sanchez Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 So instead of using dead rock plus my live rock, I ordered a piece from http://aqua-tecture.com/ It's a ceram-eco artisan piece Holy moly this thing is nice. I would show the nice picture that they have up on the website, but it seems each piece is unique, so the one I got is no longer up on the site. It's part of the 'Cobble' series, so it looks like this one, but it's narrower and wider.. it's about 6" tall by 10" wide and has a slope to it. I'll take a picture of it out of the wrapper when I get home. Look at this packing job! It came sealed in this like expanding foam stuff.. really neat. Thanks Aqua-Tecture! Link to comment
cf21 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Need some updated pics bro! Let's see this bad boy. Link to comment
sanchez Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Lol, it's sitting under a sheet next to me right now. I'm going to be moving in May, so I figured it's better to set it up after the move and moving my 24 instead of moving a 40+20 system haha. Link to comment
sanchez Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 So I moved, and it's finally up and running! Don't mind the scape, this was shortly after the water cleared. I'll be setting up the scape this weekend Also there's no baffles in the sump yet because I have to get some glass and whatnots! Also ball valve on return will be added shortly. I took time out of the move to drill/setup this tank so it was done in kind of a hurry haha. Link to comment
sanchez Posted May 3, 2012 Author Share Posted May 3, 2012 More pictures! New and improved, still semi-non-permanant scape. Not sure if I like it at all really haha. Also, when I moved I couldn't find the tiger pistol, so now the YWG is living solo and he/she seems kinda depressed. I put a length of PVC in the tank for him/her to live in, but the brittle quickly took up residence. Should I get another pistol or just let the YWG do it's thing? Link to comment
sanchez Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 Finally the sand has settled! Link to comment

sanchez Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 Why would they crash my tank, they've been in there almost three years haha. Link to comment
sanchez Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Got a new invert! This is Mike, with his little brother/sister Ike Either mike is just gigantic, or ike is a teeny baby. For scale, Mike's longest antennae are probably 6" long. He's pretty big. Also a quick video of the tank! Link to comment
sanchez Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Picture dump time! Dunno why the color was so off on the last one, damn cell phone camera with it's auto white balance! Oh, and some clapping xenias: [video type=youtube]J27JAFcrHuE Link to comment

Singlefin Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 That's great. How old is it? Just wondering how long it will take mine to get that size. Thanks. Link to comment
sanchez Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 I circled the original frag for ya, it's grown over about 9 months. And here's the green acro, Sept 19th 2011: Link to comment
Singlefin Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Right on. I have two about the size and same color of your original. I also have a grape and one frag that has a red and purple attached together. Right on. I have two about the size and same color of your original.

sanchez Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 Awesome, I have a small purple frag behind the orange one and I'm hoping they combine at some point. Link to comment
Singlefin Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 The guy I got them from put two on the same frag plug. I've seen a couple grown out like that. It looks pretty neat. Link to comment
