just some pics of our tank stuff
 
These are pics of stuff from my hubby's tank. It's only a 10 gallon right now, but we're upgrading soon (we hope). he wants it to be a mostly corals only with a little rock and the clown and firefish (that keeps hiding lol)

this is his xenia and gsp

this is our clown and his purple tip anemone (he only recently started hosting, last 3 days maybe)

here's the entire tank. it looks really bare, and the anemone does some funky sucking itself in and then expanding beautifully thing. :)

how long has your tank been set up? and what lighting are you useing?

pandafishowner 03-15-2006 08:56 PM

the tank water had been established for about a year. we took it from the big tank. i can't remember what the light is though.

Is that 10g plumbed into a larger setup? Doesn't look like a lot of rock in there for denitrification.

pandafishowner 03-15-2006 09:37 PM

no, its a stand alone. they're not this weeks current pics. we do have more rock. 5lbs of it right now. we have 20lbs of uncured rock that we're working on getting cured right now :)

hey arent you addidias's gf?

TheReefGeek 03-15-2006 09:41 PM

Gotcha, good stuff.

Is your lighting good enough for your anemone?

pandafishowner 03-15-2006 10:08 PM

hahahahaha. No i'm not adidas's girlfriend. My husband is his best friend though, and we share a house :) He lives up, we live down :D Thanks for the giggle though.

and yes ReefGeek, the lighting is perfect :D It was under flourescents at the store

TheReefGeek 03-15-2006 10:33 PM

But what lighting are you using?

Just because it survived a few days or weeks in the fish store under fluorescent lighting does not mean it will have long term success unfortunatley.

pandafishowner 03-15-2006 10:44 PM

not sure what the flourescent light wattage is, think its around 100+ though? We got the anemone from Golds. we asked whether it would be okay under flourescent lighting we got it at the beginning of the month and our plan was for about a month we'd leave it in the 10g until we upgrade to a better tank and can set up our 250w MH light. i don't know who it was that served us though. he said it would be fine tho :) there were 2 of the anemones. there was a smaller on hubby wanted but he gave us this one (double the size the one we'd wanted and didnt notice til we got home). we're just waiting to find a good deal on the type of tank we want while our rock cures and we can put it in :)
