teamschreiba Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Yeah it does. I need a real sump before anything else. This fish tank sump was a good initial setup and very necessary at the time but it's getting so dam annoying with the carrying water levels and other plumbing issues that a real sump wouldn't have. Thanks for the info. Gave a lot to think about. Yeah no problem! Let me know if there's anything I can help you out with. Link to comment
teamschreiba Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Another new shot... Link to comment
pyronus Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Not sure how I have missed this tank. What a gorgeous set up you have, and of course all of your corals look phenominal. Excelent photography, I'm starting to get a handle on how to shoot my tank, but I can never quite capture how it really looks in person. Link to comment
SnakPak Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Everything's looking really good Schreiba! Watched that video on Advanced Aquarist too, really cool! Link to comment
teamschreiba Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 More! Last one! Not sure how I have missed this tank. What a gorgeous set up you have, and of course all of your corals look phenominal. Excelent photography, I'm starting to get a handle on how to shoot my tank, but I can never quite capture how it really looks in person. Thanks, I really appreciate it! You really need to utilize post processing to capture how the corals look in person. Concentrate on great composition, depth of field, proper focus when taking the actual picture and then tweak the white balance, exposure, etc. when post processing. Just don't go too crazy with the photoshop Everything's looking really good Schreiba! Watched that video on Advanced Aquarist too, really cool! Thanks Pak! I need to do another video soon, they just take a lot longer to put together than pictures. Link to comment

brad908 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Any estimated time when it will be fully set up? Gonna sell your mame? Link to comment
Kfmmartin19 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Hey Schreiba, sick tank. I saw that you have (or had at some point) a derasa clam. I have heard they are the easiest clam to care for so was thinking of getting one of them for my 30 gallon as a first ever clam. Just wondering how fast a 3" or so derasa would outgrow my tank and how hard they are to remove. Thanks. Link to comment
teamschreiba Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 Any estimated time when it will be fully set up? Gonna sell your mame? I really don't know, I haven't got an estimate from Miracles yet so. I started curing some dry rock though so hopefully once it comes it I can get going pretty quick As far as the MAME goes, I've already had one person PM me about it so you're second in line I'll give you the same warning though, it's pretty beat up as I posted a couple pages back about the hole in the first drain U-tube that I patched up. It also has some scratching from the pipe cleaner. I'll still sell it to someone because you could do some kind of DIY and repair and still use the rest of the MAME. And just because they're so hard to come by and I know a lot of people want them. Hey Schreiba, sick tank. I saw that you have (or had at some point) a derasa clam.

I didn't have mine long enough to know how fast it grows so I can't really give you any advice there. I would make sure you are dosing and have pretty strong lights and stable parameters and the clam should be okay. Mine died because of a salinity spike when I was on vacation for a week and I think this was in combination with the fact that I wasn't dosing at the time and my alk had gotten too low. Good luck!

And I don't know about that, there's a lot of gorgeous tanks here on N-R. Really good looking stuff there man. That's a pretty nice SPS garden on the sand on the right side. Thanks pyronus! And yeah I've got a pretty good collection going and am pretty much out of room It'll be nice to be able to mount a lot of them in the new tank and not just have them in the sand. Link to comment
