Wawawang Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 saw this tank in person recently. looks better in person even tho there pics make it look sick and new 57 gallon is amazing Thanks, I seem to always get the white balance off when taking pics of the tank. Damn LED's only lit tanks are tuff to take pictures of. Also a couple things I observed with this led setup: -no coraline algae grows at all, not on the glass, non on the false wall, non on the rocks. -nuisance algae is almost non existent -clean the glass almost once every 2 months, algae jsut doesnt grow on the glass for some reason -i tried growing sps frags but they brown and they dont grow -lps grows but its slow -coral colors are ok Link to comment
Giga Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I am setting up a small mantis tank myself-now I know what to design it after Link to comment
eddiecorrea Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I don't like the planted look. Just looks like weeds to me. I liked it in your earlier pictures with the Torch and GSP and such. Looked good then. Now it isn't my kind of tank. Link to comment

eddiecorrea Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 lol haha. I'm not bashing his tank. Its just not something I would have in my house or look at for more than a minute. I've never liked the look. I'd rather look at a bunch of coral and livestock. The custom pico is pretty sweet tho. Link to comment

This is my 2nd tank so I wanted something a little different. There is something about plants you don't get from corals. I am setting up a small mantis tank myself-now I know what to design it after Thanks man. Loving your mangrove build. I know you have a appreciation for planted tanks as well and it shows in your tank builds. Whats funny is I was kayaking on the James river and found an island where i pulled up and fished off of. It had tons of drift wood- roots on the beach that i took and im just too chicken to put it in any tank cause of the pollution in the james river. Link to comment

mx5apex Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 That is a really cool setup! Link to comment
Wawawang Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 Thanks guys. I changed the tank a bit. Wanted to share some new pics with you guys. Link to comment
animalmaster6 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Glad to see an update!! Still looks great Link to comment
Spencer7 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 i dont care what everyone else says ur tank looks great no matter what Aqua scape I love my Par 38's! Can't wait to see if Rapid LED makes a newer model sometime b/c the technology has changed so much, I'm hopefully about to set up a Eco Pico with a PAR 38 to go along with my big tank which has 3 and about to have 4, I find that setting up and planning tanks is just as much fun as keeping them maybe even more!

Zer0 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Thanks guys.I changed the tank a bit. Wanted to share some new pics with you guys. Hey dude, do you think you could do a quick write up on the equipment in this tank? Like, what filtration method you use, any dosing, what light do you use? Etc.. I would greatly appreciate it.
