Marteen Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Sounds like someone is going to put an order in at reefcleaners for every dwarf cerith they own. Quote Link to comment
calvin415 Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 and some tangs swimming the 12 foot length... Maybe... Just do what you want with the tank, you want more rock more rock it is, less rock, less rock it is. even though every in saltwater probably knows about you tank and loves it, its your tank, and i think you should do whatever you want with it. Looks awesome as always, and yes having the lights does make a huge difference. Thanks Boomboy, I guess I just need to focus on getting my pendant done... CUC will likely be in 2 weeks (doing a group buy with our club). I like the open rockwork a lot. It will be cool to see some branching and plating SPS take up the space. Thanks! I just hope I find the right pieces for the right places. i cant wait to see this in person on the 24th i guess that is the perks of living so close to alot of great folks with awesome tanks. Sounds like someone is going to put an order in at reefcleaners for every dwarf cerith they own. LOL! There will be about 100 snails added, along with a few other items. Quote Link to comment
seahorsejl Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I must say this is a spectacular tank... can't wait to see it in 6 months down the road teaming with life Quote Link to comment
lakshwadeep Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 If you're looking into getting some tropical CUC members from the Pacific (such as tropical turbos and other snails), you might want to try out this site. They don't have small packs for nano tanks, but they might be perfect for you. http://www.ipsf.com/ Quote Link to comment
HecticDialectics Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I like the minimal look... I think it'd look incredibly stupid packed with rock... cause it'd just be this big ass long tank fulla rock. imo that'd get incredibly boring by the time you're halfway down the tank. With minimal rock, you get a lot more impact. Quote Link to comment

calvin415 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 Here's some videos for everyone. I went a head and threw one of the retro kits on the end, just for grins. Of course it's no where near that blue, but I can't adjust the white balance on video mode. Hope you enjoy them. Quote Link to comment

Sergeant-G Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 WOW calvin the tank is lookin SWEET!!! Quote Link to comment
Marteen Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Wow looks very nice I love the aquascape. Looks awesome. I can see all kinds of feather dusters on those overhangs and softies around the bases of the rocks and SPS on top. Quote Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Awesome, sorry but no other word really fits. Simply awesome. Thank you so much for such a well documented build. Quote Link to comment
Boomboy Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 holy crap was it loud inside of your stand. i was going to say something earlier when you commented with NO PHOTOS, but you have them now, so i will let you off the hook. nice light Quote Link to comment
FLIPbmw Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Lovely rock work! I like the spacing between the rocks and you didn't overdo on the LR. I hope you look at adding some grassy macro algae to the sand. I got to limit myself from checking here too often. I need to be studying! lol I'll check back by the end of the semester, I hope you'll have it stocked by then!!! Good luck and hope everything goes well. Quote Link to comment
