I'm excited. My Kessil is supposed to come in today. I'll upload pictures when I get them.

Nice, Seth. Gotta love that shimmer. It'll make you dizzy if you stare at it long enough lol.

I didn't just get the light, I also bought the gooseneck and the spectral controller.

love it and i know you want BB but how would that look with black sand

I love the look of keesils. I wish they weren't so dam expensive

I'm not opposed to black sand. Just hard to find stuff like that locally.

Thank you. It's not really that bad of a purchase for the smaller light.

Joe is correct with his suggestion. Its where i got my black. Not terribly important witb coral but it is a more coarse sand then i normal use.

Eh. I kind of like the ease of maintenance. Just siphon out the crud once a month and the water is sparkling.

In fact, I'm hoping to get the GSP to stick to the glass and spread. I was considering taking a scalpel to it and glue patches to the bottom glass.

I bought some black sand, but after washing it, I'm afraid to stick it in the tank. Some of the granules are floating. I'll just keep it the way it is. No big deal.

I also bought some seachem reef fusion part 1 and 2. Dosed some last night. Man, does that little baby medication syringe come in handy.

I spent another $40 and got three different types of zoa's, and three different color of rhodactus mushrooms.

So far I am very excited about this super green rhodactus. It's my favorite so far.

As soon as they show their colors and come out, I'll be adding new pics to the thread. I tell yah one thing that I really like about a pico tank is that it doesn't take a lot of money to fill it full of corals. I might have spots for two or three more frags, but then it's just time to sit back and watch it all grow in.

Updated full tank shot from the front.

You would think that the pics are coming from a DSLR, but it's actually my Google Pixel phone, if anyone was interested in knowing what camera I was using.
