looks like a good start, i've seen some amazing picotopes before, so they definitely have potential!
 
Thanx I might change it around still not sure seems to be cycling good too
 
Well it's been running and everything is looking good not sure how I'm stocking it yet I'll have to get some pictures today
 
It's a elite mini compact heater might change it out I her it adjusted just right but I'm not a fan of it
 
You need more flow.Go to Drs Foster&Smith and get another matching Azoo Palm filter for like $8.99.you will notice a big difference.Also do a water change every two weeks,at least half level of water. I got the small heater at walmart that keeps the temp at 78.It was the perfect size for the Pico.

Good luck

Ya I been wanting to do something with the lights and some more flow everything had been going good
 
I loved my picotope when i had it set up as a reef! Looking good! I used Power compact light 13" i think for mine with awesome results. and for flow I used an ac50 modified into a fuge.

some pics of the ATO (a must have in a pico IMO) and my fuge for flow
 
Just for flow? I think as long as you place it right it'll be good, you could always order it online as well
 
I put a azoo in the back forgot I had one laying around still thinking of how to stock it
 
If I ever try a pico I'm going to bite the bullet, get an Orphek pendant, and then kill myself making a sump and DIY skimmer.
