jgpico Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Hahaha my fiancé used to get so angry cause I'd be lookin up stuff on my phone all day. Now that she has an interest in the hobby she spends as much time if not more lookin up stuff on my phone. Lol Those green zoos are awesome. Love the mushies too. It's awesome when your fiance is in to the same hobby. I worked at the lfs for a while when we first dated and the owner of the atore offered her a job there as well. She really got into it and now she is helping me plan our new 120 gallon. This tank is pretty much hers so all the mushrooms are hers, she had a 2.5 with nothing but mushies in it. Link to comment
ApiratenamedJohn Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I like mushies and zoas. I'm too scared to go to any hard corals yet, especially after my gorgonian disaster. Luckily my fiancé likes the same things so it's not hard deciding what frags to get lol Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 Got bored while doing a water change so I took some top down pictures. Hope you enjoy them. My phone almost went swimming a couple times. Link to comment
iball1804 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Nice! I hate taking top shots. I have this deep fear I'll drop my camera Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Nice! I hate taking top shots. I have this deep fear I'll drop my camera Yeah its nerve racking! I almost dropped my phone in the tank at least twice. Link to comment
Deputy_Pooh Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 what kind of light is that Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Rapid led par 38. It's the one before they started to put all the cool whites and blues and stuff. I had it over my 3 gallon and then I got a new bulb for that and transferred it to this tank. Works like a champ. Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 What do you guys think....should I get the bc14 retro fit kit from rapid led or should I leave it topless and maybe put another par bulb. I just think I might need more light. Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Im taking a trip to the lfs tonight to see what I can throw in this tank. I would really like to get another fish but what kind should I try to get? We usually have a very good selection of fish to choose from at the lfs I work at so lets hear some ideas from you guys.

jgpico Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 I got one of the new thrive aquatics frag trees to use in this tank. The little frag rack I made isnt cutting it anymore. The frag tree is awesome! If you havent seen it yet you should definitely check it out. Ill try to post some pics later tonight when I get home and get it set up. I am also taking the huge welso out of this tank because it is taking up way too much room and I would like to get a pistol goby pair. Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 I said I'd post pics of the thrive frag tree so here they are. I don't even think anyone looks at this thread so more for my viewing pleasure lol. Link to comment
Squared Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 how much was that thing? Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 how much was that thing? $20.00 well worth it in my oppinion. Link to comment
Squared Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 decent price, be cool to have one but i have no frags :/ Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 decent price, be cool to have one but i have no frags :/ make some frags. I think its fun to frag and watch them grow out. That way you have some frags to trade or sell if you want to. Link to comment

jgpico Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 That tree is bad ass! Looking great mr j dope! Thanks sharkman. Now that I have ran out of room in the 3 I have began to focus on the 14. kinda boring right now. The frag tree is the most exciting part Link to comment
jgpico Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 I love it! love what? The tree or the tank? are you just saying that you love these things or do you actually love them? I love lamp! Link to comment
surgicalsense Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Me like. ... is that a blue tip frogspawn or is the lights creating that color change? Pretty either way. The frag rack reminds me of a spiral stair case. ... your clowns are they Perc? They look the same as mine Link to comment
metrokat Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 i like that frag tree!!! link ? Link to comment

I think the other was bullied by this one and was never let in the nem. In my experiences clowns live a little longer/happier with a nem. other people say different but this is just personal experience. Link to comment

NickCage Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Very Nice Tank! I have the cube 14, with ecoxotic stunners, the magenta and the 8k white royal blue, and I love the look of my tank. I have a pair of true percs and a bicolor psuedochromis that thinks he is a clownfish, and a green clown goby. A few mushrooms and a frogspawn. I just added a few acans i got as frags from a friend. Ill post pics as soon as I figure this out. I really like your look tho, inspires me to rearrange a bit. Peace. Link to comment
