Otter Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 That pico is just stunning, and you're a very good photographer. You've inspired me to go build a case-stand for my tank. Please keep updating frequently! Link to comment
coralbuff Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 Thanks Otter, I appreciate the compliments. Have fun on your project! coralbuff Link to comment
somoney Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 OK All! Finally some more pics. Enjoy! Coralbuff Awsome Tank Coralbuff, Do you have a scoreboard over your bar with odds? It looks like you have a shot of Hammer vs. GSP fight. My Money is on the Hammer for the win in the 4th on a technical. PS. You've enspired me to build another LONG Bookshelf tank formyself! If you had anything to do over (Rock Choice, Sand, Coral, Baffles, Pump, Plumbing, etc) what would you have done diffrent with this tank? Link to comment

If you had anything to do over (Rock Choice, Sand, Coral, Baffles, Pump, Plumbing, etc) what would you have done diffrent with this tank? Thanks somoney, The only thing I might consider to do diferent would be the use of tonga branch to allow easy placement of a wider selection of frags. Other than that, I am pleased with the outcome. The GSP and Hammer are still at it occasionally. However I believe the alternating current aids in the prevention of of prolonged sweeper tentacle contact. There are no signs of any dammage to eighthor contender. So all is well at this point. Sorry for the late response, I have been out of state. Good Luck on your project, coralbuff Link to comment

scottk Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Great tank! I think wave action/current is a major factor for success that people underestimate. You have handled it well. How are you doing topoff? Link to comment

How are you doing topoff? Thanks scottk, RO Fresh as needed. I do use a split (lengthwise) glass top leaving a 1" open area only. This slows evaporation but still allows gas exchange and ventilation. I change 1/2 gallon salt every 10 days. Coralbuff Link to comment
kevxross Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 As everyone else said, that is an awesome tank! How's that clown doing? I'm working on a 5.5 AGA myself and would like to be able to have a false percula in it (mainly because that's about all my LFS has ). Do you just have it in there temporarily, or is 5.5g enough for a false perc? Thanks! Link to comment
jayjay1976 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I dunno if anyone asked this yet, but where can I get one of those nifty LONG tanks? I'm thinking this small volume would make it easy to use an inexpensive 40 watt or so CF light. im looking for a cheap small setup for my office reef. jason Link to comment
shookbrad Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Were did you get the wave maker from. Great wood work! Your tank looks very professional. Link to comment
coralbuff Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 Coral, anything new? Still the Same Stock Ray, All is growing and doing fine! I will be starting a 120-135g soon and will prob. move all my inhapitants from all my tanks into one. (gradually and once all is safe to do so of course) I have been very buisy with work (need extra $ for the big tank) so been off line for a while, I hope all is well in your world.

It is based on a Betta show tank using T5 Lighting. Coraline is spreding fast now. Thanks Coralbuff Were did you get the wave maker from.Great wood work! Your tank looks very professional. Thanks Shook, I puchased the W/M from Dr. Fosters I think. They are available many places though. It is working great! Coralbuff As everyone else said, that is an awesome tank!

Do you just have it in there temporarily, or is 5.5g enough for a false perc? Thanks! It is near time to move him to my bigger tank (50g) he likes to host in the Torch as does the clown in my 50. So I will move him with his symbiotic pal. I am starting a bigger Tank but may not finish soon enough to move him to that one.I would rather set him up in the 50 for now so I do not haveto rush the big project.
