brad908 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 That's just hilarious. Thanks for showin me that lol. Your tank and there was an edge (not hype's) were the only good tanks. The rest were those ridiculous Tanked tanks or fishtank sink type stuff. Link to comment

hey Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 so I am due for an fts update and here she is sadly in july i had a 2 day power outtage while i was on vacation, temps showed in mid to upper 90's and i noticed my hammer coral dying in a section, the poci completely dead and macro algae growth like mad. To top it off all my fish showed signs of ich although ofc the tang had it the worst. He didn't make it but the clowns and chromis seemed to do fine and is the only time I have seen them let the cleaner shrimp near them. I added a sailfin blenny last month hes been doing fine and is pretty ammusing although pretty ugly. added a couple harlequin serpent stars that rarely make appearances, 5 emerald crabs because i got plenty of bubble algae for em, and a multicolored urchin that is quickly becoming my favorite invert in the tank. also i decided to run my water level a bit lower, i dunno i like it about an inch lower than where it was previously.

metrokat Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I see him - greyish mottled fella? Link to comment
hey Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 I see him - greyish mottled fella? yup almost changes colors he is pretty white on the sand bed. little chameleon. Nothing like white to green or anything just dark grays to white. a new tang will be back.... but i am still deciding on what to do about the obvious non symptomatic ich thats in the tank... 2 very different schools of though on what I should do here.

Rehype Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Well it still looks beautiful if you ask me Link to comment
Sk8n Reefer Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Sorry about the power outages but I agree with Rehype- still looks great. I like that angle for the FTS ? Link to comment
markalot Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Looks fantastic, sorry about the power outage and losses. That scape is so distinctive this tank always looks good. Link to comment
Nstocks Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Are those green plants (?) Kelp? Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Are those green plants (?) Kelp? Kelp is a coldwater seagrass. The stuff hey has is a species of Halimeda. Link to comment
Nstocks Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Kelp is a coldwater seagrass. The stuff hey has is a species of Halimeda. Just confirming what Live Aquaria state, though there are probably more types of kelp I've never seen any in the UK but they look really cool. http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/aquarium-fish-supplies.cfm?c=490 Link to comment
vlangel Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I think your tank is still unique and amazing. I stinks to lose animals though and I understand. I like the green from the algae but again I get that that is not the crisp tank look that you are probably going for. Link to comment
Giga Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 have to agree, still looks cool! Link to comment
