Pics Nov 16 (56K = no)
Hey all, quite a bit has changed in my tank in the last little while, so I thought I might as well post some pics:
Tank Specs: 37G Oceanic CSL T3 Return 2xAqua Clear 301 powerheads 1x250W DE 12000K (CoralVue) Reef Optix III+ Pendant Reef Fanatic 250W Electronic Ballast Euro Reef CS5-2 Skimmer Pictures: Female Clown in her BTA's http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20004.jpg Acro Frag #1: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20005.jpg Acro Frag #2: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20006.jpg Acro Frag #3: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20007.jpg Acro Frag #4: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20009.jpg Tan Monti Cap: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20010.jpg Orange Monti Cap: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20011.jpg Purple Monti Cap: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20013.jpg Full Tank Shot: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/2004...9-28%20016.jpg Thanks to Jonathan for the frags, Beth for bringing them back and all the various other reefers that have inspired me and helped me along the way! |
Nice pictures, even though they don't do the tank much justice. You gotta be there to get the full experience :mrgreen: .

Haha, you make it sound like my tank has mystical powers or something... :eek: or it could be all the "kalk" in the air :mrgreen:
|
Kalk? Oh, you mean those little baggies of white stuff? :mrgreen: Yeah... maybe thats it :twised:
-Richer |
Its KALK! I SWEAR!! :drinking:
|
Between the baggies of white stuff and the intense grow-op lighting, it's a wonder more of us don't get put under surveillance... :mrgreen:
Looks great! |
:biggrin: I'm glad most of my neighbours know that I keep a reef tank.Unloading several mh fixtures and carrying zip-lock bags of kalk into my garage doesn't look to good,especially when you drive by at night and notice a bright glow comming from the basement :mrgreen:
|
watch out for the cops.. they mite think our ziploc bags of kalk may be for sniffing? hahaha
|
Harvey,
Love the picture of the clown!! Three thumbs up!! :mrgreen: |
How about an updated pic or two Harvey..?? :wink:
|
Love that bta. Very unusual coloring.

An Update
Alrighty, since people keep bugging me, I'll post some update pictures. The tank has been doing "ok." I've been having a terrible time with microbubbles (I think there is a pinhole leak where the pump faceplate joins the pump). As a result, I think some of my corals aren't as colorful as they use to be.
Random Acro Picture...see the Acro Crab?: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20004.jpg Blue Ridge Coral...the brown coral with the bright blue skeleton: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20006.jpg Clowns in their BTA's (now have 3 BTA's): http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20008.jpg Brown with baby blue tips and brown with green (use to be purple :sad: ) tips acros. In the background you can see my orange cap that is finally bouncing back after losing most of its tissue (oddly enough though, the polyps remained even after the tissue was gone): http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20009.jpg Side View, Acro, Acro Frag, Blue Ridge Coral, Monti Cap http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20010.jpg Brown with green tip (use to be purple tip) acro: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20011.jpg Red (turned green) Millipora from Jonathan: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20014.jpg Brown cap (use to be purple :sad:) with bright purple polyps: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20015.jpg New DIY skimmer in the works: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20012.jpg New pump and valves: http://members.shaw.ca/harvwong/11.1...1-16%20013.jpg |
I see you've gone BB... welcome to the bare side! :mrgreen:
-Richer |
Yeah, went Starboard just to see what all the hoopla was about. I actually quite like it this way. You really don't know how much your snails poop until you go BB. I can honestly say that I do notice much more polyp extension on my SPS though. That could be complete coincidence though.

Harvey,
Are those uniseals on the the DIT Skimmer?? |
Yep. 2 1" uniseals and 2 1/2" uniseals that I have to plug now since I changed my design.
|
It's amazing to see the corals change color that dramaticly! :eek:
Especially that red milli go to green! :eek: |
Where did you pickup the uniseals?
I have been looking for them and everytime I ask someone they don't have a clue what im talking about... :confused: I need a couple ½" ones. |
I have a pair of unused 1/2" ones that we can trade something for. I got mine from AquaticEcoSystems. That place sells everything...including clear PVC fittings!
|
Its unfortunate that I couldn't retain the original colors...looks like I have a lot of work to do water chemistry wise. :sad:
