Ok, so I've added yet another tank. Albeit small, but another tank none the less. I had a $25 Fish Gallery gift card that I won in the TOTM program in April. I never got around to using it and no one would buy it off me so I just said screw it and I bought the first thing that sparked any interest that wouldn't require me to drop a lot of extra dough. I originally wanted to just buy a ton of frag plugs, but the guys up at FG just decided to ruin my plan by giving me a bunch for free 
(kidding of course). So, as I meandered around their store I stumbled across their display pico tanks. My wife thought it was "cute" so I got it for her. This is actually a cool little tank. I got it home, opened it all up, and went to work on it. I took some live rock out of my refugium and a couple of scoops of black sand from an established tank, and got it up and running. The next day, throwing caution to the wind, I threw several small zoa frags into the mix. Seeing as how the sand and rock were both established and cycled, I knew it wouldn't be a problem. Anyways...zoas opened immediately almost and things look great. I snapped off a few photos and I'll upload them later. But I just wanted to share. I might even throw in a fish or some inverts soon. If I take that route, I'll upgrade the stock filter to a TAAM Rio Nano Skimmer to boost filtration. For livestock, I'm thinking clown goby, or some other type of goby. Again, something small but attractive.
