jorjef 06-26-2011 12:52 AM

Nope, I emptied it twice of fish. They were a PITA. I have another tank with fish.

that is one sexy looking tank buds I like it i love the feather dusters too

I like it, nothing wrong with just inverts. I'm honestly surprised there aren't more like it, actually.

Excellent! I've been jokingly threatening to do that for a few years. Fish in one tank and coral in another with a shared sump. No nipping, no tipping and no burying!

Exactly, and for wow factor corals are much more facinating to the non aquarium people. To them a fish is a fish, once they get past the bright colors and odd shapes it's still just a fish. Show them how Duncans, plates, cats eye and brains eat and they have their noses pressed against the glass like little kids. Make the dusters and Coco worms retract and wait for the gasp!! Quick moving Sea stars and a surfacing Narcissus snails complete the show. oh ya and tell them " if this coral touchs that coral it will start to poison it' the talking stops and the stareing into the tank goes on and on..lolol

Nice reef, good healthy selection of corals. What size is your tank? I also perfer fishless, they can be a pita in a tank with beautiful corals.

Thanks, it's a 40 gallon bow front. That's another reason it's fishless, I needed to keep the bio load to a minimum because I run it with no sump and a little Tunze 9002 skimmer. All the "cool" fish are either non coral freindly or too large for this tank. Just a note for people just getting into this hobby, you don't absolutly need a mega watt light system for your tank, just be mindful when you choose what to put in it.....this tanks runs on 48 watts of T5

I think you are on to something JOR Hmmmmmmmmmmmm acans connected to a tank no more shrimp bugging them . Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

jorjef 06-26-2011 04:34 PM

lol when I had cleaner shrimp in there I always fed them first, they would hang off the end of the turkey baster and eat away. Still the little basterds couldn't get enough and stole from everything....out the door they went!!!

jorjef 04-22-2012 01:58 AM

Couldn't get a decent FTS so I made a sub par phone video. Not sure why it went choppy and adding audio would have required more patience than I was willing to spend..anyways


Ya can't figure out how to post this without giving access to my whole photo bucket account....okay maybe some other day...lol

fishytime 04-22-2012 02:34 AM

jorjef 04-22-2012 02:36 AM

Thanks, I guess I could have cleaned the glass a little....Ignore the two hour difference from " I'm work'in on it " to the time I actually got the video posted..:redface:
