![]() Here are some pics of the facade and how its held on for Oxy
Magnets are rare earth magnets and you can get them from Lee Valley. They come with a receiver that you counter sink into the wood and then the magnet slides in. In this one you can see how the magnet is counter sunk into the wooden panel. They site pretty much flush with the wood surface and then attach to the stand from here. ![]() Untitled by badAZZlars, on Flickr This pics shows the edge how the front panel extends over the side panels. All panels are independent of each other. ![]() Untitled by badAZZlars, on Flickr Pics of the back of the front main panel. It had 6 magnets holding it in place two on each side and two that attach to the center brace of the stand. ![]() Untitled by badAZZlars, on Flickr |

![]() Just a quick update on a few new changes with the tank. I added a royal gramma and a copper band butterfly last weekend. Brings the fish count up to 9, i'll probably only add a few more and call it good. I had an abundance of tube worms in my tank but the copper band just keeps sucking them out of their tubes i'm sure they'll all be gone in a couple weeks.
I also started to dose a couple of zeovit products yesterday. Coral Vitalizer and Xtra special. Most of my corals look pretty much the same as the last pictures I posted so I will be using those as base line to see if the zeo has much of an affect on their growth and color. |

![]() I was wondering how your frags are colouring/have coloured up and if you can noticed any effect of using the zeovit products yet.

I think at the very least I would continue to dose the coral vitalizer as food but am currently unsure about the xtra. I haven't been using it very long yet though so need to give it more time before I come to a conclusion. Growth is going pretty well with most of the frags but a few have stalled out after they encrusted their frag discs. |
