Nice tank, but only 6.6 gallons??? Really???

theres probably a huge sump underneath. i imagine the blue tang is in there just for show and is meant to only be kept in that tank for a few months.

Yeah. I'm sure that tang comes out when he gets a little bigger. That guy looks like he knows what he's doing.

Awesome little tank though!

3 year old story, I'd like to see an update.

Me Too. Most Pico Systems that I have known of, get set up and are fully stocked from a larger parent tank within a very short period of time. Then when they start looking bad, the live stock is returned to the parent tank and they're abandoned.

That is exactly what I did with my 2.5g pico. I kept it going s few months, but those little tanks are a lot of work.
