DCG1286 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Yes upgrade Might need some plumbing help. New to the sump thing. Not sure what size return pump I need. No I haven't been there not even sure what road it is on. The store on Deer Park Ave I want to go there but when I am in the area the're not open yet. On a 75G Tank ... I would go with a Mag Drive 7 ... around 700gph ... Although I switched over to Eheim pumps on my 120 and am really loving it ... I would recommend the 1260 or 1262 in that case. Lower electricity consumption and less heat ... etc.etc. Link to comment

wimby Posted October 26, 2009 Author Share Posted October 26, 2009 Well I had a couple of problems with my tank. Haven't been paying that much attention since my dad passed. I bleached out my torch and frogspawn and brains. Some are starting to show a little more color. Fingers crossed all turns around. Here are a couple of updated shots I have had alot of growth. Thanks for looking :0) Link to comment
Arkayology Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I was looking at all the great corals and then I started thinking "Where are all the fish?" Lol, they showed up later. Nice setup. Link to comment
oceanbreeze Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 thats one beautiful tank there those corals are brill well done Link to comment
ap123 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Kim! So glad you updated!! The tank looks fantastic, I love it. I'm sending good thoughts for the pieces that bleached, but I'm sure they'll come back. Those brains are amazing. Looking at the pics, anyone can see the care and patience you've brought to your tank. ~Anne Link to comment
wimby Posted October 26, 2009 Author Share Posted October 26, 2009 Yeah they are slowly coming back I put half the frogspawn in the 75 thought maybe diff light will help it out we'll see. i'll try to get better pics up later. Link to comment
got2envy Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Look great!! I bleached my torch and frogspawn before and they came back! I am sure yours will be fine Link to comment

ap123 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 That is SO cool! I love that you were able to catch pics. Sorry for the loss of your torch, mine died a little while back, I was really bummed. Question, does the tuxedo eat your coralline? ~Anne Link to comment
wimby Posted November 2, 2009 Author Share Posted November 2, 2009 Cool! Any chance of offspring surviving? Osric No idea about that Yes he does eat the coraline. I have a lot so it's all good. I am glad I got pics of it happening. Was a good experience. Link to comment
Rehype Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Im very sorry to hear about your dad wimby But i just wanted to say your tank is very beautiful. And the urchin spawning is too cool. Very very very rare to see in captivity. Good Job. Link to comment
wimby Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 Thanks Rehype about my dad It was a real shocking day. Also thank you about my tanks. It was really cool to see the urchin doing that. It lasted for like an hour or more. The tank was super cloudy after that. Link to comment
