sdwarrior Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Blue backgrounds rock seriously something about em and a MH fix that just jumps out at you When I set up my tank I didnt paint the back till I saw yours and other peeps tanks, the only thing is that I picked darker shade of blue. Awesome tank BTW cant wait to see it filled up with corals. Link to comment
Cadwalader86 Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 What brand and model is your sump im looking for one for my 20 L Link to comment
Bobalouy Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 ecotoxlady - I'd be happy to help you with a new setup, its almost more fun than stocking the tank. Cadwalader86 - Its made by Euro-fil, I believe its the 125, I really don't know too much about it. Coming up on two months, and everything has been going smooth. Im starting to like not having any fish, the tank stays nice and clean. And all the hair algae pretty much died. I am infested with red flatworms though, havn't dealt with them yet. Anyway here are some new shots. These zoas have been in my pico, then moved to my frag tank, then to a dark bucket for a month, and I could always tell they had a red ring, but they never really popped. Now they are loving the MH. (So are the hydroids unfortunately) A few top down shots: Link to comment
Gerber77 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 dang. that is a killer tank. very nice (borat voice) Link to comment
Obsessed Reefer Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 very nice (borat voice) One of the best movies ever made.... Very nice Tony. You should pick up some fish, give the tank more life. Jesse Link to comment
Bobalouy Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 Yeah, I'll get a fish sooner or later. Just having a hard time deciding on them. Im probably going to get a peppermint shrimp this weekend. Link to comment
Zatoichi Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Yeah, I'll get a fish sooner or later. Just having a hard time deciding on them. Im probably going to get a peppermint shrimp this weekend. don't buy a fish man....they are annoying to feed all the time, they jump, and add alot to the bioload plus coral-banded shrimp eat bristle worms, so i suggest getting one of those instead of the peppermint shrimp, but peppermint shrimp are cool too(i just really hate worms in my tank) if u do get a fish, get a non-jumping fish cuz mine jumped again and it didn't survive this time Link to comment
Derby Reefer Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 if u do get a fish, get a non-jumping fish cuz mine jumped again and it didn't survive this time I lost a bunch of fish back in the day cause I did not realize I needed something over my tank and I had jumpers. Link to comment
jjjo Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 i dont mean to invade your thread here.. but it looks like one of your zoo colonies have (hydroid??) jelllies? all over them, which will spread and kill everything. literally. i lost 120 zpp polyps due to these buggers Link to comment
Bobalouy Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 Zatoichi - Come on feeding fish isn't that bad I am was planning on making a mesh top if I get a jumper. Now as for the coral banded, I will never put one in my tank, every time I see one at the LFS they are up to no good. Besides worms are awesome, I think they are far more beneficial than a CBS. jjjo - yes I know they are hydroids, they have been on the rock for about 2 years now. I wanted to let the zoos grow out a little before I try removing them. Which I think its about time to go for it. Link to comment
Zatoichi Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 have you added anything else to your tank recently? Link to comment
sammy113 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Coolest 20L ever seen. Love it! Link to comment
Bobalouy Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 Thanks guys! Zat, still haven't had a chance to get to the LFS they close to early. Link to comment
Zatoichi Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Thanks guys! Zat, still haven't had a chance to get to the LFS they close to early. I know how it is. The one I like to go to closes at 6 every day, and it's like 30 min away from my house, so I have to wait for the weekends to go there. Link to comment
KMitch Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Wow! really nice, i like the variation in background colors from standard blue or black. KM Link to comment
Cam barr Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 great tank nice progress keep it up Link to comment
Zatoichi Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 it's been a couple of weeks since u last posted, and i was wondering if u added any new corals or fish to your tank. Link to comment
Bobalouy Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 Well I finally picked up a fish yesterday, a Solar Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus solorensis). I have been reading about them for a while now. And get mixed opinions on tank size. But the LFS had one, and a 25% off sale. So I couldn't resist This is the best pic so far, doesn't do him justice at all, but he has been hiding alot. Link to comment
alexmurovec Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 wow this tank is beautiful, makes he want to get a blue background. Link to comment
kappa Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I'm glad somebody here on NR besides me who does not want crabs in the main display tank. I have one Astrea snail in main tank, and the rest of the snails live in the refugium. Link to comment
Bobalouy Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 Yeah I cringe when I here people talking about putting 20 hermits in their 10g. They are annoying and just mess things up. I am a big fan of astreas, and my nassarius takes care of left over food better than hermits. Update: Got a Sixline. Link to comment
Obsessed Reefer Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I agree, I only added hermits because I had an algae problem. Now I have two left, and they killed 4 snails. I have 1 snail left, and like 10 baby snails. When I get back from NC and after going to Dr. Macs on Tuesday, I'm taking out the hermits. We need some more pics. Link to comment
icenine Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Very nice!! Hows the wrasse doing? Have you anything over the top to keep it from floor surfing? Link to comment
