Coming along nicely :bowdown:

 

Thanks Nashman. Just trying to keep the tank simple and clean looking. My girlfriend annoyed the hell out of the LFS until they got her a xmas tree worm rock. It's cool just wish the worms were bigger. Here's a picture of it. Now she wants the french tickler coral. Sounds kinky... We'll have to keep it in the other tank, worried about the seahorses.

 

And just cause check out how another LFS store stocks their display Nano 24. DuDu brown would love the GSP lol.

I'm a electrician not a carpenter so I ordered the stand. The guy makes them for the LFS as a side job. He does good work though.

 

Check out this pair of Platnum false percs. They want $700 for the pair. Wayyyy to much. I did grab a naked false prec $40 for my 55 though. I don't really like they way they look but you can't beat the novilty.

My girlfriend and I have three tanks together. All the tanks have been different themed tanks at one point. The 55 used to be a ell tank then reef now fish only. The nano 24 was a reef tank and is now the seahorse tank. The 12 was a jellyfish, octopus then seahorse and now reef. Wow this is a addicting sick hobby. Here are some updated pics of all the tanks.

any new updated pics?

 

Yeah things changed in my 55gallon pretty quicky after adding a naked clown. Soon after all my fish got ich. I set up a quarantine tank but withen a month all had died. So I made a back wall and moved the seahorses into that tank. So far so good, hopefully I'llget one couple to breed. I've got one male and four females.My three year old clown moved into the 24 nano with the back wall. I setup the 12 nano as softy's/SPS tank but ended up finding two clowns I couldn't pass up. Most of my zoas died but after several RO/DI dips there coming back. One is a false perc with a ton of white and the other is a misbared perc. I love the perfect circles on both sides. I picked him up at reefapaluza. I get more pics soon but for now here are the clowns. Here's a link to his sight. Really nice guy.

Here are the up to date pics of me and my girlfriends three tanks. We built a rock wall for the 55 gallon the same way as the 24 nano. I have a spawning pair of false percs in the 24 and the 12 is a mixed reef.

Down to four seahorses. We lost our favorite female due to aptasia burns. With how much we feed it's so hard to get rid of them all. So far 10 months and have four out of six. In our defense one was sick when we got it.

Some updated pictures to show how the tank has matured. I'm really happy with the toad stool growth. This is the only tank running now. I couldn't keep up three tanks.

here are some FTS of my 55 over the past two years. Most of the corals have switched between my nanos and the 55. This is our only tank running now.
