Bonsai Posted January 29, 2010 Author Share Posted January 29, 2010 A snapshot of my large "LA Lakers" Zoanthids. ... which I fragged up tonight. Here is one of the frags from the mother colony. Link to comment
acropora1981 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 This is probably the slickest, and sickest, little frag tank I've ever seen. Verrrry nice. When I have the cash I want to do 4 x four foot acrylic tanks like this, only shallower, all on a racking system with HOLEDs... Link to comment

The limiting size factor for this tank was the closet that houses it. But for now, it works well. Link to comment
Lawnman Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 What kind of media are you running in your sump? Link to comment
Bonsai Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 What kind of media are you running in your sump? For filter media, I had a filter sock, but I took it off ... right now, I just use the stock sponge that came with the eShopps sump. I also run chemical media down there ... just a bag of Chemi-Pure ... and biological filtration via Live Rock, of course. Link to comment
Bonsai Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 Slow night around the house tonight -- so I grabbed a few updated shots from the In-Closet Frag Tank. In the FTS, you'll see eggcrate on TOP of the tank. This is my work area when fragging Late January 2010 FTS: A closer look ... Blurry (sorry) photo of my Rastas: Link to comment

Weetabix7 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Never have I liked Fruit Loops more.... Link to comment
Bonsai Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 Never have I liked Fruit Loops more.... Likewise Fruit loops are incredibly difficult to frag, they grow so close together and the polyps are basically flat, instead of being more like a raised "ball" like other zoas. I ran my original frag through my ring saw to chop it in half. Once these grow out more, I'll do it again ... and again ... and again Link to comment
animalmaster6 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Definetly the best frag tank I've ever seen! For sure! I love those Fruit Loops so much!!! In fact, this frag tank has inspired me to most likely make a frag tank for the 125G Thanks for sharing Bonsai Link to comment
hlander Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Now, if I could only solve the crazy Cyano problem I'm having in my BC8 I feel you also. It is almost all the way gone in my solana but it is starting in my BC8 Link to comment
Bonsai Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 I feel you also. It is almost all the way gone in my solana but it is starting in my BC8 I'm tackling my BC8's cyano problem head-on: I changed the PC bulbs - I'm now using brand new Coralife 10K and Actinc bulbs I did a couple big water changes, siphoning out all the cyano I could I used a turkey baster to clean out the rear chambers completely I went 100% lights out last weekend My next step, if I see Cyano building up this week, is to treat with some chemicals. I had success before with them. Link to comment
StevieT Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Cyano sucks, good luck Frag tank looks really nice, love how clean it is Link to comment

Dmarmontello Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 So this is where all of my beautiful Zoas come from! Just wondering about how much this system cost you. Link to comment

Bonsai Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 My last batch of LA Lakers frags, mostly from people who people who have me "reserve" a frag and never actually follow through. A couple of the frags were from the last of the mother colony. LA Lakers! Link to comment
hlander Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 This frag tank is really cool! By far one of the best! Link to comment
