Very nice ... I want to set up a Pico in my bedroom! I want about a 3 gallon and want to stock it with Harlequin shrimp, They are awesome! BUT the wife would KILL me if I brought home another tank right now. I already have to barter with her to buy new stuff for the tanks I have now ... Massage for a spending allownace at the LFS!!!!


Very Nice though. I like
