Cam's Wine Glass Pico Tank

I was inspired by brandon429's reefbowl, so I decided to try a tank like his, only smaller I stopped by Pier 1 Imports for a cheap wine glass yesterday. I then put some new sand, a little piece of live rock, and some tank water in it. I'm going to be using the Zetlight that I won, at least for now. I then grabbed an old Elite 799 air pump and got a foot of airline tubing. I then used super glue gel and glued the tubing so that the end was about a half an inch into the water. I ended up doing a really sloppy job, but it works. (Does anyone know an easy way to get super glue gel off of your hands? )

Here are some pics so far (I don't have my camera right now, so I had to use my iPod camera. Excuse the bad quality)

The light set up is kind of ghetto. I will most likely build something to hold it.







Here is the air pump that I'm using.



Lots of flow

 

lol, def need a tang for that tank

cool

 

I'm debating between a Gem and Achilles. Maybe a Leopard Grouper instead? lol

And thanks!

 

Make sure to do a 5ml water change every day

 

oooh predator tank for sure, grouper and lion, maybe an eel if ya add a bit more rock

Cheryl will love this tank

 

This made me :LolLolLol

 

Just did a 20ml water change. I'll make sure to do that

Edit: Were you serious?

 

On top of that, how about a Clown Triggerfish? Not too much of a bioload, right?

I'm not sure if he was being serious or not. I know that you have to be really precise with pico tanks, though.

 

Maybe....

 

Well i would use a syringe for water changes, 20ml is probably good. this way you get an exact measurement. I think top off will be somewhat tough to maintain. I was serious, its the only way to truly be accurate with changing water out.
