alcko Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 How are you liking the clear seams vs black? Link to comment
mpsti05 Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 Thanks. Nice for sure. myself shopping around for 30x16x13 aio starphire. 1/4" glass or have 2 ada style 10gal side by side one FW other SW. It is deffinitly the nicest tank ive owned. Ive been doing sw for the last 4 years with the biocube and before that was a 65g corner tank full of oscars and african cyclids i had for 6 years. 2 ada side by side would be pretty sweet. How are you liking the clear seams vs black? I like the clear seams much more cause visually i thought the black corners just didnt look right to me, So im glad i went clear. Link to comment

mpsti05 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 The watermelon zoas have freakin grown like crazy same with the xenia, The frogspawn started as one head and now has split into 2, The Duncan was 2 headed and now has 5. The gonipora hates leds and has shrank to almost nothing.. i dont know what to do with it, its my gf's favorite coral. Ive placed an order threw midwest coral farm for a midas blenny and once it arrives im going to grab a bunch of frags and boost the clean up crew with a more snails a few crabs and a star. Still love my gbta and watching the clown chill in it, The black clown goes no where near it though Link to comment
mpsti05 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Nice zoas!! Thanks, I'd like it to continue covering that whole rock. I need some more crazy colored ones... Link to comment

mpsti05 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 So clear! Looks great. Get rid of the Xenia before its too late!! You guys keep telling me it's the weeds of the reef tank. I think with the mp10 blowing at 100% it's pretty much stuck there so well see. I like the movement of it Link to comment

Outlets710 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Love your rock, colored up nicely, where did you get rock and what grade is your sand bed? definitely going with that. Link to comment
mpsti05 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Love your rock, colored up nicely, where did you get rock and what grade is your sand bed? definitely going with that. The rock is http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/store/produc...m-eco-rock.html and yea it colored up quite nicely. Sand I went with Carib-sea arag-alive reef grade sand about 35lbs of it. Link to comment
eddiecorrea Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Nice STi. Tank is sexy as hell. Link to comment
mpsti05 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Nice STi. Tank is sexy as hell. Dbl thanks! Heres a cpl fts and my Midas Blenny has been exploring some more. Had to entice him with food for the pic I need a better camera looks way better in person.. Damn canon point and shoot Link to comment

Sand I went with Carib-sea arag-alive reef grade sand about 35lbs of it. Lookn good Perfect thanks. Wow 35 lbs and I will go at least deep as you have it. My DT is actually 27x14 to where yours is what, 30x16? Guess I can add 35lbs to the check list. It's just scares the bjesus out of me ordereding rock since we don't really need that much. It's a hit or a miss. You got lucky, I could end up w all boulders and we have no where really to hide them, than what.ill still give them a call tomorrow though. Btw I love Xenia. Everyone says its a beginners coral and a weed but it's one of my favorites,hell I have a damn shrub of it now growing. I have always just isolated it on its own rock so that way it can't take over and it just gets thicker and prettier.. I haven't been receiving updates on your thread , it says I'm currently receiving email notifications under options before I send, something else I need to do, is the only way to do it is go to the main page and select subscribe under tool? I believe I just answeredmy own question. Link to comment

With the rocks you could also call bulkreefsupply and tell them the sizes you want and how many lbs. and yea my display area is 30x16, and with the subscription thing I just subscribe to the thread and choose no email notification and that works I think.
