What are your future plans for the tank?
Short term I'm needing to add some more flow to the tank. I am trying to decide if I will do a small wave maker like the ZKSJ, a larger HOB modified as a makeshift fuge or a DIY canister filter.
Long term would be successfully breeding the sexy shrimp and have a thriving colony of these cool guys. My daughters love them so if the breeding is successful I would like to create picos for their rooms.
I am undecided on which corals will be going in here, it'll probably be whatever catches my eye at the LFS.

That would be neat to turn it into a sexy shrimp breeding tank. We have a small little return pump on our pico that has some amazing flow on it (I don't know the name of it, it came with our pico).

My original plan was to do the flat 6 by reef casa but it would've taken up the majority of my night stand. That would've made flow so much easier to deal with since it's an all in one and comes with the pump like yours.
 
Goniopora, Favia and Acan were in my 40g but the goby in there constantly drops sand on these so I decided to move them to the pico. The goni got beat down pretty bad and I know it looks ridiculous in this small of a tank but if I ever manage to catch the goby they will be back in the 40g.
