Helllooooo back from the dead.

Alright, so CBB died, Ember Blenny Died and Kole has been moved to a different tank. Kind of let the tank get out of hand in terms of, y'know, NOT doing anything too it for a couple weeks, so it pretty much looks like butt. I did pick up this fantastic piece of zoa godness yesterday though, and tonight, after a good cleaning, I'll take pics of everything else. I'm thinking of getting rid of the lighting unit that's there and switching either to all T5s, or at the very least pimping out the current fixture. New Ballasts, new reflectors, new bulbs...the works.

Anyways, here's the zoa rock:


Before the Great Cleanse of April 2009 (I know, I know, it's disgusting):

John (lobsterboy) hooked me up with some amazing frags (although some of them are so big I'd call them mini-almost-could be really soon- colonies.. and now that they've been in the tank over night...I need to rearrange the rockwork (I know Tony, I know) in order to accomidate what's in there already, what I'm picking up from the Wicked Frag order today and what I'm getting from Greg (Snappy) on Monday.

I'll also be adding a vortech mp40 (first generation) in a bit here which leaves me with this for flow:

Koralia 4: 1200gph
3x Koralia 3: 2550gph
Sedra Return (4.5ft head): 625gph
Vortch mp40 (if run full blast) 3000gph

Total: 7375gph divided by display tank volume (90) gives me roughly 82X rotation in the tank....hoooooooooora!

Newly Revamped tank. Added quite a few frags...will add some more still from Snappy on Monday. After that, NO MORE until things start to grow in. At least that's what I'm saying now anyways....
