there is any empty spot in the first picture in the right hand corner...a fish cvan easily go in there ....:)

Your right Ron! Perhaps a strawberry grouper? :mrgreen: The order with the tunze products is finally arriving today (according to the trucking company), so hopefully I will be back in the tank today causing some major waves:mrgreen:. Little did my fish know that their New Years resolution is to loose weight by exercising more. More pics from yesterday.

Great pics doug! i need your advice next time, got a gift of a zoa rock :) i looked them up they are either candy apply pink or some weird exotic one...need to wait till they open up in the system. They can take up to 3 weeks right? never kept zoa's before.....sorry for going off topic. Yoour tank looks amazing.....you should accept..... i'll volunteer to break in your tunze's you know...make sure everything works good for a few months :)

Thanks Ron. I like prezzies too:biggrin: Never kept zoas before??? Not to worry about the zoas. They can take a while sometimes to settle in.


The shipment I have been waiting for finally made it to the shop today:smilecol:

Now for the hardest part. Deciphering all the instructions:mrgreen:

man alive, thats some hardcore gear lol

looks great and would love to see what you think when you hook it up

btw, very jealous of the atu. sick off topping up my tank every time i get home

I just added an osmolator a couple weeks ago. You're gonna love it.

+1 on the jealousy of the ATO... wishing I had bought that instead of the Vertex skimmer on Boxing Day..

Everybody who has an osmolator says they love it, so to me it was the only one to go with. I didnt tackle the osmolator yet, I will hook that up tomorrow in better light.

I did get the nanostreams in. The original plan was to swap out the two visible koralias with the nanostreams, but I ended up leaving the K4 in the middle of the tank and put one Tunze on each end of the tank. 6600 gph :biggrin: I didnt see a big difference in the flow, but when I plugged them in and put them on 100% the left side emergency drain started to trickle. So obviously more water is being pushed to that end of the tank than before. As I was tweaking the gate valves to get things balanced out in the overflows my skimmer started to overflow. So the increase in flow stirred up enough crud to cause the skimmer to go haywire(so much so, that I had to shut it off). I will play around with the different modes later. Im curious to see if the if the pulse mode will generate a wave or not with the other powerheads still going.

Heres a few more recent pics.

wow talk about macro shots. that shot is practically inside the clam.

Im really impressed with the macro feature on my otherwise unimpressive point and shoot.

The last few pics from the last "shoot".
