Awesome! I love the huge spaghetti leather....I have a smaller one and it is so cool.

What is the coral in the back left of the pic with the zoos and blastomussa?

 

[seaham358]

The sinularia is a cool coral and it grew fast...

The one you aksed about is a Alveopora, just looked and I don't have a pic loaded on PB of that one.. I will take one and post. Very nice coral and unlike a Gonapora the Alviopora is a very hardy coral.

Very colorful full tank Looks great under that VHO lighting, think I'm going to have to switch soon. What brand of bulbs/ballast are you using?

 

[melosu58]

That is one very nice looking tank. I love the VHO look also.

Super tank. Amazing!!!

Thanks all..
Are the mods the only ones who come here

4x160 VHO Ice cap ballast (the best) URI bulbs(the best) 2 super actinic, 2 white actinic.
The color is unmatched by any other light set ups, PC, MH can not come close and that shimmer line with MH is nothing that special IMO.
If you want color then go VHO. I think URI has changed there name? I need to check.
I'll be adding a 5th bulb this summer so I can try clams. My buddy has a 125 and runs 5 bulbs and he has about 5 different clams and they are doing very well. he even has a few colored sticks in the tank that do well.

Very impressive! I did notice your clow had a suction cup stuck to it....lol!

 

[melosu58]

Please let me know about the URI change as they are the only bulbs I use. I`m hoping to go to 4 bulbs soon.

 

[seaham358]

they still make them I thought they changed the name?? have to check to see where I read that.
You will see a difference with 4 bulbs..
Are you running 3 on one ballast now?

 

[melosu58]

Just running 2 now. That`s all I`ve ever run.

But those "colored sticks" sure do love MH. Personally I really like the shimmer. It adds a movement to the tank- brings it to life IMO.

Your out of room already, time for an upgrade

I don't have much money in corals, I got the corals when small and they grew and a lot I got in trades. Got a few deals on guys breaking their tanks down so keep eyes open for this. I also belong to a local reef club where frag trading happens all the time.
Only $2000 for everything to get the tank running, tank, stand, lights, Lr , Ls, skimmer, sump, pumps and salt water delivered.
I like to keep things simple, nothing fancy or high tech on my tank.

thanks for the kind words..

I was wondering what they ment by only 9 pics

I got lots more if you want 125 pics I can come close........
