Hello, All.
I figured I'd start a tank journal for my little desktop experiment. I bought a used 4 gallon (or so) pico on Craigslist that came with a HOB filter and a heater (that I replaced). Started the cycle on 1/18/'14 with 1.6 pounds of live rock, 2.2 pounds of dry rock, and about a pound of rock from my year old BC14. Also threw in 4-5 pounds of dry sand and added a cup of sand from my established tank.
Here's the rest of it:
Equipment
ViaAqua 50-Watt Heater
Rio Plus 50 PH
10-Watt 14000K LED (ebay)
TOM Aqua Lifter + Timer as ATO
Unknown Mini HOB Filter
Corals
Orange Monti Digitata
Blue Acro
Blue Digitata
Thin Branched Frogspawn
Kedd's Reds Zoas
Aussie Platygyra
Candy Apple Pocillipora
Inverts
Blue Maxima Clam
Unknown Hermit Crab
2 Sexy Shrimp
Other Livestock
Green Banded Goby
Mini Carpet Anemone
