3G Reef

I had an idea on how to keep sps in a pico tank, lets see how it goes... trying to use what i have exept for the tank and lighting.

Tank 3G Fluval Spec
Lighting: AI Prime
Filtration: a sponge,carbon, live rock, live sand, DOS 100% Daily Auto waterchange from 180's sump ( pulls from return chamber, and dumps old into drain chamber)
ATO: Float switch, breakout box and solenoid
heater: 50w eheim
flow: tank standard 50gph pump and nozzle

livestock: 5 blue leg hermits, 1 nassarus snail, 1 trochu - planning on 1 fish maybe 2 and a starfish, maybe a max mini anenome.

test corals: chalices, montis, acan, green pocillopora, a mushroom and a finger leather.

more details to come, still trying different things with the ato. Cant decide on fish...I also feel like i should get a small long mr aqua instead, switch it up before im too invested...

Day 2 -

got bored and raided my frag tank... also have decided to go without an ATO and i will do 300% daily water changes, put a cup of r/o in every once and a while. things look good so far.

Very good pics. Not sure what camera you are using, but I really like the close up fine detail.
