sangheili Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Frags of all of these coming soon... (Some of these photos are a bit blurry, had to out-of-water shots due to the tank being so shallow instead of normal in-the-water shots with my camera lens porthole) Aussie AcrosIndo/Bali AcrosWider angle shot... 3 Quote Link to comment
HM3105 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 So what are you using for flow in these tanks? The first post said a lot of Jebaos and soon to be gyres but what are you using now? Quote Link to comment
sangheili Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 So what are you using for flow in these tanks? The first post said a lot of Jebaos and soon to be gyres but what are you using now? I get about 20-30x turnover from the return pumps alone and it all flows linearly from one end to the other of the raceway. On top of that I have, IIRC, 4x Jebao RW-20s, 2x Jebao RW-15s, and 2x Jebao RW-8s. There is a heck of a lot of flow in the tank. I am waiting for the big Gyres to come out. Not quite sure how I will use them yet. I run Gyre 150s on my 3 other tanks though right now. 2 Quote Link to comment

sangheili Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Commence the drool. Also, for extra points, compare these colonies to earlier shots from this thread (same exact color profile settings and camera settings). These colors must be executives, because they are turning RICH. (Worst pun ever) 2 Quote Link to comment

sangheili Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 I want one of the acro crabs really bad. Willing to sell me one when I buy some pieces? I could try. They don't ship well unless kept in their colony. Pretty hard to get them out too. Quote Link to comment

Lowkeycoral Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 I would like to build a smaller scale version of this in my small garage or study lol. Amazing. Are you fragging and growing coral to sell obviously? Quote Link to comment

Are you fragging and growing coral to sell obviously? I would caution that unless it's a hobby, you should think long and hard Making money selling coral is actually extremely difficult and immensely costly up-front. To your second question, Yes I sell coral at frag swaps and on our website, www.house-of-sticks.com - come check us out 1 Quote Link to comment
sangheili Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 The plan for this tank is 100% Aquaculture. No wild colonies will ever be placed in it. Only fresh frags cut off stuff from other systems. This will have the added benefit of massively reducing the risk of pests or nuisance algae/bacteria making its way into the tank. As such, it will be quite a while before it produces some frags for sale 5 Quote Link to comment
