i ripped out all the cloves except the blue cloves as they spread way to fast and they bother zoas and palys alot.I would never add them again to a tank.Another leason learned.

Your tank is more beautiful now and i hadn't seen it in a long while. those acans are HUGE and looking so good and fat.
You definately have the best looking tank and full of so much color.
awesome

redkneecoral
I know what you mean, tanks always looks better in person, unless you have a darn good camera

Tank has crashed and was taken down and parted and whats left is now in a hqi biocube.Hopefully i can find it in me to build up my stock again one day but right now hurts to bad to even think about tanks :{


thanks people for watching this build.I had my fun with it but was time to move on after the crash.

I have a good idea but would rather not point fingers at dirty fingers lol...............It wasnt a complete loss yet.There is a death toll but hopefully levels out soon and things stop rotting away.Oh and no fish deaths other then my potters which i think hard a heart attack in transfer while in bin.When things get stable i will start a build thread for the hqi biocube setup that i can hopefully make as nice as my old tanks.......

yep went to a new hqi 29 gal biocube for now.Hopefully have some decent corals left when all said and done.Im just gonna start collecting parts now for a big build this winter................... wink.gif

Well at least you are still in the hobby and we can ooo and awww over the next tank. I know it will be bigger and better than your last. (even though that's hard to beat)

Goodluck

still gonna be around and dont plan on going anywhere.I dont think the cube will be able to live up to how well the breeder tank was.Next tank wont be nano though........On another note i dropped off the last of my corals in a locals tank today to give them a chance.They were just at war in the cube being so pissed off from the crash.New thread for the cube is coming soon...............
nanoreef11
Definitely post a link here so that I can follow it.

Sorry to hear that bro.

I will top this tank one day...........This winter will bring something much better and atleast 3 times the size.For now though i will have the biocube filling up with select corals.
redkneecoral
