Lol yea it definitely makes it looks bigger haha. I've been wanting a smaller tank anyway so I think I'm going to pick up a 5 gallon of some sort. I like the dims of one of the cadlights zen series tanks so I might pick one up, and run a aqua clear 70 with a fuge...Maybe nano box Link to comment
Cameron6796 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Wait isn't the 60f like 8 gallons Link to comment
Smithjm5 Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Wait isn't the 60f like 8 gallons 8.6 plus about 2 gallons or so with the canister filter, but I treat it a little different since it has such a long footprint. You can do more with it fish and coral wise. IMO Link to comment
Smithjm5 Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Well I thought i'd stop being lazy and finally take some more (crappy i-phone) pics. Haven't gotten anymore corals recently, but I think I may have melted some zoa's I got since they haven't opened up and the color has gotten really bad on them. Oops lol. Other than that I picked up a really small royal gramma, and got rid of the yellow tail damsel, he's now in another tank. New scape BTW! (ish) Doubled since I got it a few months ago Little guys been with me since the beginning A bad pick of the whole family haha, royal gramma poked his head out too! Link to comment

Smithjm5 Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 So I woke up a nice surprise this morning which is partially my fault.... Anyway My chord to my wp-10 completely ripped apart. I had the controller Velcro to my stand on the inside and it came un-stuck and the controller fell resulting in the wire tearing. I know I shouldn't of let it drop but that shows how cheap the connectors are on the pump because the controller itself weighs less than a pound and it only fell about a foot. But anyway now I need a new pump, I might try the new tunze 6020 I think it's called, we'll see Good news on the pump! I didn't really look into the cables until I started unhooking everything and it turns out it was the power cable not the one attached to the pump so now I just need a new power adapter Link to comment

Smithjm5 Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 So I took the yellow-tail damsel back to my LFS and a guy saw it as I was bringing him in and said he'd take it, so he's already got a new home! While I was there I picked up a new buddy for my clown, a small black occellaris Link to comment
