Daveluce Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 New full tank shot. I adjusted the levels to appear more how it is in real life. There's only so much I can do on an iphone though. Link to comment
Daveluce Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Thanks. It's not much yet, but it's getting there. Thanks for looking Link to comment
xiaoxiy Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Tank looks fantastic! Bottom Right. What coral is that? (Is it just a purple tipped hammer?) Link to comment

Daveluce Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 So I got a bicolor blenny a few weeks back. He was an awesome little guy, very entertaining to watch. Unfortunately that little bastard nipped the hell out of my corals. It took me 2 1/2 hours to catch him haha. I returned him and traded him for a tiger blenny. I should have watched him more at the store. Then maybe I would have noticed that he was not healthy. I acclimated him, dropped him in, and he didn't move an inch. The next morning he was dead. A week or so later I grabbed a yellow watchman and a pistol. These guys are so god damn fun to watch build caves. My whole tank is a series of caves and tunnels. They're both doing well. Last weekend I picked up a purple firefish too. Maxing out my bio load haha. He is boring. Doesn't do much except hide in his hole and float in the same spot. Until- I thought he was dead because I hadn't seen him in a day. I fed the tank some mysis and what do I see? He's hanging with the shrimp and goby! So now all three of them hang in the caves. Pretty sweet! And here's some terrible pics Link to comment

Thanks! They are incredibly fun to watch. I wish I knew I wanted them before I set up my tank so I could strategically place the rocks for better viewing. I'm thinking of getting a frogspawn to put next to my hammer on the bottom right. I have a torch up top that is pretty cool. It was on its last legs when I got it but has recovered well so far.

Daveluce Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 A couple new fts's. I got some colored films you place over your cam, they work pretty good at filtering out the blue. I haven't messed with them too much yet, but here's a couple shots I just took. Link to comment
lilmatty5dimes Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 those pics are a lot better. nice grab on the films. Link to comment
Daveluce Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 those pics are a lot better. nice grab on the films. Best 5$ I've spent! Next I'm gonna grab a macro lens for my iphone. I should just man up and buy a nice cam, but that would cut into my coral money. Link to comment
AFI Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Hey @Daveluce any updates? Still liking the tank? Thinking about getting the Cadlights 18G Mini II for my first nano. Any advice is appreciated! Link to comment
