Dez' Tank Journal

[Eduardo]

Cute picture. Sandy laughed pretty hard when she saw this. Sandy also told me, "I'd look at your aquarium too if it looked like Dez's".

It's been a while since I updated so here goes:

Flame angel that I got a little while ago. Does not nip at anything....yes!


Full tank shot - living room side


Full tank shot - den side


Blue polyped birdsnest from Snappy showing growth


Peaches 'n cream digi (From Lobsterboy) and Superman digi


Gorgonian (willing to frag for Edmontonians if interested)


White polyped digi


Some sort of acro

[lastlight]

Love the contrast between the flame angel and the SPS in that shot Dez. New avatar too. Seems to be the running theme tonight lol.

I dig that digi and the gorg. Might have to roadtrip it one day with a bucket of chaetoBalls and do you some sweet sweet TRADING.

Which Digi did you like - the white polyp, or superman or peaches 'n cream?

Well, if you get that Brazilian, then there might be some sweet trading. But, too bad I don't have a fuge.... Maybe it's better you don't export those green balls....you need them more than I do.

Yeah the white polyped one =)

More pictures

Pokerstar Monti - base already encrusted on rock - nice growth


This was a brown frag from a friend - turned pink and TONS of growth. Doesn't look like a frag anymore.


Blue Sponge - I've had this for a while and showing growth


Green Birdsnest - grown lots!


I think this is some kind of poccilipora - was quite a bit whiter when I got it, now the colour seems a bit richer


Purple Acro frag that only had 2 branches when I got it


Another acro frag showing good growth


Snappy's Bird of Many colours showing lots of new growth tips


My unknown "Superman" milli that was originally smooth/brown:


Sorry about the dark pictures. I think the exposure or something was too far one way (I know nothing about cameras). Enjoy and thanks as always for looking.
