NewZealandReefie Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 Chur spanky. I think it's pretty awesome. Color gets better by the day. Link to comment
metrokat Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Following! The MM looks beautiful and I'm new to Yumas as you just read on my thread, yours looks great, I had no idea Yumas would be as colorful as rics. Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 Thanks kat Yumas can come in rainbow colors as opposed to rics that I've only ever seen with a max of 2/3 colors on them. That little guy up the top of the page and the ones that came with it very very nearly didn't make it after getting stuck at the courier depot for an entire weekend and arriving freezing cold and shedding their flesh. Glad they're recovering. Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Ah #### I was meant to test the mag, cal and alk tonight. Meh, tomorrow... Link to comment

Genj Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I must have missed it, but why are you breaking this tank down? Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Break up IRL lol. Best stuff is being moved to a new custom tank, in members aquarium forum, called Obsidian. Link to comment
Genj Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Oh damn. Sorry to hear that. Beautiful tank, hoping to have mine looking as good in the future! Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Looks like the Leviathan is staying up for a while longer. May do a photo update in a bit, I don't currently have a DSLR but will be buying a new one this weekend Really not at all sad about this, I love this tank and am dreading the day I will have to divide it up in to 'new tank' and 'stuff that's being sold'. Facing a few setbacks with the new tank. Mostly due to being ####ing broke (broke and buying a new camera... shhhhh). Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 "Will be buying" look at my optimism. I didn't leave the house till 5pm on Sunday last weekend so did not in fact buy a new camera. On another note, I can now see in the sides of the tank again. Everything, surprisingly, looks great.

NewZealandReefie Posted June 5, 2012 Author Share Posted June 5, 2012 So a while back most of the sand was removed from The Leviathan. Only a few hard to reach spots remained and the plan was always to siphon those out too. Well, that didn't really happen when it was originally meant to and, well, then I sorta stopped doing water changes and now there's a new tank in the works to replace The Leviathan. Long story short, I took out most of the remaining sand tonight as the tank had reached a point where, well, I had to face that it needed a water change. Over the next few days I'll be changing about half the total volume of the tank in 2x 25g water changes. Keeping in mind this was once bright white marble sand, this is what I pulled out of the corners of the tank tonight. Enjoy the filthy horrendous awfulness of it: And no, just to be clear the tank has not crashed, it's absurdly stable and all livestock looks great. I'll post some pics at some point Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 Thunderstorm at 5am this morning caused power fluctuations and played havoc with the pumps. Water level was all kinds of weird this morning More water changes when I get home... yay for me. Link to comment
metrokat Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Hope the water level is all good now? Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 Yup, had sorted itself out by the time I got home and the water had cleared up nicely from my massive clean up. Starting the first of a series of water large water changes tonight. Fun. Get to spend ages shoulder deep in my tank lol. Link to comment
revaltion131 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 You know you love it really Until your back tells you it can't hold up being bent all the way over after 2 hours! Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 This isn't related to my tank as such, but because I find it funny I feel like sharing the 'Code of Conduct' of my favorite local forum: Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 Two weeks and it's bye bye Leviathan Link to comment
NewZealandReefie Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 Leviathan is being broken down and things are moving to a smaller tank. Little lady died last night. She was my smallest female bartlett and a couple of months ago got a cut on her stomach that never healed. RIP Little Lady Link to comment
Lalani Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 RIP What size will the new tank be? Link to comment
