Arkayology Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 Nice bottlebrush. Hurrah for more acans! My turbo keeps knocking one of the bottlebrushes over and it is driving me crazy! Also, you can never have too many acans. My goal is to get the face of that large rock in the middle full of them. Link to comment
Markushka Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 cool macros and some pretty sweet acans... I'm wondering what kind of light they need, I got one in a trade and I have it getting direct light from my MH about midway down the tank... too much? Link to comment

I'm wondering what kind of light they need, I got one in a trade and I have it getting direct light from my MH about midway down the tank... too much? I am not sure about the light as I have only had mine for 2 days, but it should be ok there or lower. How do you have it placed in your tank so that it is midway down? I think it should be in the sand, but I could be wrong. Link to comment

Arkayology Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 Here is a large photo update for y'all. I have had some really nice growth with my Tubb's Blues and AOG zoas. All my SPS is showing some signs of growth as well. Nem shot Nem with clown Toadstool Acan Lordz Tubb's Blues, I easily have 30 heads now. SPS shot Clam Superman shroom with babeh Electric Blue Hermit (my fav hermit of course) Link to comment

Arkayology Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 Ya, I love my acans. I seem to get a new acan head off of the big one every week. Everything is healthy and growing. Link to comment
violinist Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Those zoas are out of control, too cool. When you fragging them? Link to comment
OClownsandNanos Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Sweet toadstool, love the acans and the hogfish. And really like your superman shrooms - someday I'm gonna pull the trigger on those bad boys. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Those zoas are out of control, too cool. When you fragging them? I may frag them in a month or so. Everyone in Santa Barbara has them so I have nobody to frag them for lol. I could frag you some Armor of Gods and Tubbs Blues soon if you are interested. They grow like crazy! Just let me know man. @ OClownsandNanos- The hogfish is easily my favorite fish in the tank. It is peaceful and all around awesome. I love those Superman shrooms too. I can't wait until they take over that rock as they are something I do not mind if they overrun everything lol. Thanks for the compliments Link to comment
LebaneseDlight Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Sweet toadstool, love the acans and the hogfish.

Damn, feed those acans LOL! They are about to grab me with their feeders Scared of the supermans though! I have a few that just "popped up" - I have 4 all around my tank. Damn spawning mushies?! I'm scared I'm going to have to pull a Calvin415 and break down my tank some day to get them outta there. Link to comment

latteslave Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Great update - love those Tubbs... Link to comment
Billdemart Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Great new pieces. I want Tubbs dangit. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Ok, so long story short... I am going back to Milwaukee for Spring Break. I missed my flight in LA and therefore have to detour to Atlanta and wait two hours and then fly to Chicago and get picked up at Midway instead of a direct flight to MKE. At least I get in-flight internet right? No updates for a week or so. Great new pieces. I want Tubbs dangit. Too bad I didn't know I was going to detour in Atlanta for a couple of hours. I could have brought you a frag lol. If anyone wants frags, we could work something out. I have a mini colony of Tubbs Blues here. More to come on this later. I'll post about it when I am making some frags Link to comment
violinist Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Good timing man. 25 dollar SPS frags at the best lfs in the area here till Sunday! Straight shot down 94 if you can get away. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Haha I wish. I wouldn't have anywhere to put some frags, even though I could drop 100 bucks there. Link to comment
violinist Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Haha I wish. I wouldn't have anywhere to put some frags, even though I could drop 100 bucks there. Spend 75, stash them in my tank, then use the other 25 to pay for the fedex back to your cali place. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 Spend 75, stash them in my tank, then use the other 25 to pay for the fedex back to your cali place. Hmm, I wish I had a car down in Chicago or a way to get around lol. But I will be getting there at 11pm and then leaving for Milwaukee right away. No dice However, I have some plans to go to a LFS outside of Santa Barbara when I get back to check out about getting some acans or more SPS. I am really wanting to get a piece of Echinata acro, a couple more acans, a couple more rics and and maybe.... a blasto or fungia and I am stocked to the brim. I also want a interesting invert. I am thinking a porcelain crab? Harlequins are maybes, but they really don't move a lot do they? Not active? I need ideas on how to complete this setup. Done with fish btw. Link to comment
violinist Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I've got two porcelains and a pom pom. You could just stick a 50 dollar bill in between some rocks and get the same level of enjoyment out of the situation. They never come out (mine don't at any rate). Harlequin's don't move much, no. Hit the tank with your flashlight after lights out and you might see it walking around looking for food, but that's really about it. I liked my peppermint shrimp, and I would see it fairly often. But he's been awol for about a week so I assume he became dinner. Feather duster/coco worms are cool looking I think. Link to comment

My cleaner may end up in the frying pan if he keeps messing with my nems. He was picking at the larger GBTA and caused it to spit out a piece of half-digested silverside. Though, it also could have been because I gave it a really large piece. Who knows? Feather duster is something I haven't though of before. Link to comment
lex0219 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Love that Acan pic! Very nice! Everything looks awesome! Have an updated FTS? Link to comment
