My "Pico Dream" tank is here and full of greatness like you would not believe! (kidding)

I think it is a Fluval Spec III

Cost so far - $0.00
(yup you read that right. it was free )

Came with tank, heater, corals, inverts, corals, LR, LS, light, pump, media, water change pail, magnet cleaner....basically everything you need.

...and it was already assembled and has been going for some time. now...how long? Heck who knows.

Livestock: Peppermint shrimp, Sexy shrimp, Pistol shrimp, Emerald crab, Misc Crab, Misc snails.

Corals: Zoas, shrooms, sos, 2 rainbow BTAS, candy cane, chalice, a big pulsing coral...not sure what it is....and a few extra random corals I find every day.

Did I mention it was free? The only thing wrong with it is it has a very very very slow leak somewhere. I have to clean off salt every other week or so.

I'm getting up there in age where my all my tanks need to start dwindling down to just 1 tank.....or 2. Lifting all these buckets keeps me in shape but I'm not trying to break any bones here haha

I will be slowly selling off a lot of my corals and keeping some of course for the pico. I plan to overhaul it in the near future.

Stay tuned.
 
Where are the SPS frags???;):D

This is beautiful. I'm brand new and we have an 8 gallon biocube. I like the looks of soft coral and zoas. I have one hammer coral also. I'm trying to figure this whole thing out...how many soft corals ( provided they don't touch) and zoas do you think would be ok? All of our frags are small and so far doing very well.
