Woo! looks good.
I am currently setting up a 10 gallon frag tank laugh.gif
And I'm on the hunt for egg crate today!
I also need a koralia.
But then I'm good to go and just wait for the tank to cycle!
Yours is gonna be saweeet biggrin.gif
Lalani
Yay, can't wait to see your frag tank!

Cultured base rocks should be here tomorrow.... happydance.gif
lilredneckman
The rocks ever come?
Lalani
Yes indeedy! There is 25lbs. of cultured base rock from sealife in the tank right now, so it's looking more like the start of a reef tank and not a frag tank. I'm seeing an ammonia spike, so I'm going to leave all the rocks in here to cure before transferring some of the bigger pieces to the 20H. smile.gif

Lalani
Woohoo! Ammonia is now at 0! Dunno what Ite and Ate are....... need a new test kit but I probably won't use it again so no use really.. unsure.gif

The surface skimmer on the ac mini works great, the surface of the water is crystal clear and I've even got a little shimmer going on. I'm going to be propping mainly softies like zoas and mushrooms, but may get into some LPS also.

During this coming holiday break, I plan on transferring some of the base rocks to the 20H and rescaping that b!tch. Then I'll drop the frag rack into this tank and throw in the frags that are sitting in the 20. So there should be new pics this weekend some time.

Thanks for looking. smile.gif

tears01.gif So much pressure...
Nothing has really changed. The rocks are just sitting there... some green cyano... macro algaes popping up on the rocks... water is pretty clear... coralline is already growing...

Seriously, as soon as Turkey Day is over, there will be action, and pichers to prove it. tongue.gif

Lalani

I'll try to get my hands on some heat packs soon. How would you like to get those zoas... say, next week? If that's ok, I'll contact you this weekend and get the information from you.

Looking good. When I saw your avocado pics, I first thought they were green mangos! Now my mouth is watering...laugh.gif
Lalani
Your mouth is watering for mangoes or avocados? tongue.gif

both! You should try some green mango with salt or even a little red chili powder.
Lalani
Hmm, I might have to give that a try, thanks! biggrin.gif

Is all that lr rubble holding "crap" underneath it? I was wondering that because not a lot of flow would reach the middle, it seems like a lot would settle in there.

Considering the tank is only about a week or two old, there isn't much crud to speak of and I don't plan on there being much in the long run. Also, the rubble is going to be used to make frags, so it's not going to stay in there forever. wink.gif
