aaron1987 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I think my favorite part of this is the contrast you've achieved with the overhangs casting shadows on the rocks and sand. Looks sharp! Are we to sit on pins and needles for your coral stocking plans or are you going to give us some hints? 4 Quote Link to comment
Chris L Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I love the Zeroedge's. just one thing id worry about is coraline algae on the outside of the tank? Do you think this would be a problem eventually? Quote Link to comment

Ive had one in the past never had that problem although regular algae on the glass can become an issue with excess nutrients.

TJ_Burton Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Dig'n itI am glad that you got a ZE. I have seen so many that were just completely lack-luster. If anyone is going to do a ZE aquarium justice, it's you, my friend. 1 Quote Link to comment

Funny you mention that - I was tempted to say it kind of has a pleasing spartan feel to it and part of me thinks you should just leave it as it is... but that would be sacrilege on this forum. Perhaps something that benefits from the top-down view.. clams, anemones. Quote Link to comment

Perhaps something that benefits from the top-down view.. clams, anemones. I totally agree with you.. i think the scape is strong enough but im sure i would start to miss corals eventually. Clams are a definite Quote Link to comment

Mr. Microscope Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Lovin' the new tank! What's the deal with that fiddler? Are they coral eaters? Very beautiful addition. I'm also liking your aggressive use of damsels in there. Very daring of you. Good luck! Quote Link to comment
Cameron6796 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I honestly think damsels are under rated, some have amazing colours, 2 Quote Link to comment

I knew it was a risk as they tend to be jerks..but theyre beautiful and add alot of activity to the tank. IME the only way for it to work long term is if they have tankmates who arent afraid of them or are too large to be concerned. I honestly think damsels are under rated, some have amazing colours, I totally agree however their behavior can be really tough to deal with especially the more aggressive species. 1 Quote Link to comment

But there are made for land dwelling so I really don't think there's a issue with that. 1 Quote Link to comment
