Just thought I'd update this thread. I ended up breaking this tank down a couple of weeks ago and moved all the corals in to my big tank. There was nothing wrong with it, in fact it was thriving in spite of my neglect, but I'm at a stage in my education where I barely have time to eat every day, let alone take care of two tanks. My big tank is suffering, and rather than weekly water changes, my little tank was getting at best monthly water changes, and at worst bi-monthly water changes. I didn't even have enough time to magnet the glass so it looked like crap more than often than it didn't
I'm keeping all the equipment though so perhaps one day my pico will rise again!
