Yeah, it is quite annouying.

Hey Mitchell, You heard of Masa?
If not, your going to love this site.

 

[Mitchell0605]

In passing yeah. Why?

 

[dannyb]

Register there and look at the classifieds, Alot of people frag corals and sell fish on there cheap.

 

[Mitchell0605]

Have you bought anything?

 

[dannyb]

Yeah, Plenty of stuff. I get fish and corals from people that live around my area all the time.

People even give away stuff.

 

[Mitchell0605]

Time to go register!

Bad news guys.

Lost all fish to ich, No signs of it. Added the Wrasse(Having the ich, The guy at the store said some of the fish had ich breakout but they copper treating them all so it should be fine)

Then boom, 2 days later. All gone.
Very sad.

So now, Im going to concerntrate on corals and get it stocked with that and wait 6-8weeks for the ich to die off them start again with the fish really.

I know how you feel... I just bought a reef tank from someone a month ago added a few fish, and bang ich wiped out all 6 fish in a week. I used ich attack for a week, and even though it seemed better after a few days all the fish died.

You used meds in a reef tank...?

 

[shurton]

ich-attack is 100% organic and reef safe... that's also probably why it didn't work so well. Many other people have had success with it though.

Hello.

Abit of a update, Well quite a big update.
Cured ich and fish are living once again.
Started with the reef as i said and got a few nice corals and one really nice Carpet Anemone.

Duncan

Elegance

Flure Green Leather Tree

Red Lobo

Orange/Purple Lobo

Purple/Blue with a gold ring lobo

THE Anemone - Stichodactyla Gigantea (Pink Ring to Fluro Green in the middle)

And lastly, A FTS.

Let me know what you guys think, Still alot of corals needed but moneys the problem. The anemone was quite expensive, But it was a must when i sore it at the LFS.

Also got a nice Coral Goby that lives in that green leather and got a Yellow Headed Sleeper Goby.

Not really concerntrating on fish at the moment, Would like to get the reef going first.
My nitrates are still steady at 20ppm, I've done multiple water changes and they just dont seem to want to go down!

Anyway, Let me know what you guys think!

That huge nem is freaking awesome. It looks amazing. Great tank btw.

 

[Greenmaster]

I WANT THAT ANEMONE! hehe wanna send it to me in about... 3 months j/k Looks awesome in your tank man! I'm jealous.

 

[Zer0]

What kind of camera you using? I like the quality of the shots.

 

[dannyb]

Thanks, Yeah i couldnt resist it when i found it at my LFS. There were a few people interested in it but luckily i got in first.
There is a anemone crab somewhere in there.

Camera im using is my phone, 5mega pixel.
Some of the shots where taken from my 12mega pixel sony camera. But nothing flash.

 

[Mitchell0605]

Awesome Nem Danny. Your 3 Clowns seem to love it.

 

[thominil]

I love the tang, just pops out in your tank. Looks amazing! I guess you lucked out with clowns hosting, mine didn't host my nem so I gave up after a month and gave it back to Petland and it's now thriving in their DT where a pair of percs. host it. Good job by the way.

 

[maxima423]

that nem is god **** HUGEEEE OMG!!!!

 

[dannyb]

Yeah, One clown came with it, It was wild caught.

The 2 blacks are Tank Bred, It was funny, They went in it within the first 30mins, They must of followed the other clown because before this tank i had another carpet and it took Tank Bred Occys 4 Months to figure out what the carpet was.

Thanks for the comments.

Got a Flame Hawk today, Great little personality.
And for the Tang, Yeah his funny to watch, Follows you along the tank and trys to get in photos, He has survived alot of things that have happened in my tank, Had him for about 1-2 years now.

 

[maxima423]

that anemone is the star of the tank IMO, people must be like when they come over "WOW WHAT IS THAT!!!! and nemos!!!!!!"
