Apply a clear nail tip, and then adhere on a 2nd clear tip over the top of the first using resin, but tilt at an angle so there’s a slight gap between the 2 tip. Once dried, fill around the edges using clear acrylic, leaving a hole at the top big enough to pour through water.You then buff the acrylic to refine and smooth. Then pour any glitter or rhinestones you want inside the nail, through the hole. Using a pippette, carefully drip water through the hole, leaving a slight gap for the aerating bubble.Holding the nail up and straight, seal the hole with acrylic then buff it once hardened. Then just airbrush or add a design or just buff to a shine.Tbh, I always found these nails too thick to wear, they look fab for photos but aren’t so practical.

1 Gallon Saltwater Aquarium and Globe Ecosystem

1 Gallon Pico Reef, 1/2 gallon sealed SPS reef tank, 19 gallon bog terrarium globe, 75 gallon planted tank with Co2 injection. Keeping ecosystems in odd containers changes the chemistry and dynamics interestingly and has a direct correlation to evaporation rates, nitrate binding or export, and temperature stabilization to name a few.

For example, a fluted vase design allows for an inner-diameter resting lid, which changes the salinity and saltcreep maintenance drastically vs any other shape. It also provides an angled surface for detritus accumulation, which is easily wiped for maintenance and this is (nitrogen) export.

A small square palmtop design, with an internal plant sub-division, becomes the first and still the only longterm sealed (non evaporating) coral reef aquarium, growing acroporid coral specimens into 3 inch tabular forums documented over a two year course.
Shape matters in pico reef design, and pico reef design matters to marine biology as a whole because it influences coral morphology, allelopathy, and new observations for science unique to hyperconcentrated niche environments.
thank you for stopping by!

I invite everyone to discuss the biology or problems associated with any aquarium care, and feel free to link your own micro reefs if you keep them.

Anyone who would like to research pico reef history can start at Reefs.Org and Reefcentral around 2002 and nano-reef.com
These forums paved the way for the explosion in popularity and are 95% of the existing documentation regarding progress of this layman’s science

It seemed interesting for all of us to share pico reef design concepts on this video, so post anything you know about them please or any reference material on the matter.

nice to meet you all and thank you for watching!

I stay active enough on this forum and in the marine and fish forums it won’t be too hard to find me so we can chat about marine biology and aquatic sciences if not here. I will also help you build and stabilize these, so hit me up in the comments if you start one.
