Here is mine... since the AC110 takes up nearly the whole back.. i have the powerhead pointed on the underside and slightly tilted left to go over my SPS's to cross flow the ac110 spillway. Doing that helped with cyano growth ( All what you see is gone now.)

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

beautiful tank what size? and did you watch the vid hows mine look

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

also isnt cyano bad?

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

wht you all thinj good bad? is that coraline?

 

[iDream]

Cyano is bad, he meant curbing the growth, not promoting it

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

ok i thought so wasnt too sure. i wish ny tank was that nice :/ mine just dosnt seem beautiful like all of yours

 

[iDream]

You're tank is just starting out, besides I hardly consider my tank beautiful. I've got plenty of time and an awesome LED upgrade to do before I start liking my tank, right now I just like the fish

dont worry it will over time once you start adding live stock and corals

Mine is a 10gal,and yes cyano is bad... every new tank will have it so just be patient - you'll hear and read that alot in this hobby. cyano can be curbed with better feeding and flow. I have SOME coraline, but i need to setup a kalk drip/dose to supplement calcium now that I have a fair amount of calcium loving corals in the tank now. To get that to grow better.

I did watch your vid. It looks good so far I think, your scape is really nice as well.

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

thanks hack what shoulde try to add next? also guys is it weird i haven't encountered diatoms?

 

[maxst2]

I am moving all mine into a 29gal biocube when I move. I'm working on LED lighting for it now, in what little free time I have anymore!

It takes awhile to get a tank up and running and to get corals placed and happy. lol. I suggest looking into local reef clubs. You can get really good deals on coral frags from them and likely from healthy clean tanks. So you won't have to worry about ick or any other marine issue.

 

[maxst2]

reg 10gal... just the way the camera is.

 

[maxst2]

Heres what mine looked like in the beginning.

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

wow it looks nice! i have no local clubs there all deep into the next state my lfs has nice frags for $25 he has a huge brain frag i want but i need to wait to upgrade lights i cant even have zooas or buttons with a t8

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

i likke your rock max i need to find smaller pieces or some corals to fill out dead space

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

as im looking at my tank i cant believe the t8 isnt enough for the lowest of light corals
