My new Ecoxotic Ecopico
I finally decided to get one of these tanks, after debating it for a while. The tank is 10x10x12 holds a little under 5 gallons of water. The light is provided by 6 white LEDs and 3 blue LEDs mounted on an aluminum arm that sits on the frameless tank. I added about an inch of dry sand from a previous tank I had (after rinsing it like 1000 times) and added about 6 pounds of base rock. Once I added the water and adjusted the salinity, I dumped a cup of LS from an established tank in there. The heater is a Hydor Proquatics 150w, but I plan on switching to a smaller 25 or 50w one to be able to hide it better. Here's what I have so far, let me know what you guys think.
(Sorry about the phone pics, Its all I have right now) With flash  without flash (tank does light up kind of purple.. nice shimmer provided by the LEDs)  the aquascape I'm going with  Cycle day 1 lol. Let me know what you guys think.
