metrokat Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 Brilliant idea with the wreathe. I think its going to look excellent when its totally pulled off. I can already see it in your recent pics. Fun read through this thread. I had no idea these kinds of tanks even existed! Are Katropora frags ever up for sale/trade? I have 2 mini colonies up for grabs right now actually. 1 Quote Link to comment

Veng Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 What are you going to do in the center of that, it seems like a big black distracting thing at the moment. 3 Quote Link to comment

metrokat Posted February 4, 2017 Author Share Posted February 4, 2017 Good morning from the wreath. Reef. What are you going to do in the center of that, it seems like a big black distracting thing at the moment. Cool. That's the point. 8 Quote Link to comment
xiaoxiy Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I'm going to have to agree with Veng on this one. You have a bit too much negative space in the center. That, in combination with the white sandbed on the top, is a bit distracting. Might I suggest removing the top sand and glass lip? 1 Quote Link to comment

Kellie in CA Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I actually like the negative space in the middle. The fish really pop! 4 Quote Link to comment
Beer Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 It's coming along. I like how it is starting to shape up. I think it would be a little easier to scape if there was more depth, front to back, in the lower section. I came across an really cool dropoff tank at a somewhat local fish store. They are importing them from Greece. Kind of pricy at around 4k, but it includes the light, tank, sump, stand, skimmer, and plumbing. Everything but water circulation, so no too bad. Not sure what the specs on the light are. It has strainers instead of an overflow though. 7 Quote Link to comment

metrokat Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 Oh wow, I can't keep up with you kat. Another tank? I'm gonna some tips when it's time to make my transition to the new tank. Did you start up fresh or what? I moved apartments and while I was taking my time moving the contents of the tank to a holding tank, I decided I could possibly get a new tank and so here we are. It's an upgrade. Although volume wise it's less than before - go figure. 2 Quote Link to comment
Beer Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 That is looking raelly good. Any plans for something low along the sand on the bottom? The gap on the top looks good and the space in the middle works well, but for some reason the space on the bottom is too distracting for me. It keeps pulling my focus. I really feel that it could use something to fill that in, nothing big or anything that necessarily comes out towards the glass. Just something that stays low to the sand and bridges the gap to tie the two columns together. Or maybe something along the back on the left side that cascades to the right a little bit, not necessarily connecting to the right. 1 Quote Link to comment

holy carp Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Yeah, it's taking shape nicely. I would like to see a little more asymmetry, though. 1 Quote Link to comment
