Nanofreak79 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Yay, getting the kids involved. I love that my kids are getting more interested in this hobby. Very cool tank, tron! Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 Daaaayum! So clean! Thats the idea! Thanks Angel. Mia's one lucky girl She is, and Im one lucky daddy! i want one Thats what I said when I saw the sale go up... Luckily I have grandparents that want to spoil their granddaughter! Yay, getting the kids involved. I love that my kids are getting more interested in this hobby. Very cool tank, tron! Mia has always been involved, she loves watching me do the maintenance, she's always asking to feed the fish, help with the magnet cleaning, and now she will have her very own tank lol... to an extent. So looking forward to seeing how this thing will look in 6-12 months... Ideas on what it can hold? So far we have pre paid for a beautiful black/orange clown pair, and a cleaner.... Have some Dragon's Breath for the display... I have on my frag rack some Nuclear Greens, other than zoas, what other attractive softies can be in such small quarters? Link to comment
Nanofreak79 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Neon green nepthia. Great, bright, fluorescent green color. Some people hate mushies, but I find there are many beautiful varieties. Maybe a sun coral? Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 Never had any experience sun coral, and haven't owned a mushroom since my novice beginner years of reef keeping...LOL It is a lot smaller than I thought with the rubble i scaped out, maybe i can just turn it into a nice zoa pico...I have plenty i can move over that are just loose in my tank... Nuclear Greens Candy Apple Reds Oxides Tyree Space Monster God of War I just wonder how the LED light is... Zoas should be getting enough right? Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 Another look now that the water has settled https://flic.kr/p/mDeSca'> Link to comment
Cameron6796 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Jealous... Your daughter gets a tank before me Link to comment
jbb Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 NICE , another father / daughter tank. Emma and I are having a great time with hers, I hope yours goes just as well. Following along Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 She picked the clown pair Black percs. They'll be home once the tank cycles. Link to comment
Cameron6796 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 That so cute lol I want a tank Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 So I'm second guessing the pair of small clowns for this tank. They're still in holding at the store... Any feedback?? Link to comment
Cameron6796 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Kind big for this tank maybe one Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 UPDATE: So throughout the week, I got some brown algae blooming, so apparently a mini cycle has run its course, and I added a few snails and crabs to combat it and they won. This morning, I found pods on the glass! So to test out the light, I added one of my Nuclear Green frags since I have an abundance of them, we shall see how they react to the CAD LED. Link to comment
Spiderguardnano Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I'm really interested in how the lights are I want to do a 8g from cad light but was kind if sketched out of the lights Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 I'm really interested in how the lights are I want to do a 8g from cad light but was kind if sketched out of the lights So far the pallys have opened up nicely. Will keep an eye on them. Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Any updates on this thannnnng ? Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Ill add some pics tomorrow....tank settled nicely, added the first fish, and second coral! Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 oh snaps !!! what were both additions ? Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 oh snaps !!! what were both additions ? The tank was finally ready for the preorders at the store but since i wasn't quite comfortable with the pair of clowns my daughter wanted i discussed with the owner what my options were as far as single clowns, she said well, if you are up to the challenge, we do have a baby beat up clown who needs rescuing that i could try and recover to full health, and its actually perfect because this clown is literally tiny, but torn up, skinny, but so far has shown plenty of activity and life, and an appetite two days in the new glass....So things are looking up... as far as coral, two, three weeks ago i added a loose nuclear green frag i had in my larger tank, and picked up a zoa frag from the store as well, from what i can tell it has watermelon, radioactive dragon eyes, and one more i can't ID, looks similar...... similar.... to a king midas, with that very bright middle... but who knows... either way, the tank is starting to come alive... will keep an eye on the results of the new additions and will judge to see if i can add something along the likes of a ricordia or something!
