Reefkid88 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Awesome pics and great additions. The best I can get with a iPhone lol. I've got my camera on charge,I doubt it can do any better lol. Things are looking so much better with T5's now. I'm happy with the switch,I just need one more bulb. Quote Link to comment
D Z Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I got these 2 Mille frags over the weekend,and the colors are gettig crazy. The blue one had slight hues of pink,but as the days progress,so is the color. Did a water change and took advantage and grabbed a top down shot: Not bad for $10 a piece Nice looking Milles. Where did you get them? Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Nice looking Milles. Where did you get them? Thanks man, Living reef. The bluish one is getting more and more pink and the bottom is kinda starting to turn purplish. Quote Link to comment

Reefkid88 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 $10 happy frags ftw No joke. I got those two,a Granulosa frag and a Green Slimer for $30. I'm waiting for them to drag up the 40 Indo colonies they just got as well. Quote Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Isn't this tank only 16" long or something? A 22" T5 bulb would just look weird on top of it Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Isn't this tank only 16" long or something? A 22" T5 bulb would just look weird on top of it It's eiter 16" or 18" I can't remember. With the fixture hung,it's not that weird. Regardless you won't see it is pictures lol. You think that's weird,you should see it over my 2 gallon lol that's weird. I was thinking of getting a Mr.Aqua bookshelf tank though in a few months to house my Zoa's and Acans and have the 7 gallon all sps. Haven't decided yet. Quote Link to comment

lilmatty5dimes Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Those acans are sick. Mine acans are loving this new tank. The one has popped 2 new heads that are almost as big as the 2 i started with. I saving up some money to make a trip to living reef. Had a friend i visited who bought 2 sps there that are looking great for only $10. Quote Link to comment

I got the Acans at Top Shelf Aquatics,when I went in there this weekend,I was so disappointed,it was empty and one of their main SPS guys Travis,had quit. People have their opinions on them,but I LOVE them. That's where I get my sps from. I'm waiting for their new colonies to get settled in and for them to chop me some pieces up,they had some KILLER pieces. I think that's the only place I'll be shopping from now on.

jedimasterben Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Doubtful. Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Doubtful. I have some serious algae (green and brown) that're filled with bubbles. Unless it's some diatom bloom of some sort. Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 I'm still kind of battling this algae,over the weekend I took my filter off the tank,cleaned the hell out of that,changed my carbon and put 2 pinches of GFO in the bag as well. Took my skimmer out,cleaned it then soaked it in vinegar along with the airstone,then let the Airstone pump some bubbles out in a bowl of Distilled water. I haven't fed the tank anything since last Thursday so I'm hoping that helps. But last night,I turned the lights off,then went to check on the tank before I laid down,and this Acro had INSANE PE: Quote Link to comment
D Z Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Very nice! Hope things turn around on the algae front. Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Very nice! Hope things turn around on the algae front. I hope so to man.. I'm not too worried about it seeming this tank won't be running much longer. Quote Link to comment
jinx Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I hope so to man.. I'm not too worried about it seeming this tank won't be running much longer. Taking it down? Quote Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Taking it down? Eventually,this was supposed to just be temporary until I got my 7 gallon together and I finally got everything done. So once I get my RW-4 and water (after the holidays) this tank will come down. But eventually set back up,just haven't decided what it'll house yet. Quote Link to comment
