Kijho Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I'm thinking of getting one to take care of some aiptasia, perhaps eat some GHA since he's herbivore.. But I'm hoping he'd pair with my Orange spotted Goby? I've heard it's rare but possible... Just worried about them munching corals in the future as I've also read that can happen Link to comment

I think shrimp are better though. Link to comment

The price on the website is pretty high for corals... I did. Its got 3 heads. My LFS was chargeing 35$ a head for frogspawn so i felt like unique coral was a good deal. There shipping was cheaper than anyone i could find. Plus my LFS pissed me off with there prices so... Link to comment
cswan19 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Really love your tank! beautiful Link to comment
2004jeeplaredo Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 Heres a quick mock up for a light bracket to get my LED light higher off the tank to allow better access and to reduce the intensity to my corals. Im really happy so far. Now just need to do something other than rubber bands. Total cost around 20 dollars. Link to comment
2004jeeplaredo Posted June 2, 2014 Author Share Posted June 2, 2014 More Pics!! Added a tiny clown. I am planning on going to a Nuvo 16 within a few months so he wont be in here for long. Also added another Ricordea, A Duncan, a Silver Xenia and a few more zoanthids. FTS 2 photo stitch... More Pics... These were just brown at first and was a little disappointed but now the blue is filling in nicely! Meet Nicholas, he's tiny, maybe 3/4in long. Nuvo 16 coming soon... Link to comment

NanoClown Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I think it looks fine either way. All you want to worry about is not having your LPS sting anything else around them Link to comment

The current there is a gentle lift up to the overflow so i think the sweepers would only go up and back. Link to comment

Nice. I like mine. Just wish it didn't cut down so much of the flow from the pump but makes it a more controlled flow and not to violent. Post some pics and share when ya get yours up and running.

2004jeeplaredo Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Have a new video in the works. Going to be of new scape but also timelapses of my corals, seeing movement i didnt know some had. The peppermint shrimp is really driving me nuts though. Just as the coral starts to open, the shrimp decides to stroll on em and makes em close again. Nonetheless ive captures some cool timelapses of them. Working on one now of my toadstool opening. Link to comment
cswan19 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Love time-lapses! I'll be (not so) patiently waiting for the video Link to comment
