OClownsandNanos Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Just saw your thread - getting a 75g is a dream of mine and yours looks fabulous. The blue coral on the sand in the front - is that an anthelia? It looks really good. Love your rockscape and I'm acan crazy right now and think that acan piece you have is just glorious. Hope you get better soon too. Oh and your pets are so adorable! They must be a lot of work but they are cuties! Quote Link to comment

If thats it it's a pom pom xenia. Thanks on Liking my tank I love that acan also got so many new heads on it. Thanks on the pets their not alot of work just fun Ok the puppy is driving me nuts but she's a baby and doesn't know any better . Well I am off to the LFS to hopefully get a new fishy we'll see maybe a coral too who knows. Quote Link to comment
OClownsandNanos Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 (edited) Sorry I didn't clarify better - I was referring to the pic right above your FTS on post #67. That's a pom pom? Is it a blue pom pom? I've never seen one of those before, only the white ones. I think I might have to get one of those - is it invasive like other xenia? Or more of a slow grower in your experience? Sorry for all the questions but the coloring and form of that piece is just awesome and now I want one! (edited to add:) Did you take the pic under actinics only? Does it look blue-ish under full lighting too if you did? Oh and can't wait to see what you bring back!

I don't think it's like the other xenias I have it by itself on the sand so it doen't take over there are 3 stalks to that peice I started with 1 took about a year to turn into 3 I will try later to get a daylight picture and from the store I got 2 acan frags and ordered a kole tang will do pics of acans later also Quote Link to comment
OClownsandNanos Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 That'd be great if you could get a pic of the pom pom in full light. Thanks! And I love koles and acans, so can't wait to see what you've got. You seem to have a really good eye for corals. Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 A good eye for corals? Nah just a girl thing I guess. I will get pics after the family leaves. Coming over for dinner wee fun ! Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 The new additions the best I could get Hard to get the color right lighting tx5 3 blue plus, 1 aquablue , 1 procolor I think. I just ordered new bulbs yesterday so can't wait to see the colors then. Trying new combo's Quote Link to comment
OClownsandNanos Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Thank you for posting the pom pom pics! I really do like it. It's so bushy and full and the color's appealing, even with full lighting. That fact that it seems to grow more slowly for a xenia is a total plus in my book. I will be on a search soon, I think (well, maybe not that soon since I promised myself break from buying - but that'll be one of the next corals I get, I'm sure). I really like your new acans too, esp. the green one. Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Yeah the green is awesome it has a purple center. Thats as close as I can get on the pom pom . I keep it away from everything else don't want it to take over the tank. Quote Link to comment
rocketman Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 That pom pom looks awesome! Quote Link to comment

Militant Jurist Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Those are some very nice acans! Can't wait to see them grow into nice and big colonies (so that I can get a frags! ) Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 You'll have to come here and frag it I have no idea how to do them. Quote Link to comment
Militant Jurist Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 We'll have to ask Weetie. I've never fragged an acan either. Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 Thats sounds like a good plan Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 New Skimmer Vertex IN100 The Sump Best thing I did when building this stand was to put in a side door. All I have to do is move the light plugs slide out sump and whala easy skimmer set up. Plus the sump needs to be cleaned a bit Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) took a couple of quick pics Sorry if blurry the puppy was trying to get me sorry bout the flash on this one I changed the rockwork on the right made more swim throughs. Edited April 16, 2010 by wimby Quote Link to comment
Militant Jurist Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I like the changes! I'm a big fan of swim-through areas. Quote Link to comment
wimby Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 Thanks plus it helps with water flow LOL It looked like just a mound before. So since I am still home and the Yankee game was on played in the tank the other day. I had nothing else to do. Quote Link to comment
