Bravo sir ! Very nice indeed . Who needs stinkin SPS anyway ! :)

 

Gorg's always were tough for me back in the day. Havent tried any lately. Never did good for me because they were non-photosynthetic , and had to be feed well to keep them alive. How are yours doing as time goes on ?

 

You still rocking that single Prime ? Amazing if so .

 

I settled on a Kessil 360we for my new 170 build. Prob a bit overkill as I am not sure if I am going SPS or not ..........may make it a LPS only tank ........ not sure yet . Can always run the 360 at half power or so . For now the tank is sitting in the corner collecting dust , till I have more time . Live rock is circulating in a bin ready to go in .

I sure don't need no stinkin SPS :lol: I have a few different types of Gorgs all are doing awesome except the orange tip. It started to recede but I got it to stop and hope it regrows some next flesh or skin whatever you call it. I like Kessil lights my LFS uses them on all there tanks. Look forward to your new tank thread.

No derailing this thread! Take it to the lounge :lol: move January 8, tank should go up within a week or two after

:lol:

Love the tank !!!!!!!

Definitely TOTM material.

Do you dose any supplements?

Thanks a lot appreciate that. Yes I dose Amino Acids from Brightwell and Coral Amino from Kent everyday.

 

How do you like the 170? Im between that and the cad versa 42.

I love the 170 probably my favorite tank next to my Elos mini. Red Sea knocked it out of the park with the reefer. I would say do a search on Red Sea Reefer and Cadlights and let the results or complaints donthe deciding. I can tell you from what I hear Red Sea has amazing customer service.

It's looking awesome! So much color and movement :)

Thanks Teeny I love all the movement.

Holy crap! 2 weeks and I didn't know about this thread? I guess I have some catching up to do. :)

Only 5 pages :lol:

Lawn - do you have any water drip/splash from around the filter sock holder? It's the only noise I can't get rid of...

Yes I HAD that noise. I shoved some poly floss in the sock so it sticks out of the water a little in the sock. That eliminates that drip noise.

You are awesome, that worked. I thought it was water getting around the sock but it was the water dripping into the sock.

 

Sorry about the hi-fin, I had one jump out of my IM 10. My 2 year old noticed it dried up on the floor and learned how to say "dammit" when he pointed it out to me.

I have kept one in my tank. He jumped after about a year. Guy at the LFS said they can be kept in warmer tanks but have will have a shorter life span due to their metabolic rate.

I think he will probably be alright if he's been ok this long. No worries buddy.

Beautiful looking fish.
