My 7 Gallon Pico Tank

I just got it today for my birthday. The tank is clearing up fast, may be able to get 2 fish in this weekend. It's our bedroom tank for now.

I like your aquascape. I have been wanting to try out a pico myself. Maybe someday.

Do you know about rapid cycling in a pico setup with cured live rock, live sand, and live nitrifying bacteria? Picos have a well pico biology.

We are doing a daily cycle test to verify the stability of the live rock. Purigen is helping to quell and lingering decay.

We may sound like simpletons in the south but I'm from California so don't you worry none, you hear?

Oh and HER birthday is not until Sunday

First off, get my gender right, LADY. Second, I am doing daily checks on ALL levels regarding saltwater tanks and I don't plan on adding fish until they are where they should be. I realize you are trying to sound intelligent, but you really just proved that you're not.

I apologize. I wasn't trying to sound smart i was trying to be helpful because you didn't give any indication of experience if any at all. The point of a forum is to help others and give advice. So if me wanting to be helpful and try and help someone is perceived as me being smart then im sorry you took me in the wrong context. Good luck and happy reefing.

Posts = 181 and a signature with info... I understand. I have family from one of those "I" states and know how hard it is to not just jump in and help someone even when they didn't ask. Thanks for sharing your experience with us poor mountaineers barely keepin' our family fed.
