KrazyKuch's & Michika's 180Gal Tank Build

[michika]

My tank and I are back in the disagreement phase of things. I want one thing, it does another.

The crappy
- my foxface died, and I am heartbroken about it.
- about 80% of my new and existing frags RTNed due to sand
- My rock is covered in sand because of the sandsifting goby
- One of my clams jumped from its perch, and now I'm concerned that it will not get enough light in its new location.
- I need to turn on the dehumidifyer

The not so crappy
- 30g water change done yesterday with the DD Salt
- Added on two reactors, one of carbon media, and one of nitrate absorbing media
- Moved the brown cap, and did some re-arranging
- Ponape birdsnest survived
- The sand looks nicer

The still to do:
- Buy new MH bulbs
- Clean the reflectors and existing bulbs
- More WCs
- Fix/dial back in the reactors
- Have a heart to heart with the tank
- Win the lotto

Some photos to brighten this page up.

This is the corner in which the bristletooth tang likes to do its business. It goes here and only here....


How a large portion of my rock looks now that the goby has done its job


Old additions with some new growth




What the skimmer pulled out recently...I called dibs on not emptying that sucker


Recently re-located caps. The brown one has a blanched part because of the sand that settled on it, so it found a new home.




Some of the remaining frags

looking good Catherine!

Love how you've mounted the green cap...that'll look deadly as it grows....thought you were getting rid of the xenia though?

[michika]

I'm still working on its eviction, notice has certainly be served though! Its time for it go!

There's something weird going on with your SPS. They are different colours and there are these weird little tentacles coming out of them.

[michika]

Definitely weird! I guess I should trade them all in for those rare white arctic corals hun?
