5.5g Sw

[westmoorenerd]

Hey guys, I'm pretty much just starting out with keeping fish. I started freshwater about 8 months ago and I have a nicely planted 30g. I got bored with that because the tank pretty much takes care of itself, so I decided to do saltwater. Not just any saltwater, a pico.... anyways heres some pictures of my tanks,

yeah, i figured a fuge would be better than a hob filter. i just bought 5lbs of ls from the lfs yesterday.... i got to buy some out of their tank, it has tons of detritus in it, but i got a few snails for free out of it so far. im waiting for my chaeto to come in the mail, then ill transfer everything over from my current 5.5 to the 5.5/fuge.

yeah, i got 4 of them for free as hitch hikers with the sand i bought....5lbs of ls for $5.18, plus 4 free snails, sounds like a good deal to me
