The most UNDERWHELMING build thread ever

EricTheRed

No, I'm not a communist..
Here is my new 3G Picotope :) It is almost done cycling. Once it is, I'll be adding all the ric's I bought during the last group-buy. I'm thinking a a couple sexy shrimp and a pair of Bengaii's. Probably add a few zoas. I expect a new PAR30 under the tree in a few days. It will be in my office with my fowlr so I'll have one more distraction to keep me from working ;)

Feast your eyes on this bad boy!

Haha, yeah, that's a dead acro for texture. I'm thinkign about adding another piece on the right side.
 
Looks good. I would double think the Bengaiis. They have been known to eat others. That is if you truly are thinking about the sexy shrimp, which would be an awesome idea with the Rics.
 
You mean the Bengaii's might eat the sexy's? If I went sexy's only, how many do you think I could get away with? They max out at 1.5" so I was thinking 4, if no fish.
 
Almost done with the cycle, just waiting for the nitrates to go down. Then I'll cover much of that rock with ric's. Once the PAR30 goes over it, I'll probably put a little pink birdsnest in there from my 90 and see how if does.
 
I decided not to go with any fish and swapped out the stock PC for an LED fixture. The ric's came from the last group buy and are quite nice! The LED's might be a bit much but at least they won't look anemic like they did under the PC's. I have 5 sexy shrimp that seem to enjoy being at the apex of the food chain. Diatoms just ran their course so I thought it was due time for an update.


Here's a video. Hold onto you chair, this is pretty intense...
