Lalani Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I love that red macro front and center. Looks awesome, buddeh! Link to comment
Needreefunds Posted January 17, 2009 Author 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? No ID on it yet Jamie. Lights out for tonight, but here is a shot from a few posts back Growing very well and must cut back often. Cuttings don't seem to fair well in other sumps tho. I'll try to get a better shot soon. Hairy, Hairy. Quite contrary. How your garden does grow! With green round bells And carpets there And Macros all in rows. So nice of you to stop by! Could not rhyme if I try Be that as it may Please stop again some other day i just spent sumin like 26$ on a 150 watt heater i think you got ripped off hey thanks! Yes, I know. BUT We all should try to support our ( GOOD ) LFS when we can IMO. For the few extra $$ all the advice and tips, and just hanging out talkin reef is worth it IMO. If not, away they shall go. Nice tank bro, Im gonna be setting up a 5.5 in the next few days...any suggestions? Cool ! Lighting seems to be an issue, not many options it seems. What are you thinking of keeping? I love that red macro front and center. Looks awesome, buddeh! Thanx buddeh! It does seem to be a nice focal point there. Did you get any of this in any of your Sealife tanks? Link to comment
Gerber77 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Im just gonna keep softies like zoas, palys, ricordea and xenia. I got a 20 watt 50/50 Coralife bulb that Im gonna start with before upgrading to something higher. I want to see how everything grows under that light before I do any major changes Link to comment

Well, Diane certainly showed us all what a 5.5 full of those ^^ can look like! Really the only things I would have done different in this one is the black sand ( impossible to keep clean) And perhaps a bit more flow. Maybe should have gone with a small power head and a HOB filter. But, where I am playing within the rules of the contest, you get to go all out! lol I'll be looking forward to seeing what you come up with buddy. Nah, I haven't gotten anything that nice yet, besides some nemostoma that died off a while after it appeared. meh, poppycock! you gots lots of cool hitchers and you know it! so.....no response to my " any of your Sealife tanks" remark?? slipped that past ya didn't I ?

BUT, I will be pestering you in a few weeks for sure. Then again, you may be outside removing siding-n-stuff to install those supports Oh, and feel free to send me any Tyree stuff and Purple Hornets that are in your way. Link to comment

You can stop by DTF (5 minutes away), my house and Jason all in one swoop I always have stuff that is in the way in the frag tank. For a while there it was hair algae - but running GFO against stopped that. Too many fish in the 110 system. Need to get those joists in and move those tangs to their new home! Link to comment
