I've learned a lot the past couple of months from maintaining this tank and have come to a conclusion to have a more streamline and cleaner looking reef tank... as you can see, the tank is very busy on all the shots.. I've been slowly but surely letting go of many pieces that I couldn't let go before... I love the fact that the tank is only 32g so I keep myself in check all the time.. if I want something else, something has to give.. :)

 

this tank will remain zoas dominated w/ a few micros, lords, echinos, and other rarirites..

 

anyway, thanks for reading.. ;)

Wow I never knew your tank was only 30 gallons! I always envisioned it being larger. Very nice though!

 

 

If you want any suggestions.... open up that rockwork!

Very sweet. Been drooling over some of the shots of your micros and now zoas.

 

Mind posting some pics of those frag disc holders on the side?

yup.. I like the size and it's perfect for me right now... :)

 

I'm in the process of finishing up the rock work.. got some open spots still that I'm filling in so in a month or two, it should look alright to show again... it's cleaner looking and I opted for a two islands aquascaping.. :)

Thank you.. :)

 

I will get some pics up when I get the frag holders sorted out of what I intend to keep and grow there... I'm giving the 2 frag holders on the right so I'll be able to view both islands better...

 

I promise it'll be a cleaner looking tank...

I believe the frag shelves are just magnet cleaners with eggcrate glued to the inside piece (allowing them to be moveable AND clean the glass)

LoLz.. thanks Izzue.. unfortunately, I don't plan on fragging those guys for a while... I'm only giving some of my first frags to friends for back up... maybe in another couple of months, I'll have some to spare, if you're not in a hurry..

 

Thanks again.. :)
