Needreefunds Posted October 18, 2008 Author Share Posted October 18, 2008 Gee thanks guys... This guy popped out while feeding the tank last night I cannot believe how much this one has grown. dassall..... Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 Some new additions here as well.... A gift from Rehype-----Thanks my friend! From the NJRC frag swap And these new additions have revitalized my efforts in trying to rid this tank if the evil GHA .....which naturally leads to a re-scape event and a soaked carpet / socks situation.... Perhaps a FTS tomorrow after the dust settles. Link to comment

Prolly the "Warm nutmeg" paint in this room still showing thru.. If I found NR way back then I would have painted the back first. Hmmmm, prolly would have drilled it too! Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 Still fighting some brown algae in here... Since the bubbletip has gone MIA ....the clown has been hanging out in the yellow paly patch Trying to come up with a way to build a couple levels of rock on the right side. I may build it out of dry base rock and cook it for a bit then add it later....too much lost real estate there. Link to comment

Has been missing for many weeks now..... Most of the corlz in here look very happy. Just wish I could get this brown algae under control. Gonna try a blenny and adding a few astrea snails.

skydive Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Very nice tank NRF! Love the aquascape, you wanna come fix my pile of rocks? Do you have more information on the overflow? I'm in need of a sump and can't figure out what's needed for this size tank. Also I might have missed it but what type of return pump do you have? Link to comment

Funny tho, I just got one from your thread! LOL Anyway....Thanks for the kind words..I consider myself a lousy 'scaper but again, Thanks As for the sump. I am running a Toms overflow / canister filter that I plumbed a ten gal slow flow fuge into. See the first page, post #5 for more info and pics. Link to comment

got2envy Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 dag! that is a whole lotta yellow polyps...do they sting other corals in the tank? i had to isolate mines they were getting a little crazy Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 dag! that is a whole lotta yellow polyps...do they sting other corals in the tank? i had to isolate mines they were getting a little crazy LOL, Thanks. I tried to give them plenty of room, but you know how that goes.... They have just started to grow into those pink zoos, and so far look to be growing amongst each other....I should know better in a few weeks. Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 OK, I just looked up from my laptop to see my Linear blenny flopping on the carpet. After gently picking him up and trying to re-introduce him into the tank, he did that dead fishy twist in the flow to the bottom... After panting for an hour or so, amazingly, color has returned, eye movement and has regained a more alert posture. I actually think he may survive and so I am once again on a mission to construct a net like cover for this tank. The many HOB items I have running has always presented a problem, as well as the bow front. Right now I would really like to find some type of plastic doweling, another thing that has derailed this project in the past. You know, like 1/4" or so, stiff, yet flexible so I can make a frame and still follow the bend. Any ideas here would be appreciated. TIA. --Richie Link to comment
