Ziggy953's 72 Bow

[marchmaxima]

Oh my...... I now want to become a salty.

Just breathtaking!

[pat8you]

You said you would post more pics. Lets see um. I love checking out your tank

[Ziggy953]

Yeah I was going to. My camera went on vacation for a little over a week and I just got it back. I'm off for the next 6 days and I intend to do some work in the tank. I have a ton of fragging to do and I need to straighten up a few things. I'll get some new pics posted. Things are growing very well.

[Jimbo7]

let us know when you get all that fraggin done, my frag tank is lookin pretty empty

[Ziggy953]

Well most of the fragging is done. I'm still going to trim up the Teal Acro some more. It has gotten so large that it is casting shadows on everything below it. I've added a few new frags to the tank and have not gotten an ID on them yet. They are Acros but not sure what kind. The Hawkins is growing nicely, though not ready for fragging. I will get some pics posted soon.

Your tank is amazing...

I like how you have the ship rope around the tank and stuff.

Heh

[MsBeanCtr]

I'll take one of those and OH! one of those too.....What??? you're not taking orders?? NUTS! LOL

[cmor1701d]

Actually he IS taking orders! I just got my second shipment of frags from Allen. Someone has to pay for taht 210 upgrade :p

Allen, please take a look at my members area post and help me identity the 3rd coral. I'm waiting for a new camera battery so I can get some pics of the others.

Post the pics of your new frags in case there's something else I want

Thanks!! The rope was my wife's idea and it really turned out neat.

I'm always taking orders!! LOL

I posted a frag pack in the classified section. I have frags of everything that is listed in that pack available as well.

The new frags I added to the tank are new corals I picked up at the LFS. They are no where near ready for selling.

[Ziggy953]

I thought I would post a few pics really quick...... I had the canopy off the tank the other day and took this shot. IGNORE THE SALT CREEP! I cleand it off. LOL


This is the right side of the tank. For those of you that saw some of the early pics of my tank you can see the amazing growth of the Teal Acro (Ziggy's Acro)


This is just a shot of my silly clowns and the purple cap w/blue polyps (lower left)


This is the left side of the tank showing the RBTA in all it's glory!


I have more pics to take as well as an updated FTS. I have to clean the glass a bit. There is some coraline on the front that I have to be careful getting to. I need a new camera!!!!

[pat8you]

wow that RBTA looks amazing. I want one of those so bad and can't have one. Glad to see it doing so well since it was so bleached when you got it.

[Ziggy953]

Thanks...I was worried about it for a few days in the beginning, and when it vanished on it's walk about.

[Benjithecookiemonster]

wow...

[RoLeX]

this tank is awesome for the size,

WD and keep the pics coming

Yeah...you've been teasing us for like 4 months now. WE WANT THE 210

[Ziggy953]

I know I know....I had to slow down the process. My wife is now a full time student so we are on a single income. So this is going to take me a little longer to complete then I thought. As soon as I get through this move at work. (new building) I will be putting some time into the workings of our new living room and thus be working towards the new tank.

[Ziggy953]

Ok so a few updates...Here is a FTS taken today. Well actually a couple shots of the tank as a whole. This is after removing the large Teal Acro colony on the right and fragging the frogspawn. If I had a better camera the quality would be nicer so I'm looking for donations to my camera fund. LOL




Here is the Teal Acro after I got it out of the tank...




The teal acro is in my frag tank right now pending a trade for a 150G Tall tank. A member of WAMAS offered me the tank in exchange for some of my corals. How could I say no????? So Sunday I'm going to pick up the new 150 and a few other items. The frags of frogspawn are looking great filled out nicely in the frag tank as well. I have a lot more updates just don't have time to finish right now. I have to get ready for another long night at work.

Stay tuned theres more to come......

[Fluff]

Wow, that's a huge colony. Tank looks great!

[ryshark]

Nice tank!!! I really like the aquascaping with the canal in the middle like the oregonreef pictures. I am going to do that on my next upgraded 180gallon tank someday when I have more depth to deal with. Looks like you are also a fan of scraping the coralline and keeping the back glass clean.

Huge crack, you are exceeding the 12". And to think that all started from a 1.5" frag, right? Wow.
