TristanC Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 Thanks man!! I love the tank. Once I get my aquascape "fixed" and the tank gets stable again I will be placing a few larger orders for coral. Link to comment

Mstefa1 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Quick iPhone FTS Your don't think he will jump? Link to comment
TristanC Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 Your don't think he will jump? The tank is covered with the picO mesh lid when I'm not near the tank, I leave it off when I'm in the same room though. He's never even tried to jump, but I'm way too attached to risk it haha. Yeah!!! How much longer till ya got it? Aquacave is super awesome and already shipped the unit even though I just ordered it earlier today According to ups I will have it on the 17th Link to comment

TristanC Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 Awesome is it acropora time? I have a milli and a setosa in the tank right now, but I definitely plan on adding more sps. Link to comment

Hexadron Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Sweet! Nice pics. Looking good. Is that a coco worm? Are you feeding any sort of filter foods? Link to comment

TristanC Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Sweet! Nice pics. Looking good. Is that a coco worm? Are you feeding any sort of filter foods? Yeah it's a red coco worm, I've had it for a few months now. I don't feed it anything special, cyclops/mysis mixture that I make for the acans and scoly. Whoa! Talk about clear! Is there water in there?! Seriously I've never had a tank remain this crystal clear, ill get some better pics of it. Link to comment

Thelizardkin Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Lol. You need to add a torch for the nemo. Seconded a gold one would be cool Link to comment
TristanC Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Im actually thinking about adding one in the future, only problem is finding a good spot to place it. Link to comment
TristanC Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Alright guys, I got my rocks this morning and have spent the entire day cleaning them, then aquascaping. I was going to do the muriatic acid wash but in the end decided against it. I scrubbed the shit out of them, gave them a vinegar bath, then an ro bath, then a salt water bath, then another ro bath. Now i have them in the tank. I only removed two rocks from the display and added three, Im doubtful it will affect anything all that much. Here are some crappy pictures, i had to take them with only the whites on but even then you cant really see the detail in it. http://s1231.photobucket.com/user/tristanschlueter89/media/IMG_3304_zps6de2837c.jpg.html'> http://s1231.photobucket.com/user/tristanschlueter89/media/IMG_3305_zps0a921858.jpg.html'> http://s1231.photobucket.com/user/tristanschlueter89/media/IMG_3306_zps7ffc9802.jpg.html'> The structure has a ton of caves and trenches and the top half is perfect for sps placement. Since the rocks are so white pictures don't do it justice. I figure 2 months from now they will look like they have been there the whole time. Link to comment

The shimmer with the ai nano is pretty extreme haha. In pictures the color banding is more pronounced, but to the eye it is very nice. Link to comment
