    Previously use the Dymax iQ3 for as a shrimp tank now converted it to a pico reef tank.

    Cycling done with mature tank water, live rocks, live sand and biohome and carbon in the back overflow filtration. Cooling it with fan and now working on another project on the ATO using the hamster bottle theory.

    Planning to stock it with Zoas, rics, mushrooms, 1-2 gobies(not decided yet, maybe yasha).

    Do sexy shrimp pick on zoas?? Google and seem some reviews that they might or might not.

    Share some pictures with the bros here.

    Bought 1 Arcadia Blue LED and make a holder for it. This will be for supplement and moonlighting purpose.



    iQ3 with the blue LED and stock LED turn on.

    Thank you. The filtration is through the IOS at the back where i put biohome plus and carbon, also the live rocks and DSB can be taken into account for filtration. As for water movement, i change the stock dymax pump to a Tunze mini pump running at 300l/hr for the IOS. The flow rate from the IOS pump is sufficent to get nice water circulation around the tank for now.

    Just curious... How is the tank doing now? Any update?
    Everything should be made as simple as possible...but not one bit simpler.
