention they need . Just bored of the 120 I guess LOL

 

lol a pico will definitely cure ya of boredom, its a constant struggle, I loved mine, but thank heavens i got rid of it.

 

I say do it! I recently set up a 3 gallon and did a DIY LED build for the lighting, I really like it. The only thing besides my corals and clam is a snail in there, so I havent had any water quality issues. I just really have to watch the water level, but I've been lucky and I don't lose too much to evaporation.

 

Well silly goose that is my INPUT.

My intent is that if you're someone that spends a lot of time at work or likes to go away for the weekends eventually you will have a crash. :

 

Id love to have a clam in one but It would have to be a crocea I assume cause of size issues with a pico.

Id put one in my big tank but my cleaner wrasse is well.. He likes clams. lol

 

+1 hope ya have someone that knows salt, try talking a rookie through a pico tank crash. But they are cool.

 

Oh and about how many LEDS do you have over it? and watts per led

 

Would be pretty cool to have an Eco. Just keep up on the WCs with it, but it shouldn't be a problem.
