Exquitas Posted May 26, 2014 Author Share Posted May 26, 2014 Wow that's great! What are your plans for stocking it? Euphyllia's, Zoa's, Acans and at least 1 Scoly ... Maybe something else ... I'll see that when cycling is done ... Fish: Maybe a Blenny or Sexy Shrimps? I'm not sure yet Link to comment

Exquitas Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 Look what I've found today Looks like an "Alien Explosion Zoa" http://www.coralpedia.com/index.php?module=Gallery2&g2_itemId=3685 Am i right? Too bad it's on the live rock located in my sump ... I'll frag it when it grows a little bigger and then transfer it to the display tank My cycle hits pretty hard right now ... Nitrite is going down slowly and Nitrate is building up (currently at 100ppm) ... I'll do a water change tomorrow Link to comment

Legendary Corals Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Can't wait to see this cycled in! That's crazy how you were able to sump it and still keep the water filled up to the edge to keep the "edge" look. Would love to see how you did it! Link to comment

That's crazy how you were able to sump it and still keep the water filled up to the edge to keep the "edge" look. Would love to see how you did it! Thank you! It took me 3 tries to get everything sealed and I took more than a Week to get the overflow how it is today. I'll post some pictures and a new FTS soon (I seriously let this thread die because nobody seems to have it noticed haha) Link to comment
