jstuver Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Thanks! Hopefully more clams to come. I always wanted them in there but wanted to wait for the tank to mature. I was able to hold off for 15 months Wow that's impressive! I am planning a new tank right now with your tank as inspiration and I was thinking clams would look awesome eventually too lol. 1 Quote Link to comment

brad908 Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 Anyone else hate this new Nano-Reef update? I post from my phone 99% of the time and it is brutal compared to the old form version. 1 Quote Link to comment

I find this update to be far more mobile friendly. What are you trying to do that's limiting? 1 Quote Link to comment

Scorched Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Mandarins looking sweet as usual. And I too don't like the auto subscribe feature. Its probably in the forum settings somewhere to turn it off. Edit - Yep Go to your user settings. Then notification settings. Uncheck Automatically follow content I reply to. The one above is for subscribing to new threads you start I believe. 1 Quote Link to comment

I like NR too much to move away, but there have been other forums where it wasn't worth the hassle after they made various updates lol _______________________________________________ What does everyone do when they get bored of a tank? I love this tank but it is just there to look at, at this point. I think a lot of us chase that initial design and build feeling. 2 Quote Link to comment
brad908 Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 After having this tank up for almost a year and a half, finally finishing up the door to the stand. Just need to decide how to paint it now 10 Quote Link to comment

I try to look for an interesting creature or coral that can rekindle my passion. With your tank being open which I assume is none negotiable, a lot of fish that are jumpers are out. Perhaps a cool invert. Only you can know what you will find interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment

Christopher Marks Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 The door for the tank stand turned out nice, is it on a sliding track or does it just pop out? A bold accent color would be cool, green or orange? 1 Quote Link to comment

We also thought about painting it some blue/gold/white. We will see. It just sits there for now, might add something to the bottom so it slides a little easier. Wish we could get rid of this carpet too. 1 Quote Link to comment
jstuver Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Door looks really nice! Hey let me know if you ever need to trim up your carpet halimeda, I ordered some but it came in looking pure white and he told me to give it a bit but it basically just disintegrated:( 1 Quote Link to comment

brad908 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 Mangroves Just started shaping them more to go over the tank and need to adjust the light. 4 Quote Link to comment
brad908 Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Changing up the tank a little. Put the hybrid over the mangroves and started shaping them even more out and over the tank. No t5's on in these pics, need to order new 6500's. 7 Quote Link to comment
