Arkayology Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Is that dragon's breath macro in there? Has your tang taken a liking to it? I couldn't keep it in my DT because my kole kept eating it. Link to comment
Alex B Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 Whenever they're available,shoot me a PM !!!! Tank is looking top notch though man,so many colors it's crazy !! Will do. I love frags, anyone....well anyone with money coming out there ass can buy colonies. It's nice to see yourself grow out little sticks or even softies, Lps etc. I love seeing stuff grow. I wouldn't buy colonies even if i could. Damn wishing I could keep sps right now. Tanks not doing well? Is that dragon's breath macro in there? Has your tang taken a liking to it? I couldn't keep it in my DT because my kole kept eating it. It is. My tomini doesn't touch it, but then again he doesn't even eat algae sheets. I see him graze, but never has gone after nori.

ScubaJ Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Awesome thread. Took me awhile to get through it. Great tank... I am starting a similar build once my tank arrives and hope it looks half as good as yours. I'm interested to see an update on the store! Location? Name? I live in Tampa but make frequent trips to Orlando and always looking for more reefcentric stores. Link to comment
lilmatty5dimes Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Tanks not doing well? i got to a lazy spot after my vacation where a few pieces rtn (pearlberry, hawkins, and a crayola) due to salinity swing and after that i started to neglect the tank. didn't do a water change in 3 weeks really doesn't help that. i'm hoping once i get this rodi from someone in orlando i'll be able to get back into gear and get it straighten back out. or just wait a few more months until i get the 30g running. of course thats still 3 months down the road. i keep finding deals to good to pass up.

plainrt Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Cool tank and sweet fish selection. I have the nauti also but not much green. I have mine in too much light I believe from what I was told. Link to comment
RJWalters Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 YOU'RE A BAD ASS! That's a dark coloration for Phoenix though, AquaSD sells something similar - calls it Rising Phoenix. And the coral that got featured on RB was called Phoenix suns. Here's the colony growing at my LFS - I hope mine gets to be this way soon I am sooooo jealous of you guys and the bad a$$ local fish stores that are well local to you. Also I love your tank Alex you are doing one hell of a job it looks great. P.S. Congrats on opening the new store very cool Link to comment

Was a good little nano skimmer, and really compact for small sumps. i've got a friend looking to cover his bottom tank since he's going bare bottom. shot me a text sometime with a price. i think the BM would be a perfect fit for a 30g tank. the cadlight might be a lil big. i've heard some great things about them. thanks Link to comment
