Giga Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Not sure if anyone follows this thread but I still update it anyway My red Mangrove have stopped growing feeder roots and have started to grow the crawling red roots.Black and white effect but the red roots Another shot of roots if you look closely you can see a red root growing In full diatom bloom and some sort of nasty green stuff My Mangrove fern is finally taking off after completly dieing off and growing all new shoots Just a last shot of the Mangrove jungle Link to comment
sublunary Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Very cool tank. I had no idea mangrove roots looked so much like pine trees. Link to comment
R33 GTR Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 what livestock you will put there some archers will be cool Link to comment
Giga Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Pretty cool. Thank you! Very cool tank. I had no idea mangrove roots looked so much like pine trees. I grew them in mud for a few months,that's why they grew all those crazy feeder roots . what livestock you will put there some archers will be cool I'm pretty sure those are brakish fish and my tank is full salt, those would be cool though.still up in the air about livestock Link to comment
neuwave Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Lookin good. I'm stoked to see this tank develop. Cycle faster! Lol Link to comment
red206 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 now thats awesome. Cant wait till my mangroves grow that big. Tagging along Link to comment
lakshwadeep Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Very nice design! I've always had a dream of having a [raised] bonsai island, but I never thought about mangroves. If you go brackish, you might consider mudskippers. It would be cool to see them climbing the mangroves. Link to comment

If you go brackish, you might consider mudskippers. It would be cool to see them climbing the mangroves. I've thought about it but after looking at some cooled sticks I want those too. The way its set up now downturn leave any room for corals so I'm gonna change it up a bit-that is when I get enough drive to do it becuase its gonna be a lot of work. Gonna emigrant the 6" pvc pipe and make it all rock and no foam epoxy blend. Link to comment
