(Okay maybe the black sand doesn;t show up much around florida rock but... ) You must need more coffee John, DT's thread is two doors down on the left.... Thanks tho buddy! I agree, the black sand was a poor choice for several reasons. Hey, Thanks for stopping in ! Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Thanks Tiny! Snail sechs?? here we see the cool blue macro, pink porites and one of the cave openings in the rock that a pistol has called home. Still hairy....but its really cool watching this tank.......pompom found a home in the back Your cool blue macro is one iridescent dictyota sp. (A definitive id would require a microscope, but you are in the dictyota bartayresii or close relative range) If you keep your tank wild like you have been, you will find it will one day be dominate, but then die back, and then grow back, etc.... Very seasonal based on high nutrients. A brown algae, it reflects blue under certain conditions. I love this thread by the way, I have been checking it out for awhile now. Link to comment

Thanks again for the kind words John! You wouldn't happen to have an ID for that other blue macro, the one with the more branch like appearance ? I hope to get some shots tomorrow, way overdue for an update here. your rocks look like mine.... you wish..... i have the same algae. I got some florida porties on the way for my biotope. Cool ! Pichers please! I'm surprised I was able to save the ones that I have in this tank. They have grown, slowly, but seem happy enough. Link to comment

Needreefunds Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 crap, whos biting who?? does mine(TANK) count if it existed in my mind at least a year ago? wut? my subcurrent is more used than yours! my nova too! you think the 20 gal rating is crap? i know it is... tried it 20 gal rating? If thats what the subcurrent is rated at I would call bs as well. Seems good for this tank tho, perhaps a 10...but only as a supplemental unit. edit-bad spellin'. Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 Plugging along here. Macros grow like crazy, constant trimming and such. Some go crazy, then die back and others take over and do the same. Perhaps not the most aesthetically pleasing display to most peeps, but I love watching this tank. How many macros can we count?? So I started with two mini nems. A few days ago the tiny one went walkabout, I have no idea where it is. Then, a couple days ago the remaining mini looked retracted, and unhappy tucked way under an overhang. I was bummin' to say the least.. But today...... The larger mini has split they are both visible here, not the best shots I know and had to use the flash on one angle due to its position way under there. Link to comment

Jamie Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Looks awesome on my computer! In fact, I've decided you will win. So I should probably stop trying. What is that algae (I think) front and center that looks kind of like a Kenya tree? Could we get a close-up? Link to comment
