Plainrt's Project TONS of Fun....150 cube. New vid page 3 10-20-13

[plainrt]

Well i moved all livestock to the cube the other day.Still little cloudy.Some corals not looking best cause stopped dosing at end with old tank and let things go a bit.Should come around again though soon.This damn radium better burn in nicer then it is or these things over rated also lol.I have maybe 50 hours of burn in on it and say need 100-200.Time will tell i guess.I plan to add a rock scape to center that i have pictured in my head.

Could we get some better pics of the livestock?

[plainrt]

[Reef Fever]

did you have to cycle the new tank before the swap?

[plainrt]

I used all same rock and new sand so figured would see little if any cycle.

[Reef Fever]

[1.0reef]

Very nice! I second MOAR PICS!

[ReviloM]

Nice. I didn't know that cubes came in that big.

[plainrt]

Ok 2 weeks old now and doing ok.Built the last piece of rock with some nice dry stuff from best fish.Im gonna stick in a 400 radium this coming week cause im not sure how feel about the 250 version.Also tank tends to be cloudy most of time from goby looking for food in new sand.

[Blubbernaut]

Beautiful! Is the B&W paired with the other clown?

[plainrt]

Yeah they are paired. Had them 5 years now. Thanks

[MGDMIRAGE]

Man I'm jealous. I want your tank lol.

[neuwave]

Your tank looking good. Good hammer is pretty sweet.

[plainrt]

Thanks guys.Ill sell you the tank.The new 400 radium has better color imo and im some what happy with lighting now.I got the hammer on trade for my ati dimmable.The guy is a dealer and he paid 160 for it so its a little pricey.Its sweet cause never saw a true orange hammer.Its not gold or brown.

[plainrt]

Had my LFS order me a fish and got him in tank.

[plainrt]

Been a bit since update.Tank will be like 2 months old in a week or so.All is going well.About a week or two ago i figured out a issue and had to add some water to lower my s.g from 1.035 or so..........I dont know how long was this way but i never could figure out why my cal was always so high lol.Now that all under control i can see things already growing faster.My orange hammer lost color and not usre if its lighting or the s.g issue i had.Hope it comes back around as rest of lps doing better then ever.

[Lalani]

Holy smokes, that orange hammer is beautiful. Is it still that color?

[plainrt]

No it lost color but i think its coming back.I think the s.g issue upset it or it maybe the lighting.The tank came from was under leds and i have a 400 radium.It was wicked for couple weeks then it lost it.My fingers are crossed that comes around other wise im gonna kick mysel in butt for not selling to someone for alot of cash..............

[Lawnman]

Wow! How did I miss this?
