hxcaquaman Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 So true...at least once a day he gets up on that rock and "cleans" the zoas...they don't like it, but as soon as he leaves they are back in seconds...he has made it a routine... same with my girlfriends cleaner, he even rips the food outta the platys when we spot feed them.... he's such a booger Link to comment
Sctn4Elk Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 VERY nice tank! Great pictures, too! Thanks.....pics could be better but I don't have a good SLR....so my Coolpix will have to do... same with my girlfriends cleaner, he even rips the food outta the platys when we spot feed them.... he's such a booger I spot feed my cleaner first with a few mysis and then feed the paly's....he doesn't steal from them....

Sctn4Elk Posted August 23, 2008 Author Share Posted August 23, 2008 The bigger this hitchhiker gets, the more it looks like a Torch to me....what do you think? It has two large heads in the middle, surrounded by 6 smaller heads.... Link to comment
maydodo Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Very nice tank, where do you get the IV tube and how much does it costs? Thanks Link to comment
Sctn4Elk Posted August 24, 2008 Author Share Posted August 24, 2008 I get everything local from Home Depot if I can...the HD is just a block away....I think the vinyl tubing was less than a dollar a foot... Link to comment

small alien Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Hmmmmm....I checked it and dang you must have some good eyes One side was at 6.5 the other at 6 so it was off by 1/4 inch....how did you see that???? Unless you are seeing the optical illusion of the pics being so close together? Third eye. Look at it with your stomach. Beautiful little tank. Good for you! -the small one Link to comment
Sctn4Elk Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 Haha....third eye.... anyway...thanks... Link to comment

Pickle010 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 WOW... Do you have plans to go bigger soon or are you going to be doing a lot of fragging as those corals grow out? Link to comment
Sctn4Elk Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 Actually, once the 55 frag tank has been stable for a few months I will transfer some of the corals out of this tank into that and also into my 120....keeping only small frags in my 5. Link to comment

Sctn4Elk Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 :bowdown: wow... all that in a 5 gallon pico... just awesome! Thanks...I like to push the limits and see where it takes me, as long as my tank inhabitants do not suffer...so far, all of the corals and fish are doing great...can't wait to begin fragging and stocking my other tanks....
