Speaking of which, I wanna murder my 2 blue damsels...They keep playing in the sand in the front of my tank and tossing sand all over my mushrooms and zoas...:supermad: Cant wait for this snow to clear up a bit so I can pick up my 75 and throw them in there...

I can understand. My damsel was an impulse buy and I regret it; I never learn. I might just up to a 20 or 24 soon if my super can tell me where the cross-beams are in our space.

I had bought 2 yellow tail damels to start the cycle in my BC but 1 died right away. He didnt look to good when I got home anyway. Figured hed pull through so I bought 2 small blue damsels. They ended up doing nothing but bullying the yellow tail and grew to prob about 2.5" now. The yellow tail hasnt gotten much bigger since he just hides most of the time. It just sucks cause they dont bother my clowns (they show the damsels whos boss) and I had gotten a firefish but they bit its antenna off and then he ended up dying in fright too under a rock...bastards. After I set this tank up and if they dont calm down, there gonna go for sale...well more like for free lol

Ha-ha, Aqua Pro you win! Nice 2 gallon.
Tried to get a decent pix earlier this week - failed miserably, will keep trying. I'm a total noob, so it's not exactly TOTM quality, but everything's alive and growing.

Lenny, I have no experience of any other tanks, larger or not, so I can't compare from my own experience, but it seems like some things are easier with the pico:
- No mucking around w. RO - just buy jugs of distilled water.
- I can change out 100% of the water to reset it, it's only 3 gal. Once a week I feed heavily then change out all the water.
- No sump.
- Pretty sure the equivalent lights, heater, chiller, etc. would cost alot more on a larger tank.
- It fits on my desk, so I can keep it at the office!
