KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 not going to lie.... all 3 pics look the same Yeah you have to really look at the shadows it casts on the back to notice, my camera trys to make up for the colors automagically. Its very noticeable in person and will be when I get stuff in that tank. Link to comment
Prowland Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 That came off rude.... The tank is awsome and I can't wait to see how you fill it! Link to comment
KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 no you're cool, i cant hardly tell the difference and i took the pics! Link to comment
KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 We now have moonlights setup. I think were pretty much ready to go until the move tomorrow morning. I might still shift a few things around in the tank but I am pretty pleased with what i have now. I am not setting up the ATO right away, I want to see how the water level fluxes before installing that. Chamber 1: In order of contact with water, filter floss, purigen, chemi clean, LR rubble Chamber 2: fuge with marine biosediment, mangroves, cheato Chamber 3: return with SCWD and protien skimmer/heater. Hopefully the way I have it setup the water will move first thru the remora before being returned. All my fish are eyeing the tank sitting on the floor with great intrigue... or maybe they are just doing the usual fish thing, hard to say Link to comment

travisurfer Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 travisurfer lets go steal the cooler! I'm game. We'll split the corals. You can take the cherub for your 29. I'll take her clown. It looks like she had some nice rock too. I guess we can split that as well. Any other scraps we can leave on the carpet. I've ordered a chopper to come drop us off there at 10:55. That gives 5 minutes to get in and get out. Heck, why don't we just take the tank too. Link to comment
Prowland Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 we should... i mean she wont have any coral left Link to comment

KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 we have water, i've decided to run skimmerless hey i've been busy putting in LR and paying with it all to get it just right.... i'll post a pic, one sec First Chamber: Cooler of Livestock: The disaster of my apt: And shes alive: Link to comment
travisurfer Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 wooo! nice tank kmitch. looks like its a bit off level though i can't believe you chickened out prowland Link to comment
KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Everythings been going for awhile now, coral and fish are all back in: Yeah it is just a hair off level, thats because the stand was moved a hair and is on carpet. As the carpet settles it will level back off, not a problem. KM Link to comment
Argent Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Look good - but need more boobs HAHAHAHAHA Nice tank Kris - you're making the rest of us jealous. Wish my tanks were as cool as yours. Link to comment
KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Look good - but need more boobs HAHAHAHAHA There you go On a serious note, I am pretty displeased about the output of the pump actually. Theres definately wave motion, but not like i was hoping. I either need a bigger pump or throw a MJ into the tank with a hydro... Link to comment
KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Well... bad news. The tank runs really hot right now. The MH needs some fans blowing accross it. My temps jumped to almost 83 before I pulled the plug. Going to try and get some fans now. Also looks like my clown got injuried during the move, not sure how, but hes swimming fine. Just shows two marks on his back. Hopefully Moe will pull through for me. Link to comment
KMitch Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Just got a fan to try and work on this heat issue--- also going to work on increasing the flow somehow. Pics will be up soon. Link to comment
Maco Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Nice tank were did you get. Do you have a link thanks . God your tank makes me want to throw my tank out the window and steal yours -Mac Link to comment
KMitch Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 Tank now: Fans I mounted to try and control the temps, I think I am going to need another because its still running hot. Another FTS: Moe's Injuries. You can see the two white patches back by his tail. Hes out and fairly active so I am hoping he pulls through this. Hes been with me from the start! Another FTS: Today has definately had some downs to it. My angel fish died. No visible reason why, salinity was a little high (1.029 which I dropped down slowly to 1.025) but I think the stress of the move got him. Bummer. Also havent seen the red head pseudochromis and yellow watchman in awhile. All my inverts are FINE which is bizzar that something is bothering the fish but not the inverts. All other water params check out. I havent found bodies and they are both small fish, so I am hoping were just hiding bc of stress. Gotta work on that heat issue tomorrow. Until then, enjoy!
