so i also now have some livestock plans hehehe since there are no fish in there now,no crabs or stealing shrimp.... im thinking some horses, wont be for a while untill i lose the halides for the radion but i think thats how its going to go :)

That'll be kool

I can't wait to see how this turns out. The shadowbox is a very interesting idea.

Geeze, Denny. Your tank is going to be so sumptuously appointed that you're going to need to hire an interior decorator to bring the rest of your place up to par. ;)

actually a move is in the works soon out of the ghetto to a nicer place:P:P

forgot to mention i also added a red and white rock flower anemone to the tank as well from coral master....this thing is awesome,of course it finds a hard spot to get a pic of lol


thinned out all my larger colonies to smaller pieces on the bottom so now the tree has a more tree look to it:P

wait till you see this thing in person , its just one of those tanks where theres too much to capture in pics:)

for all the poeple who say they wouldnt run a halide on a nano tank consider this:


my bonsaitree just about touches water level , the whole upper half of the tree is within 5-6" of the 250w halide bulb, and the rest of the tree is within 18"



the upper half is almost grew in , all the zoas and palys up there have grown out , i notice also my cotton candy and watermelon chalice has grown since ive added it up there:)

none of the anemones have moved either:P

The only thing that stopped me from a halide was heat. With you using a common sump your heat is spread out between multiple tanks. Other than that I love halides

Looks totally awesome. A lot of those corals look like they'll need some space to grow though. It's pretty packed, even after your "thinning out" process.
