4x5 Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 We demand FTS! And what's the next coral? The LFSs are so bare right now, it's driving me insane. I'm looking for any coral recommendations if you have any, I might have to go ahead and just blindly order a few off the list. Which for me is a frightening prospect, I need to see what things look like, haha. i agree a FTS is much needed! Haha, soon. I was hoping to get one when Dwight was cruising around me. But I'll see what I can do 1 Quote Link to comment

Maybe just a little bit of table acropora and montipora, then splatter of some really nice light color zoathids on the rock towers. Keep the color light and airy! Quote Link to comment
SApicoreef Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Also South African... maybe think of a rose bubble tip anemone if you are getting clowns?? 1 Quote Link to comment

Well, I do love LPS, so i'll definitely get more... hopefully I can find some different colours though - I've been seeing mostly green lately. Also South African... maybe think of a rose bubble tip anemone if you are getting clowns?? I was thinking about getting a pair of clowns but I'm just not sure anymore. It seems like the obvious choice which makes me not want it, haha. 4 Quote Link to comment

I am also looking for a true yellow torch or hammer. They are pretty hard to find. You should get one too. It will look nice in your tank. 1 Quote Link to comment
Eisernes Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 My daughter has decided that the blenny's name is Dwight, named after our favourite character in The Office. Dwight is doing great, he's starting to swim around more and eating like a machine. False. A Midas Blennys name must be Buddy or King. Quote Link to comment
4x5 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Dwight's been out and about more, not quite as yellow as expected but we'll see if that changes over time. Either way, he's awesome. The tower that comes out the water is the only rock he hangs out on - he needs some tank mates. I am also looking for a true yellow torch or hammer. They are pretty hard to find. You should get one too. It will look nice in your tank. Hmmm yes. I'll see what I can find out as far as prices. The gold torch does look great. False. A Midas Blennys name must be Buddy or King. Hahaha. 9 Quote Link to comment
4x5 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Latest FTS; nothing much has changed other than the addition of the Hammer and Dwight. I really need to get some life on those rocks. 17 Quote Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Time and proper parameters! Lovely Midas! Quote Link to comment

Illuiix Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hmm get all sorts of hammers, torches, euphyllias, a garden of all colors of those would look crazy ahah. 1 Quote Link to comment

gqlmao Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 You make me want to throw away my bed and put a similar size tank like that in... and it still won't look as nice. I am regretting not getting a wider tank. Quote Link to comment
Cameron6796 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Sooooo elegant and gorgeous love the hammer, I agree with the above with lots of lps to get lots of movement in this tank, euphylia are some of my favourite corals. Maybe a few sps though Quote Link to comment
4x5 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 Great color and aqua scape. The sand bed waves also look cool. Thanks, it's quite interesting to see the sand bed take shape with the flow of the tank. Hmm get all sorts of hammers, torches, euphyllias, a garden of all colors of those would look crazy ahah. Yah, the more you've gone on about that damn gold torch the more I think I need one up front where the hammer is, haha. I hear that... I'm forced to be patient on my new tank.. Between waiting for things to arrive, the holidays, work, family.... ill be lucky to have time to do this thing by new years! It'll be over before you know it. Looking great Shaun. Keep up the great work. Thanks Kyle. Beautiful so far! Following! Btw what type of rock is that? Thanks. It's Marco rock, it's really great. LFS has corals coming in later this week. Looks awesome! Thanks man. You make me want to throw away my bed and put a similar size tank like that in... and it still won't look as nice. I am regretting not getting a wider tank. Your setup looks great, and there is always a next tank. Sooooo elegant and gorgeous love the hammer, I agree with the above with lots of lps to get lots of movement in this tank, euphylia are some of my favourite corals. Maybe a few sps though Thanks. Definitely getting more LPS and some SPS. 2 Quote Link to comment
