ReefDreamz Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Looks pretty clean.... maybe think of moving those Zoas down a bit and getting some SPS in there... Link to comment
uxdesigner Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 Looks pretty clean.... maybe think of moving those Zoas down a bit and getting some SPS in there... Hey thanks and great suggestion. I have a large Green Monti frag I was given but it's pretty bleached. It's only been in the tank a couple days still not sure how it's going to do. Here's a closeup of it, it's supposed to be green but I'm still not sold. Zoa Rock Closeup Torch Coral Favia Link to comment
vegas chad Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Looks really good! I have a BC14 too and am starting to get the itch for something a little larger. Link to comment
uxdesigner Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Looks really good! I have a BC14 too and am starting to get the itch for something a little larger. I only had mine for 6 months although I wasn't looking to upgrade. I actually got the tank as a trade for design services plus cash but the guy was just looking for someone that would get good use out of it. Was like new and only used as freshwater. Im really liking these tanks. I called Pinky over at Red Sea and she helped get all new lights and the new skimmer, great customer service! Link to comment

monosyth Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Nice! Welcome to the club! Hopefully the monti will green up for you, does it slime when you touch it? Mine is great in my tank! Link to comment
uxdesigner Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 Nice! Welcome to the club! Hopefully the monti will green up for you, does it slime when you touch it? Mine is great in my tank! Thanks! The green monti does slime a little and it has begun to look greenish in the past few days. I think its going to make it. I'll check out your tank. Link to comment

monosyth Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 wow, really looking good. how's the green monti cap? Link to comment
uxdesigner Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 wow, really looking good. how's the green monti cap? Green Monticap Update (December 9, 2010) : Green Monti has also colored up really nicely. Not sure if it's due to the lower placement in the tank but either way it looks very healthy "still a little brown" compared to the almost skeleton white color it was when I got it. I may give it some more time in its current location since it does have a nice green color at night with only moonlights on. Thanks! Link to comment
