d'Espresso Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 How's the gobies doing along with the dwarts Link to comment
Rehype Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 I thought it looked like a red macro of some sort but wasn't sure...just so colorful and the shape of the growth is perfect. I read back on your first page that you're using an Eheim 2213 with a mix of zeovit carbon, zeo rocks, and filter material that comes with the canister. Are you still running this mix? How often do you change the carbon/rocks? I'm looking at either one of the Eheim canisters or a Rena XP in the near future. Thanks adam Yep im still running that mix(zeovit carbon,Zeo Rocks,eheim substrate pro,100 micron filter pad, phosphate removal pad and another filter pad) I replace everything except the zeorocks once a month. Heres a quick pic of the setup Link to comment
Rehype Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 ugh this tank makes me sick! how do you keep it soo clean?!? i wish mine looked that good. lol great work man! Thanks alot gabe i clean the tank manually like once a month. Did you loose a couple red spots? Anyways looking great! -Dave Thanks Dave.Yep two of them jumped. It sucks because they were really healthy but since this tank is so shallow its kind of hard to avoid. How's the gobies doing along with the dwarts I actually lost the other minidart when i moved. Im not sure if im going to try again with them Link to comment
divecj5 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Thanks for the information...and the picture of the "mix" to top it off. Given I'm a visual learner, the picture explains what I'm sure would have been my next question . Link to comment
Guest TheBlueLorax Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 There many beautiful tanks on here but there are only a handful that make me soil my knickers this is one of them, very natural lookin Link to comment

Given I'm a visual learner, the picture explains what I'm sure would have been my next question . Np bud. Im glad i could help clarify. I swear this mix will give you the some of the clearest water without the use of a skimmer... As well as undetectable nitrates. There many beautiful tanks on here but there are only a handful that make me soil my knickers this is one of them, very natural lookin Thanks so much lorax its much appreciated. Ok thanks..I was wondering if I should move mine, but I guess not I tried going a little bit higher but at that point i start having issues with the sand being blown around. Its an issue mainly because the tank is so shallow. Link to comment

UncleJT Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 You know you are dealing with a professional when the light fixture has a bigger footprint than the tank, epics. Link to comment
Fishdizzle Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Did you make the stand holding the light or did you buy it? I need to find a way to hang my lights. I like yours compared to the bent piping. Link to comment
TighTT Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Did you make the stand holding the light or did you buy it? I need to find a way to hang my lights. I like yours compared to the bent piping. It looks like the light tree available from the cadlights artisan tank. I run them on my system 70... By the way Rehype....you've inspired me to try my hand at an ADA 60-f. It will share some similarities with your but hopefully also have some differences as well. Hope it turns out half as nice as yours! Props for such a tight tank/setup. Link to comment
divecj5 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Super sleek and sexy setup man!!! Both you and TighTT have setups that are more than inspirational. Link to comment
