Nice clam!

And I don't even like clams...but this one is nice!

Beautiful Sailfin as well. I get mine on Sunday from a friend and can't wait. Its the one tang I have always wanted but never had a big enough tank until now.

This clam is a beauty, my other one is nice but this one takes the cake. I was a little hesitant on the sailfin at first but it has turned into a nice addition, pic does'nt do it justice it really is a nice specimen, I am sure once you get yours you will love it.

The tang looks waaaaay better in your tank. Lighting sure does make a difference.

Never was a big fan of sailfins before but seeing that picture has changed my mind.
WOW... very nice specimen and great photo. :wink:

Thanks, and that pic really doesn't show him at his best, they actually have more color than they look like under the right conditions.

Mrfish55 05-02-2009 02:04 AM

Couple new additions, things are starting to fill in nice.

Oh my:love: I love that first one in the center of the pic. We'll talk :wink:

Skimmerking 05-02-2009 03:17 AM

dude the corals look great, me too the middle coral in the first pic is sexy, how about a FTS and where is the vortechs :mrgreen:

Mrfish55 05-02-2009 03:48 AM

That one in the middle is one of my wifes fav's, The local dealer got in an order today but when I checked his params the other day his nitrates were thru the roof so I have 18 new colonies in there right now till I get him straightened out, who knows what with a reef tour comming to town these might all get snapped up before they make it back to the store:lol: I think Lance is comming over tomorrow so they may not even make it to the tour! I will try to get a fts tomorrow.

Oh good that will be about the time I can make it :mrgreen:

Mrfish55 08-15-2009 07:24 PM

Finally getting around to some long overdue maintenance and found this fella cruising on the rock, have to do some research and find out how reef freindly it is, could be the cause of my recent coral losses

Mrfish55 10-23-2009 10:42 PM

Well after a turbulent past 6 months that saw the loss of quite a few nice pieces it looks as though things are finally turning around, here are a couple shots from today.
This was a piece I recv'd from Marie a couple weeks ago, great color and polyp extension, growing nice despite nearly cooking in the quarrantine due to heater malfunction.

And here is an Acro that a few months ago was on the verge of joining his friends in the calcium reactor, starting to get some color back.

So today we celebrate by adding a few new pieces.

Hey, your tank is on the mend. Whoooo Hooooo! Right on!

Mrfish55 09-09-2010 05:09 AM

Long time since any updates on this, had it's ups and downs over the past year but looks like it is on the up swing right now, pic of the bubble from tonight, at least it's happy, this thing is easily 2 feet accross when fully expanded and that's not including the sweepers.

Been awhile, renovations on the house have left the tank neglected so time for some attention, new lights
