H20Bonsai Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 This is inspiring! My 24 gallon ap will be here tomorrow. Wow! I hope mine look like this one day. This is my first post here but have been reading for months. Not new to salt water but new to nano. This tank and site are amazing. Congrats to you! Link to comment
Renegade545 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Congrats and much deserved. This tank is such an inspiration to us all. In the full tank shot, where the Jawfish (it is a jawfish right?) is in his hole, What is that orange coral right above him? Link to comment
basser1 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Thanks for the comments everyone. Renegade545.... That is 2 colonies of dendros. The one on the right started out as 1 polyp. I kept feeding it regulaly and then it sprouted 11 new polyps all at about the same time! Link to comment
TJ_Burton Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Very nice tank! Love the coloration of all the livestock. The colors contrast well, and stand out in a very good way! Link to comment

HankB Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Good choice - gorgeous tank! What does the "ORA" mean in the names of so many of our corals? thanks, hank Link to comment
Pickle010 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Awesome tank - I love the variety and colors. I see something new in the pictures each time I look. Much deserved TOTM! Link to comment
basser1 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Good choice - gorgeous tank! What does the "ORA" mean in the names of so many of our corals? thanks, hank HankB...... ORA stands for Oceans Reef and Aquariums. They are a breeding farm for fish and corals and clams. They don't sell direct to the public, but through ORA dealers. I'm fortunate that my LFS has been an ORA dealer for a long time. That's how I got the Picasso Clowns. Here's a link to ORA: http://www.orafarm.com/corals.html Link to comment
BustytheSnowMaam Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 That's gorgeous, nice job. Love your jawfish and all the zoas. Link to comment
YeahitsK Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Congratulations, what a great looking reef. I can't believe that the photograph at 7 months is of the same tank- you made some good decisions between then and now. Link to comment
maydodo Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 How do you deal with red slime in your tank? I read that you had it before. Thanks Link to comment
Secondgen Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 You truly have a beautiful tank, one that would be a great model for anyone who want to start a saltwater reef. Well done. Link to comment

H20Bonsai Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 What is the coral on the left side of the tank (Green). It looks like it is on a magnet or growing from the glass and that it has nothing under it. Is that the case? I am lovin that look. Link to comment
