Thanks Marko, It is still a young setup so we r taking it slow with adding corals and stuff but so far so good!!

MarkoD 07-14-2013 11:39 PM

You should try and make a wall of rock on the drop off. To completely hide tha back glass

Thanks Denny! its coming along eh! i will keep posting pics as it progresses the tank shape is wierd and its hard to photograph from different angles, but ill keep working on it. Hope to get some more sps as soon as the tank fully establishes itself.

If you want some rubble rock for the bottom I have a full cooler at the old shop your more than welcome to some to cover it up if you go that route :) I have some frags for ya too when your ready to add some :)

Sweet, thanks buddy, saw the new store today looks like its going to be awesome!! th drop is the one place we havent quite figured out what we want to do yet. Its a work in progress. We were even thinking maybe a DSB on the bottom with garden eels.

Thats a unique tank! I like it.

L-shaped and drop? Awesome! :D

That is some wicked fantastic looking live rock too.

whynotdropit 07-16-2013 04:16 AM

thanks for reposting those pics! i had no idea how to get them up like that.

whynotdropit 07-16-2013 04:20 AM

Ya the L shape and the drop have posed some challenges on getting the right flow in there. With my powerheads and controller trying to get a wave going has been a challenge but have got it dialed in now!

No problem, just easier to look at that way. All you do is click on the yellowish box with a mountain pic on the top of message box and copy and paste the link in the pop up.

Cool set up :thumb:

Your welcome :biggrin: and all I have is too many tanks and an expensive power bill :lol: My fave tank right now is actually my small 2.5g pico tank.

I saw this in the shop, it looked nice there.... Even nicer now that it is operational.

Great job to all!!!

whynotdropit 07-17-2013 04:35 AM
