bbkid43 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Where did you get your chaeto? I live in MN and buying saltwater stuff is such a pain in the a**. BTW I got my new tank shot up and running. Now I just have to work on updating my avatar. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 I bought my chaeto from a local nano-reefer. I now sell the stuff since it has grown like crazy. Maybe I can ship, but check around your area for other nano-reefers who might have some first. Link to comment
Travis Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Damnit Tigah, ever damn time I see your tank i got to change my boxers...man, some one needs to warn me before I see you tank so I can put some depends on so i don't have to keep washing clothes!!! Link to comment
Travis Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Oh, and Good Looking BG btw... Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 Damn it. I actually like the blue background now. yet I already put in an order for black acrylic back! Man...should I even bother asking him to change it? will I look like total ass for switching the last minute? Link to comment
bbkid43 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 that background looks pretty nice, you just might want to keep it like that. I really like the blue backgrounds. Now I'm wishing my background was blue too. Link to comment
Travis Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 um...Just buy it and then keep it for later. BTW, seeing in how you are buying all these corals, hows the new tank fund going? Link to comment
Travis Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Blue BGs are MUCH better looking than Blacks..I had black on every nano i had exept my new 20 Long, and I love the blue. The black is just to dark for me. Link to comment
bbkid43 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 yea Im really starting to think that now too. I'm definatley going blue on my next reef. Link to comment

I will attempt to contact the guy and see what he says....man..he's gonna hate me! haha. I took a better shot w/ blue...I have to agree w/ you 2. Link to comment

bbkid43 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 have you tried a black background lately. Who knows maybe you will like it better? Link to comment
Travis Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Hey Tigah, can we get a Shot of the tank with some of the surrond area (i.e. Walls and furniture) of you tank. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 Naw...when I had black...something seemed wrong w/ it....but w/ the blue, it looks better to me from the moment I stuck it on. damn. why didnt I try this before???? haha. okay, I'm just gonna suck it up and email the guy.

bobioden Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I LOVE the blue, it is EXACTLY what it needed. It makes your corals POP. Love it. Bob Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 Thanks, bob! heheh. Link to comment
Withers Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 yeah i like the blue too, i also like how it reflects your corals. now i wish i would've gone with a blue backround, damnit! but the reason i went with black is because i can buy black pvc, which blends in, where you can't buy blue $50 for an oregon tort frag is an awfully good price, even with $40 tacked on for shipping its still not a bad deal, but i'll have to get back to you on it, there is a chance i might find it closer. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 arg....i think i'm gonna have to sacrifice the blending of the pvc for the benefit of the color contrast of my corals. hahah. i just HOPE and PRAY that he hasn't already bought the black acrylic stuff....man! I just emailed him...crossin my fingers. Link to comment
bobioden Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 What a difference a BG makes.... Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 Very true...let's just hope that the custom acrylic guy will allow me to change the background to blue from black....=/ I really like blue now. hahha. Link to comment
bbkid43 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 I think that when you put the background on it makes you focus only on the corals and not on the tubing in the back. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 indeed. i might just suck it up and pay for the cost of the black acrylic if he already purchased it and pay again for the cost of blue. hahah. this is supposed to be my "dream" tank after all, rite? we'll see what he responds back w/. Link to comment
MiniReefin Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Very nice, but i personally (call me crazy) like the clear. Tigah, i told you, youd have new stuff when i got back. haha! i love the torts, beautiful Link to comment
Maxvan1 Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 what is the yellow coral in the middle of the tank (slightly to the left...) looks like a turbinaria? Link to comment
