HighEndOfTheLow Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 this tank has been set up since October 2010. so its just over a year old. It was an upgrade from a 4'x18"x18". Link to comment
saltwatercoral Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 this tank has been set up since October 2010. so its just over a year old. It was an upgrade from a 4'x18"x18". Aha! So the 4x2x2 is 1yr old and the smaller tank contents were put into this bigger one. How ling did you have the 48x18x18 up and running for? Just trying to get am idea. Thanks Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Freaking beastmode of a tank Link to comment
HighEndOfTheLow Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Basically, all the SPS accept the Montipora Capricornis are new within the year. This was the first FTS's I have of this tank This is the 4'x18''x18'' it was up since.... late 2007/early 2008 ish As you can see, most of the stock was added since the upgrade. Link to comment
saltwatercoral Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 The new tank looks crazy awesome with all the new stock! The old looked good to but the new tank takes the cake!!! Link to comment
surgicalsense Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 That is really pretty and looks great. Link to comment
HighEndOfTheLow Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 We're still working on it... theres some bits still a work in progress... we want to redo the rockscape in the middle from where we removed the leather a few months back. We want to loose the frag rack at the back, find homes for the frags.... We want to set up a proper frag tank and QT setup for new coral. Theres loads we want to do its just time and money! We are just broke Students! Link to comment
Chaucer498 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 One of my favorite DT I have seen yet. Love the colors and arrangement. Sweet job, keep it up! Link to comment
matt frizz Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Incredible growth in only a year. You must have dropped a lot on coral last year because some of those just destroyed my life they're so amazing. Edit: seeing my signature makes me realize i havnt updated in a year :0 better get on that mines a lot different now too Link to comment
HighEndOfTheLow Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 thanks. hopefully after exams, I will get some more photos online. Last night the GHL triple doser was put online so we can undertake Balling on this tank. So far it seems to be working nicely Liz Link to comment
