Pick a pico

[Fretfreak13]

I've been out of the hobby for a few years and am ready to get back in! I'd really love a pico. I've had nanos before, but never an "all-in-one" system. Could you guys make some suggestions on which tanks you like the most and REASONS you chose that one? So far I'm leaning twards an ecopico.

These guys have some really cool stuff. I have the 8.3g and love it.

Those are wonderful and are exactly what I was looking for! I was starting to get into the fluval edges too because they look cool, but this would be much easier with a full open top. Tell me, are the lights it comes with sufficient for keeping sofites and LPS? I know it SAYS they are...but I know companies love to sell. Haha

**also, what does the filter look like?

The filtration is the AquaClear line. They vary is sizes like all filters, but I have personally found these to be one of the best HOB options out there. Here is a pic of the filter (this is the AC50)

I do not have experience with the lighting, I have the AI Nano over my tank.

Thanks for your recommendation. I've decided on the AIO 6.2 gallon from them with the matching canopy and base. =) I'll just wing it on the lighting I suppose. I haven't read anywhere that anyone has had any problems with 'em.

Mike - the owner , is a really good guy. I have had nothing but excellent customer service from him, and have actually ordered a second tank from him.

Good luck with your tank, i look forward to seeing it.
