Zo0k365 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 oooo you've make the look that so many people end up failing to do! Link to comment
c_k_kuehne Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Looking really sweet. A pico ledge -- I didn't really get that in the original picture but now it's all clear to me. Going to be an awesome pico. Sort of glad you switched tanks myself. Link to comment
reef2.5 Posted June 2, 2010 Author Share Posted June 2, 2010 Yup I'm pretty happy with the switch as well. The only thing that went wrong is the sand is just too fine and blows around so I'm going to switch that tonight after work. Can't wait for the dang cycle to finish just counting days until I can't add or change anything its gettin close Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 What are your stocking plans for this tank? Link to comment
mxpro32 Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 That tank achieves the perfect look. It looks so much bigger than 1.5 gallons. Did you end up cutting the rock with a saw like you planned? Link to comment
reef2.5 Posted June 3, 2010 Author Share Posted June 3, 2010 Stocking plans i really like a pompom crab ive never kept one before but from what ive been reading its pretty neat little guy that wont outgrow the tank. im also thinking maybe a green clown goby. as far as coral i really enjoy the GSP and i hope to find a nice plant for the shallow side to create the whole look, but as far as any other witch there will be just going to go shopping i guess. and yes i used the masonary saw blade and it worked great the whole back wall is only one peice im really happy with how it turned out. thanks for all the comments Link to comment

ParanoidObseshun Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I like how you setup your tank, Nicely Done! Things are looking good. Im not completely sure but I think your mystery coral might be a lobo perhaps? Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Looks like some kind of Brain to me. Link to comment
.Newman. Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 im gonna take a wild guess and say its a blasto lol. I have no clue what brain corals look like especially when theyre closed Link to comment
reef2.5 Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 So does anyone know if there's one product to feed every one in the tank Link to comment
reef2.5 Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 just wanted to share a couple of nice pics Link to comment
Solarflare8806 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 That tank is really awesome. Good luck!! Link to comment
c_k_kuehne Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Your tank is awesome (one of my favorites) but from the FTS's it is really hard to tell just how small it really is. "I" know how small it is because I have been following along since the beginning. But others might not realize just how small this is. Was wondering if you could take a pic of the tank from a few feet back with a lighter/shot glass/coffee cup etc... sitting in front of the tank so others might realize just how small of a tank you have.

reef2.5 Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 For sure will do. It might be a day or two but it will happen. So does that mean I have your vote haha Link to comment
c_k_kuehne Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 So does that mean I have your vote haha We have a long ways to go for that and a lot can happen between now and Jan 31st 2011 --- but I do like your tank Link to comment
.Newman. Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 same here, unless something really big happens, this tank has my vote at the moment Link to comment
