ryanmilo Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Nice tank! I am ordering my solana this week with the 250 W sunpod. Nice to see what 35# live rock looks like. Did you order it online? Are you starting a refugium in the back? OOPS just saw you are starting a fuse. Link to comment

ryanmilo Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Hey Jason, Just checkin in, have you added anything to your tank? I am still cycling and considering an ATO those bottles do not work! I love my solana and the light, no temp problems at all (well one time when I forgot to put my fans on). How long has it taken for yours to cycle? Or are you still cycling? I havent ran my skimmer yet, have everything on timers, and have lots of HH's. Are you going to leave the top off or have some egg crate or mesh? I think I will start a new thread once my tank cycles. Hope all is good with your tank, Ryan Link to comment
Jason7504 Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 I have gotten some new stuff in my tank since i last posted a mushroom: got some new additions a whitish acro (atleast i think it is) ORA green birdsnest orange monti pink/blue ric awesome frogspawn thanks to dennis cleaner shrimp greenish hydro algae blenny FTS Link to comment
ryanmilo Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Lookin great so far! Awesome blenny, sweet frogspawn. I want one. Link to comment
Mr. Thingdoer Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Watch that green birds nest at the bottom. It might just look that way in the pic, but it appears to be losing tissue. Also, your "Hydro" is a Hydno (Hydnophora). The Acro Millepora should also have a color other than white. Link to comment
Lone-Wolf Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Do you have any pictures of the 2nd chamber fuge??? I am considering the same mod... How do you like it... Link to comment
slaychild Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I turned my second chamber into a fuge also. Link to comment

Jason7504 Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 I didnt update my tank on here that much but here it was before the crash: but sadly, my tank crashed when all my corals died after my tank got into the mid 90's during a freak heat wave here that lasted for a week and i was on vacation..well i finally got around to take some pics and here's my revived solana i decided to go with more sps this time around along with my lps and clams still FTS (9-2-09) 3 acros( far left is a green/blue acro, center-front is a purple acro with yellow polyps and right is a blue tort) my FS (orange FS wasn't happy) more FS (sorry its kind of blurry but i cant really reach down there to razor that off) more SPS pink birdsnest and crocea clam wall FS on left, xenia in the center, and torch behind it and last but not least..my maxima clam here's a video of my MP10 Link to comment

broutledge Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 thanks hey jason, great looking tank! i recently got myself a 34g solana and had a lighting question for you. ive been trying to figure out what is the largest/heaviest light fixture i can use on the edges of the tank. i see by the pictures and tank specs that your're running the outer orbit. Which size fixture is that? Have you had any or heard of any problems with weight? thanks jason, any help would be appreciated keep up the good work, brandon Link to comment
