Thanks, but I don't have the camera that some do and wish my shots were better :smile:

These new year tank shots are really pointing out how much work you've put into the tank. So full of awesomeness!! Looking really good Greg!

Looks great Greg!!!

Greg, your tank is looking great! How is that ball of bird nest doing? Can't believe that gorg has grown that much for you! Good job!

I still like the scape as is. But I would move that birdsnest down... Lots of pretty slow growing SPS that would like the extra light at the top.

Great work. Just went through the whole thing from start to finish. Great job!!

Thanks Wayne :biggrin:
I'm not sure the gorg's grown that much, but it's definately encrusting

The birdsnest is a different story
I may actually have to pull it out, bust the base off, and dip it
I've started taking pics of what might be some STN ..... :sad:

I agree, but some of my slower growing guys actually stalled when they were up high. I moved a couple a bit lower and am now seeing signs of new growth
Maybe I should trade you mine for ones that would fare better ... :wink:

I'm thinking I'd like to open up some space lower down for the big birdsnest, but that involves a re-scape as there's nowhere for such a big colony right now
I'm still on the fence about the whole idea

Well thanks for taking the time to read through the whole mess, and welcome to Canreef :smile:

Thursday night I jumped on the Chemiclean bandwagon
I've never seen skimmer pics during the process, so here's one for all of you that haven't yet done this

http://i749.photobucket.com/albums/x...pse5633e7b.jpg

Without knowing how much air the skimmer would produce, I decided to put an airstone in the DT. It's in front of an MP10. Well, as shown in the above photo, it's not necessary
One thing I did do though for safety is put my battery backup air pump in the DT. I'd hate to lose critters if the power went out

I'll get before and after pics up once the process is complete

Greg, how is the treatment? Hope it is taking care of the cyano for you. I had to do the same in January as i had a few areas in the tank with cyano and chemiclean worked well for me and I had even let it run for a few extra days just to make certain it took all the cyano out.
