MAAAN U HAVE CAME SO FAR BRO., I mean i swear from the day you were asking me for advice and now i think i would need advice from you. LOL. YOur tanks are awesome. I want to start a pico saltwater tank ! Is it pretty easy ? What type of light and how many watts u have ? they have a 3 gal pico at my LFS for like 30 bucks i think with i think 15 watt light. Is that enough for corals ?

Nissan your tank is looking good. I think we will both battle the glass with this light being so strong for these little tanks but thats okay in my opinion to have light like this I can scrape daily.....

Zoas are funny, some grow rapidly and others take their sweet time. My lime green ones are really spreading fast while the red ones are growing fast but not as fast as the green ones.
I absolutley hate the look of live rock so I don't have as much as you do and each piece I try to get something growing on it to cover the rock as I hate the look of live rock.
Just be patient and they will surpise you oneday with rapid growth
Lookin good though.....

I'm loving the Pico. I hadn't heard of it before seeing this thread. I love my BioCubes and I think I'm going to pick up one of these Picos since it's so cheap to set up. Yours looks great!
