opy01 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Two things, first I find your aquascaping facinating and second your clown's name cracks me up. I would comment on how many shrooms you have but I find myself with about 10-12 lol. Very nice setup! Link to comment
spanko Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Everything is looking great! Very nice choices and arrangement. Am wondering if you have tried a black background, plastic stuff available at LFS. Seem it would really help to have the tank color stand out. Link to comment

I love tables and that green color is just gourgeous, send me a frag kthnxbye! Anyway the bulbs are a huge improvement and all of your zoas look awesome. can you believe that the Acro was only $10!!! and been keepin my param's in check real well, so the zoa's are lookin' amazing! Two things, first I find your aquascaping facinating and second your clown's name cracks me up. Very nice setup! Thanks a mucho! it was a tough decision to rescape, but the outcome was aweshome Everything is looking great! Very nice choices and arrangement. I'm wondering if you have tried a black background.... thank you. i take great pride in this tank, as its the only one that ive done correctly so far! its amazing what happens when you follow the rules... and yes, all of my previous reef tanks have had black BG's...i wanted this tank to be veiwable from both sides. (the tank is in a cut-out in the wall.) Im trying to find a suitable size cube tank atm. as soon as i find the right size at the right price, im upgrading to a cube....(i want a 14", all sides viewable cube.) thanks Link to comment
