I can't wait to see what the next 6 months have in store for me now that I have the fish that I want stocked...now it is just time to watch everything grow and mature in my tank....and of course add more lol.
-
Great lookin tank! What kinda equipment you runnin?
-
Hhmmm equipment. . now brace urself for this list. . . aquaclear 30,50, and 70 powerhead 70 has a hydor wavemaker on it. . filtration is done by 12 gal waterchanges every monday and an aqueon 55 hob filter w a ball of cheato added inbtween the dual carbon filters. . . cant get nesimpler but i dont understand how 2 plumb a sump or fuge so i took my skimmer out. . i want 2 get a sump *fuge goin w my 29 gal that i have here some day so i can get my skimmer back out and some more water 2 help w my quality. . . any takers on beer n a plumming party? i dose my tank daily w a cap of liquid calcium n feed coral frenzy and dts when i have it. i target feed my coral bout every few weeks but i am goin 2 start doing that weekly.
-
Very nice! How do your coral like the coral frenzy?
-
Things open up better w thd coral frenzy than marine snow but i think the dts gets me more growth n color. . .even from my fish.
-
Does Petland sell DTs?
-
Not that i know and right now they r n a pinch n piqua i no so i dont know when they will.
-
IS THAT THE CLAM YOU GOT FROM ME ? IF SO I WILL BUY IT BACK.
IT IS FOR THE SAME PERSON THAT WANTED WHEN YOU BOUGHT IT.
I STOCK DT'S AND CORAL FRENZY PLUS REEF BUGS WHICH I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MANY OF MY CUSTOMER IS ALOT BETTER THAN CORAL FRENZY.
YOUR TANK IS LOOKIN REAL GOOD. CAN'T WAIT UNTIL 1 YEAR PICS.
-
Yea its the same clam. i love it but i told u bout the attack from my angel on it so now that the mantel has grown back and it is opening up again i keep worrying bout another issue w the flame. . . i would hate 2 have it pickd 2 death. u have a coral order n this week dodd?
-

-
I cant add nemore fish unless its a small hippo n i catch my chromis n damsel. . .i am fish maxed. . . n u know me i am always looking. . . i will just see u wednesday. . . i need calcium n dts. ...

-
I have a few more changes left n my io bag so i will make my mind up soon. i do need something w more calc 2 help support all my calc. needs of my lps and who doesnt like pretty purple n pink rocks 2 haha
-
i am upgrading my lights this weekend from 4x65w pc lighting to 4x96w pc lighting so i am hopefully going to notice some color and growth changes in the next month or so. . . . am also adding a few pieces of sps to add some solidity to the look of my tank. . . it is going to continue to be mostly lps and softys though cause i love that movement they bring to the display. . . i will post pictures 1 month from when i put them on my tank to see if the difference is noticable. *crosses fingers*
-
I'll take the clam, if it's still for sale
-
noooo I am 2 late I want the clam if he is small. gthope I will have 2 trade you for him what do you want!!!

I lost the birdsnest tonight. . it came undone from its rubble and blew away. . . cant find it yet. :-(
-
got to glue that bad boy back to its rock. birds nest are so cool looking ;D
-
I had the same thing with my xenia I got from Lazy... I ended up finding it a few days later attached to the back of a rock. Thankfully it was a small rock it attached to so I was able to move it so that I can actually see it.
-
Birdsnest was never found again. . just rubble and glue residue. . . . . i will get another one soon. all my other sps peices are doing really well so i am going to get some nicer frags at the next swap or from ndr

-
Thx had to push reefers pic further down the page. . thread hijacker haha.
-
What are you feeding that blueberry? I assume you are heavily target feeding? They have very low survival rates so I hope you have a good plan in place.
-
that looks great what are feeding
-
I target feed daily w dts, coral frenzy and phyto feast. i rotate them. also i rotate 6 types of food (frozen only) i have it in high flow to help keep it free of algea which i read will grow on it. it took 3 days to open up but now stays bout 90 percent open at all times. only time will tell if i am going to be able to keep it alive.
-
I would watch out with two clown pairs in the tank. When they reach sexual maturity they will get very territorial over the other pair.
-
I got that taken care of it didnt take long for them to get mean. i now have one percula and the black occelaris.
-
K i got my mhs tonight and put them on for 30 min w o my canopy. WOW! i am seeing stars from it and i swear i saw dori wearing my oakleys. . . no seriously they look AWESOME i get my canopy tomorow or the next day and currently have 3 screens down to acclimate the coral. YIPPEEE. THANK U DODD WHAT A GREAT BDAY PRESENT!
