akma Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 lol, yea it's cherry corals I believe he said shazaam acan. I used to have a full 120 sps, but got bored and went back to lps. Constant back and forth if I get bored of one and altely i've been loving sps again. lol Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 lololol dude I've never tried sps before in my life except when I use to work at the fish store back then.... I was thiinking of getting alittle sps for my new tank but then I've just ordered 16 frags that are all lps.. so now I won't have any room for sps LOL btw, you still have that 120?? I'd like to see a picture of that hahah Link to comment
akma Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 Just have to keep parameters stable. The key is stability. I need to get my doser up for this tank. Been just hand dosing. here's my 120. It was custom built rimless with starphire built by aquarium obsessed. I wish I never sold this system, but I didn't have the space and time then. This in the beginning. Can't seem to find pics of it a year later with sps grown out. Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 ahhh Nice. I see, yeah big tanks...not only do they costs a grip but you also tend to hold over stress overall when taking care of it. This is why people go nano. ahah Link to comment
akma Posted June 1, 2012 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 Just picked up an innovative marine 16 tank for my clownfish pairs. Split the middle with egg crate and netting. Going to use a HOB refuge for filtration: Link to comment
akma Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 Haven't updated in awhile. Started to mount corals and realized I ran out of glue before I could start with the acans. Need to mount them because I literally have almost no space on the sandbed anymore. I lost a few acans and sps during the first day of our 100 degree weather because our AC went down. First is an updated FTS: Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Sorry for the loss...anyhow, your tank is looking great!!! Link to comment
Lawnman Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 ahhh Nice. I see, yeah big tanks...not only do they costs a grip but you also tend to hold over stress overall when taking care of it. This is why people go nano. ahah Heard that I just went from a 75 to a 30 gallon rimless shallow. To much maintenace on the 75 for me to keep up with. Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Heard that I just went from a 75 to a 30 gallon rimless shallow. To much maintenace on the 75 for me to keep up with. True, true. Larger reefs costs quite the triple and quadriple as well... Link to comment
akma Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 But in a full decked out large sps reef it looks insane. Eventually when I buy my own place and I will go back up to a large reef. For now i'm happy with my nano's. Here's a few acans: CC shazaams: Gameover Acan: Ktar's Hypnosis Acan: And a sweet blasto CT halo: Link to comment
Lawnman Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Those Shazaams are awesome. Very nice tank Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Yeah, I agree. But then again, the pricing still is triple, quadruple and plus. Link to comment
akma Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 Took a few pics. Really started loving blasto's recently: Quick FTS. I actually started mounting corals. Will take another picture once i'm done with mounting. 2 new blasto's I picked up: And one of the sickest acans in my collection: Also, the newest addition to the fish family. My baby chevron tang~ Smallest guy in my tank. About the size of a quarter. In a few years he'll be bigger than all them put together. Link to comment
