bagoegg Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Nice looking tank. Your coral beauty is beautiful. I have not seen one with that much orange on its side before. The ones at my LFS are always a washed out purple with hardly any other color on them. Any future livestock plans? Link to comment
UncleLuke Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 Thanks for the compliment! I plan on getting rid of the PJ Cardinal (he harasses the FireFish) and maybe adding 3-6 Chromis. That will be it for fish. I plan on stocking some GSP, 1or 2 diff types of Xenia, a couple diff types of Ric's, more Shroom's and Zoa's. Basically all the beginner corals. I am waiting on my VHO Ballast/Bulbs to start building a custom fixture before I put any more frags in. Link to comment
Hoosierfan Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 One piece of advice: get rid of the biowheel. It's pretty much a consensus around here that they are nitrate factories. i would suggest modding an AC110 if you don't want a huge setup with plumbing and all that. There are tons of threads around here on the topic. Overall, good work. Looking forward to seeing more.... Link to comment

I had a small frag that I had on my rocks. I just moved and thought I got all the mat up and a week later I have 20 polyps coming out. Its beautiful stuff but grows like a weed! When are you supposed to get your ballasts? Link to comment
