    Too much coralline on the glass...looks messy. But this is coming from the guy who keeps his glass spotless of algae. haha

    The shape of the tank makes lighting it difficult, making it even more difficult to see in the tank (reflection) than it already was, simply because it is all round (reflections are more distracting).

    I've been working at a small pico build design, myself...trying to overcome the cons that I see on this tank, while keeping the very simplistic and sleek look to the tank. I am still working out a few kinks.

    make a thread! I've always wanted to make one. have a ORA tiger goby in there. rather have a 5 gallon custom with a pair and some mangroves.

    Nah, I don't want any fish in there. It would be way too small. I thought about maybe 3 sexy shrimp. But that would be the only livestock.

    entirely too many zoanthids. stocking with green hair algae seems preferable to these space hogs.

    coralline caking is a rare problem for pico reef keepers in the sub two gallon range, don't plan around it.
    Im fascinated by nps pico reefs Ive been following a few threads reading up on that, a new arena to play in.
