plainrt Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 That wall looks awesome! My clowns would lay eggs in the same corner! On the glass and silicone too Thanks much. Silly clowns I was following at some point because when I clicked on it I was on page 25. Dual sided makes great sense. I have 2 AquaClear filters in my 20g for Gertie and I used to wipe off the algae that grew on top where the water flows in, now I leave it, until it starts hanging in. You could create and sell sumps with built in algae scrubbers. Lol owner of my favorite fish store thought was an interesting idea and is waiting to see how it works. He builds custom sump setups and sells at his store. I'm gonna have to charge him if he steals my design lol. Oh wait I always feel like owe him money anyways with the deals he gives me. 2 Quote Link to comment

FlowerMama Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 I had to click on the picture and make it bigger so I could see all that's in there. What's the coral in front on the end and it kinda fans out? Lots colors going on in here! 1 Quote Link to comment

FlowerMama Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Oh ok, ty. I just didn't recognize the shape. Quote Link to comment
Felicia Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I really like the antiqued look you put on that stand! Really goes well with the wood feature wall. I like how it contrasts with the sleek moderness of the rimless tank and hanging fixture. That latest FTS is stunning! I don't even notice the brown acros because the big picture is just looking great! Really love the scape and the open space now! 2 Quote Link to comment

plainrt Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 I think he likes the new tank better. There isn't as much direct flow in it and makes easier on it. Quote Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Ah, ok, he's behind the coral I couldn't identify cuz I don't know sps. See, kinda looks splayed like a fan. I like how you caught him mid-chomp/swallow. 1 Quote Link to comment

I like how you caught him mid-chomp/swallow. Yeah I see what you mean now. It kept growing against glass in old tank so kept fragging it up. Now it can grow out some Quote Link to comment
Felicia Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Your fuzzy is a lot smaller than I realized! Looks like he's doing well! Cute little guy 3 Quote Link to comment

My tiny reef Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 So, I had trouble with chalice in my 14 gallon...I think I attribute it to a drop in Cal. Do you run any dosing? I'm wondering if I can try them again now in my 45 and just stay on top of WCs. 1 Quote Link to comment

Also I have found some chalices are harder to keep than others. The thin skin ones are harder imo. Find a nice thick skin one and give it a try. 3 Quote Link to comment
