I dont know if JMT reads this thread, but anyone know what kind of light he has on his?? Oh yea, dont forget to post specs when those pics come up! tam Link to comment
tam Posted May 24, 2004 Author Share Posted May 24, 2004 Updated photos. Rescaped the tank, but its not as nice as it used to be, but theres more room in the front the tank which I wanted. Front View Angled Front New JBJ powerhead Link to comment
crizq0 Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 great pictures so far everyone but lets see some more updated ones! I want to get more ideas so that i'll have an easier time when i set up my first tank in june. Most likely a 16g bow. Right now im just trying to get good deals on equipment. Link to comment
trmiv Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Here's an updated shot of my tank. Link to comment
Midnite Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Any other pics of a 16 bow? I hope to pick mine up this week. Still torn between the 10, 20H, and 16BF. Leaning toward the bow for looks though. Hoping to put 2x40 retro in the stock hood or a 2x36 bright kit retro. Though about the 2x40 orbit but it doesn't look like it seems to fit it cleanly. Link to comment
bowfront26 Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 hey guys... This is my tank after less than 2 months. Everything is looking good. I just love my BTA, probably as much as my clowns do. I need to get some more zoanthids. Yesterday I got some really nice blue mushrooms on a piece of rock covered in coraline algae. P.S. 26 gallon is a very nice size, big enough to do what you want yet still easy to manage. Link to comment

bowfront26 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Coralife 24" 130 PC works very nicely Link to comment
tam Posted July 3, 2004 Author Share Posted July 3, 2004 Just a bump and an update. Got a new zoo frag, green fringe. Also got a small bubble tip anemone for 5 bucks! The frag for the same price too. tam Link to comment
tam Posted July 5, 2004 Author Share Posted July 5, 2004 I'd go with the MH if you can afford it, I'm trying to save up for an IceCap 150/250. Might do the 250 because for some reason the ballast is cheaper? I do have to agree with you on the rockuascaping, looks great. Tam Link to comment
ghostbear29 Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 fantastic, I got a 16 AGA with brand new LR. you give me great inspiration for mine when the tank is finally calmed down. I'll get pics when i get the Cam back. Damn parents! Link to comment
ghostbear29 Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 hey guys, what the light situation so I can grow coral. yours is sooo cool. how much did you have to drop on it anyway. im stuck with a crappy 15w single stock light. help! Link to comment
tam Posted July 6, 2004 Author Share Posted July 6, 2004 Most people in your situation would opt for a PowerQuad 96 watt PC. If you can afford it go metal halide. I'm still trying to upgrade from my 2x36 watts to MH but funds are lacking. Link to comment
Withers Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 if you check the classified ads on this sight you may find some 70 watt MH retros. then you would have to either build a custom canopy, or have one built for you. probably about 200 bucks in the very least for that light set up.
