Tigahboy Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 Thanks! I scrape my walls with a kent pro scraper almost daily. Just a few minutes a day keeps the worst of it off the walls. Quote Link to comment
imcosmokramer Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 +1 great looking tank Quote Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Beautiful Tigah! I think we can consider you "back in" now. Certainly didn't lose your touch. Quote Link to comment
mtnxbiker Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Awesome tank! I am in the process of designing my new tank at the moment, 37" by 15" by 15". I was thinking about getting the Vortech MP10 and mounting it at one end but after seeing that you have the MP40, I am thinking maybe it wont be enough flow? How far do you have yours dialed down?

Tigahboy Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) +1 great looking tank Thank you! Beautiful Tigah! I think we can consider you "back in" now. Certainly didn't lose your touch. Thanks, NRF! Awesome tank!I am in the process of designing my new tank at the moment, 37" by 15" by 15". I was thinking about getting the Vortech MP10 and mounting it at one end but after seeing that you have the MP40, I am thinking maybe it wont be enough flow? How far do you have yours dialed down? I have it dialed down a lot right now, about 20%, b/c my acans were pissed and I wanted to keep the flow lower to reduce any possible stress. But I think it depends on what you want to keep. I had it up at 75-80% before and everything, except for my acans, were fine. I don't know much about the MP10, but why not spring for at least an MP20, especially since you will have a long tank like me. I intend to crank it back up soon.

Tigahboy Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 I'm going up to bay area tomorrow for a little trip, so this will be my last photos for awhile. Maxi mini group photo (I have 6 color variants now)! Another FTS... Happy Thanksgiving, reefers! And a full sized FTS. Quote Link to comment
Berkey Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 So I made it through the full 43 pages and just have to say that your setup is to die for. I am sorry about the problems you had with your Acans and such, but you really show what I believe most people strive to have in a tank. Clean simple impact is all I can think when I look at it. I can understand why you no longer watch as much telivision. Thanks for sharing your work with us. Quote Link to comment

Militant Jurist Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Those nems look cool! How much do they move around, compared to another nems? Quote Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 For the most part they don't move much. If they do, they don't get too far. Quote Link to comment
Militant Jurist Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Good to know! I've avoided nems because I've heard about their roamings around the tank, but I really like your mini-nems! Quote Link to comment
Paleoreef103 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Awesome tank Tigah. In one of the FT shots from the last page did I see another cap in there? I know the orange one... Quote Link to comment
mew Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 That cap is hot. I didn't realize it was so nodular. Are you still alive, Dennis? You never join chat now. Quote Link to comment
AdriftQuasar Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 WOW! I love seeing things come together as nicely as this tank is. Quote Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 Awesome tank Tigah. In one of the FT shots from the last page did I see another cap in there? I know the orange one... Yeah, that's a green cap. But I don't like it so much so it is in the back of my tank for now. That cap is hot. I didn't realize it was so nodular. Are you still alive, Dennis? You never join chat now. I've been SO SO busy these past few weeks. Been best man in 2 weddings, work got crazy busy, and other drama. But things are starting to settle back down again. Thankfully. Oh, and I got all my params in check now. I sold some acan since I want to be able to crank up my vortech (it's been on low for awhile now). I ended up deciding to keep just 4 of the nicer ones (though I initially was going to sell ALL). I moved them to an area with very little flow, and moved the dendro over. I'll post an updated FTS soon. Quote Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 (edited) Added some new equipment. Switched out my MJ1200 on my ATO with an aqualifter. I do feel safer now. Also added a ZooMed 501 turtle filter to run my chemipure. The chemipure fit perfectly. Thanks for the recommendation, mew! Edited December 11, 2009 by Tigahboy Quote Link to comment
