Like the tank a lot, I don't see the corals i gave you tho! please tell me everything made it!!!

 

 

All doing well and in new pics. that frogspawn worked perfect to fill in the valley as i wanted.

 

thanks again and hope my old biocube works for you.Did you check it out in my sig to see how was when running?

 

 

i am wondering about how the chromis are doing too. =/

 

Started with 5 and still all doing well.Have not seen them pick on each other yet.They dont stay together as much as i was thinking would though.The color of them is what i really like about them. :}

 

Very Nice !

 

 

thanks alot :}

Thanks. Yeah i didnt know till saw a local with one and had to get one lol.I love the height of it.Its so nice to work in and makes feeding my lps a piece of cake.

check them both out.Wisconsin reef for most part is all milwaukee people.Feedbag has great prices on all the saltwater stuff compared to other stores down that way.Oh and the frag tanks have sweet lights over them.I try to buy from them now all the time.

whew...good to hear everything made it and is doin well. The biocube...well what can i say? My gf loves it! It's the perfect size for her room too. Just transfered everything from her 6.6 gallon sat and let everything settle...added a yellow clown goby and so far so good. It's really got her interest so hopefully that means more of a leash on saltwater stuff. btw your tank looks awesome you have a lot of nice variety of colors and everything fills in so nicely.

Im glad she likes it.It will be very easy for her to keep up with.Really couldnt have been any easier for me and got be hooked on this stuff.When she gets it all up and going should get some pics up on here.I wish i could get my other half into it more.I think she thinks im nuts for all the time and money i spend on this hobby..........lol maybe she is right though

Gorgeous tank! The aquascape is killer!

 

 

thanks. I love the scape except too many places for fish to hide lol.I woke up in morning today and took look at tank not to be able to find my wrasse or 4 chromis anywhere.I looked for like 5 min and couldnt see a sign of them.I was worried all day at work but when got home they were all swimming around :}

Wow, this is a great tank. It's great to see some great tanks in Wisconsin (not there anymore, but that's where I was born and raised).

Thanks.I have found alot of good locals to get nice frags from.Alot of my corals are from locals and not to much is from online vendors.Good old wisconsin lol

 

 

Looks awesome! I like the bulb combo you are using..what is it?

 

 

thanks alot.Im running a 4x39 tek fixture with the bulb combo as below.I stole the bulb combo from gobyinpeace.If have seen his pics that is really how bright the colors are as i have seen his tank in person.My pics suck big time and dont do justice lol.
