I guys I'm starting a pico reef in a five gallon hexagon tank
- Currently a 5-10 filter
- also a 60 watt light bulb I just bought but it's too hot.. still trying to find a solution to this
- plan on doing gravel+crushed coral (unless I decide to do sand or if sand is needed)(I don't know)
- I have a 65 gallon saltwater tank an will use some LR from that
- I have no idea about the reef part though.. Is it "frags" I need to get? I was told coral is for experienced reefers so it's out of the question
- if so what drags can I get? I have proper water quality (I use a screw-on tap water filter for my saltwater tank and will use the same for my nano and already have salt to mix it with..)
- also I really want a shrimp like really pretty one! And possibly a goby idk what kind though...
- I also have a mini power head do I need this?
So here is the start to my journel I also added some questions but will updat you as it comes...
I don't plan on cycling but if this is going to be a few week process and I fill it up in the next week I may have a "quote quote" mini cycle lol
