It's a real gem! Thank you, I wanted to get them a bit lower to give my SPS some room up top so I did the bridge. I actually owned that blasto a few years ago can't remember where I bough it and when I got out I sold it. When I put a tank up again I practically begged the guy I sold it to to sell it back to me. It hadn't grown hardly at all in the year or so that he had it. It's now put on several more heads:) Looks better each time! Thanks so much! 3 Quote Link to comment

jstuver Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 Amazing! Thank you! I got a gold torch today so more pics to come! 1 Quote Link to comment
jstuver Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Haven't had the chance to get any pics of the new torch. Sold several corals so I have room for a shipment that should be coming next week. I've decided to go back to having a ton of euphyllia and am pretty excited to get my shipment. Oh and another rock of Florida rics because I just can't help myself! Hopefully new pics next week or if I get the chance this weekend I'll snap a few of the torch:) Also ordered the jebao doser, I had one several months ago and sold it before I even set it up but this tank takes dosing every day and I'm tired of doing it along with the fact that if I miss a day my alk drops so doser it is! The guy I sold mine to says he loves it and it's even cheaper on Amazon now so it works:) 2 Quote Link to comment

jstuver Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 Where are you finding rocks full of rics? Rare Reef brings them in sometimes. He can be a bit frustrating to deal with sometimes but has beautiful coral. 2 Quote Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Good lord, this tank Jackie, it looks amazing! Hey, do your two cardinals swim together? I got a "bonded" pair from Diver's Den but I swear they stay on opposite sides of the tank all the time! Quote Link to comment
davidanthony921 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 TOTM please and thank you.... Is rare reef legit. I hear ALOT of mixed reviews Quote Link to comment
jstuver Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 Good lord, this tank Jackie, it looks amazing! Hey, do your two cardinals swim together? I got a "bonded" pair from Diver's Den but I swear they stay on opposite sides of the tank all the time! I bought two from a local breeder when they were pretty small, at first they stayed together then they stayed on opposite sides of the tank and I was worried they might start fighting but now they are back to swimming together and rarely further than maybe 6" apart:) And thank you I appreciate the kind comment. TOTM please and thank you.... Is rare reef legit. I hear ALOT of mixed reviews Wow thank you.Yes Rare Reef is legit he has amazing corals! Not the best customer service but I've never had a problem with him and I've ordered for several years. He can be frustrating to get answers from but eventually he gets back to you. If you need something shipped a certain day though he's probably not your guy he literally ships and just sends the tracking or you would have no idea it was coming:) 1 Quote Link to comment
TFish77 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Wow this tank is gorgeous! That's incredible for only six months old. I love that tube nem as well Quote Link to comment

gena Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Rare Reef brings them in sometimes. He can be a bit frustrating to deal with sometimes but has beautiful coral.Do you just ask him for ric covered rocks? Not that I have room but nice to know that is a possibility if I'm looking . Thanks for the info!!!! Quote Link to comment
TFish77 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Thank you:) that dang tube nem decided to move yesterday and is now right up against the front glass lol never fails! At least he didn't decide to go to the very back of the tank like any nem I ever had did Quote Link to comment
jstuver Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 Do you just ask him for ric covered rocks? Not that I have room but nice to know that is a possibility if I'm looking . Thanks for the info!!!! Follow him on Facebook is the best way, he posts albums of his stuff he has for sale there before it goes to his website. He does still have one available though, it's not as nice as the rest I've seen but it's still nice. http://www.rarereef.com/rare-coral/product_info.php?products_id=16541 This is the one coming my way on Tuesday:) 5 Quote Link to comment
