Cesar Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Damn bro you are coming around very good. You keep it at this rate your going to win the contest with all those cool corals. Very cool dude. Thumbs up! Link to comment
Asin Posted October 20, 2006 Author Share Posted October 20, 2006 Thanks bro. I'm kind of following yours and Tigah's lead. Hopefully my tank will live up to the standards that Tigah and yourself set. BTW, how's your tank doing? Any extra frags laying around you don't need?? Link to comment
Asin Posted October 20, 2006 Author Share Posted October 20, 2006 EQUIPMENT UPDATE: I will be replacing my Power Sweep 212 with the following: -Maxi-Jet 600 (160 GPH) -Hydor FLO -Asin Link to comment
Truck_Under_Water Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 The power sweep gimmick is nice, if you like to clean it all the time lol. Is that why you switched to a FLO? Link to comment
Asin Posted October 20, 2006 Author Share Posted October 20, 2006 No, actually I've had it for quite some time now. It never gave me any problems until now. I never cleaned it either. Its actually the third PS I've owned and never had any issues with them. But, in this small of a tank, they do tend to run a bit warm, so I decided instead of getting another one, I would just switch to a MJ600 and cut down on heat issues. The H-FLO will replace the "wave action" that the PS does. -Asin Link to comment

Asin Posted October 21, 2006 Author Share Posted October 21, 2006 Don't be so modest, bro. Your 20G was awesome. I have yet to see that 40 of yours though, what's up with that? Link to comment
Asin Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 UPDATE: Added a few lbs. of rock and re-scaped. Also added a frag and a baby six line wrasse.

Asin Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 Thanks, he's pretty cool. Tiny, about 1" or less and getting along pretty well with my baby tomato clown. Link to comment

Truck_Under_Water Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Lots of nice frags. Link to comment
Asin Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 The tank was just fine, Roxy. I just cleaned it a bit, no biggie. Thanks for the compliment, Truck! Link to comment
Asin Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 I'm trying to figure out what the best place to put the MJ600 w/Hydor FLO in the tank would be. As you can see in the pictures, the AC50 is on the right and does a pretty good job on that side. Does anybody have a similar set-up on their 10 gallon? Where do you have the MJ600 w/Hydor pointing? TIA -Asin Link to comment
bucknellreefer Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Looking great! In my 10 I have my powerhead (MJ600) aimed across the return of the powerfilter (ac110). I like how this disperses the flow around the tank a little better and i would think that the Hydor-flo would make that work even better. Link to comment
Asin Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Thanks, Buck! For the compliment on the tank and the suggestion on the MJ. I think that's what I will do. -Asin Link to comment
Asin Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 UPDATE: Added the following frag: (From Pacific Reef in Torrance) October FTS has been added to first post. But, I posted it here aswell. FTS: -Asin Link to comment
Cesar Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Man you must have some serious funds for this project dude. Real cool. I need to go to that Torrance place. Link to comment
bucknellreefer Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Those great corals are going to look even better once they are mounted to the rock structure, I can't wait to see how you arrange them. Link to comment
Asin Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 Thanks guys. I've got a pretty good budget. I sold my 20 gallon setup with stand and canopy last week, so that gave me extra funds! Buck, I trying to figure out where to mount the frags aswell. I'm having a tough time doing it right now, I'm using super glue, but it dries so fast once you place it in water. I'm trying to figure out the best way to do it without having to remove the LR from the display. You got any ideas or suggestions? Cesar, I've got about 10 more frags kickin' it in my qt tank, so there's more to come! -Asin Link to comment
lgreen Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Wowzies. Looking good Asin. That tomato must be tiny! Sweet. Link to comment
Asin Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks, lgreen. Yeah, the Tomato is less than 1 inch and the sixline is about 1 inch, they are getting along swell. -Asin Link to comment
