so i got some new livestock. gotta love boxing day. i was really tempted to get a gigantic torch colony too, but it would have taken up a third of my tank.

well i finally got all my frags off the sand so i thought i'd post a FTS in celebration.
it does look quite bare now though, but i do have something coming that should cover up a good chunk of the right island. oh, and for those who noticed the new addition, Cirrhilabrus lubbocki FTS: http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...101/001-23.jpg |
Where did you get your percs from? They're really nice!!!
|
Looks great! What is the pink and orange fish, Karazy?
|
i got the percs at wais. he always has some cool clowns
as for the new addition, its a lubboks fairy wrasse, but im thinking about switching him out with a flame wrasse |
Just a word of advise, but both the Lubbocks and Flame Wrasse typically require larger tanks... Flames are recommended to be in 75-90G or larger, and the Lubbocks is generally 50G or larger. :)
Tank looks good though bud. |

Hey dude, tank is looking good man, look forward to seeing more corals and a light upgrade *wink wink nudge nudge*

hey guys and gals,
so heres some updates on the tank. some stocking changes have happened. first of the jawfish got switched out with a tailspot blenny. he kept spooking the other fish at night. also i have ich in the tank, but only on one fish. the neon goby is covered but everyone else is fine. it's been like that for a few weeks and i haven't been able to catch him for treatment. the weiredest and most displeasing stocking change is my lubboks fairy wrasse died. it was one of those deaths where i dont think ill ever be able to find out what happened. all the params were fine and the other fish were happy as ever (as they still are) but one day he started swimming kinda weird and limp like, and by the next day he could barley swim and was super stressed out. death followed quickly. i also got some new sps from a local frag swap that are doing quite well. but the biggest update by far is.... IM UPGRADING THIS TANK TO A BIGGER SIZE! watch for the build thread. FTS http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...y101/018-6.jpg tailspot: http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...y101/020-3.jpg some good polyp extension on this frag http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...y101/021-6.jpg |
just got a whole shwack of new SPS and some LPS from oceanic corals.
acclimating as i type. pics soon! |
Go

here's the new frags!
sorry my crappy camera doesnt take true color photos very well, the white balance is not adjustable. all the frags are form oceanic corals, minus the purple valida (thats from coral master) http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...101/002-20.jpg http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...101/005-20.jpg |
Nice stash :-). Tank looks great too.

Tanks looks great too. Is that your first order from Oceanic? |
Brett is just jealous or envious, or heck both! Pay him no mind.
Brett, I think his water is warmer ? Just keep telling yourself that and it'll be okay. |
I was halfway thru photoshopping that pic and flipping it upside down for a witty comeback when I thought "No Brett...you're bigger than this (not literally) so grow up".
|
i had quite the laugh at your post brett. coinsidentaly my mom calls sps "erection corals"
yes this is my first order of corals form OC and im am very pleased, especialy with the awesome purple monti cap. |
yeah the grape cap and fire truck are pretty sweet, I too have the fire truck, and its kept its color really well.
|
well a little update.
looks like my interest is heading towards the sps side of the hobby so my tank is as well. i added two new fish. a longfin fairy wrasse and a yellow-green canary blenny. i also built a new mesh lid so i am finaly not running stupid glass lids (thanks carmen!) the question i have for you reefers is what should i do with my right rock island. its got a bit of a weird flow around it being so close to the vortech and none of my sps seem to enjoy it very much (minus the purple valida, but its pretty close to the other island) my idea was some sort of anemone, but im afraid of it ending up like a bull in a china cabinet and ending up with tons of stung up SPS. thoughts? pics: FTS:http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...101/009-16.jpg new canary blenny (he's very active): http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...101/005-21.jpg new longfin fairy wrasse (doesn't like the camera) http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...101/003-24.jpg |
