Artificial reef and corals? - Page 2

lol!

Those ruins aren't mine, but I do like them. What I like most is that he has them in a reef tank which is not very common, and then he posts the pic in his signature which shows up on every one of his posts. I like it. I'm sure he likes it, and I'm sure he doesn't care what others think about it.

I surely would not put that in my tank. yuck

but hey...it's only a matter of personnal taste.

I love sponges, real or artificial.

I kept it for two reasons:

1. My sister gave it to me on my birthday and that's more important than getting a "yuck" from someone for keeping it.
2. And its gonna look good when it blends in coralines, zoas and monti caps take over it like those artificial reefs in the ocean

Like I said, matter of personnal taste. I say yuck to coffee, can't stand that smell of it, hate the taste of it with a passion, yet so many people are addicted to it and can't start their day without it.

I never liked anything that looked "human" made in a tank. No matter what it is. I think it just look out of place and unatural spoiling the scenery. Yet it does have a point, it make the scene in your tank look larger in scale.

You could have a chalice grow on it, or a turbinaria.

Thought I'd drop in to see how this thread has been going. Now Daniella, we put up with a lot from you, but insulting coffee is going too far. If I wasn't enjoying coffee right now, I'd have to ban you for that. Don't do it again.

(I know that since you're French, you can take the joke

)

P.S. That ruin is damn ugly -lol

I am at the end of this forum... what was it about anyways?

This got seriously hi-jacked.

Myka.... I am interested in hearing if you found anything out from the staff about how they clean the artificial corals.

I personally think it would be a hassle to maintain... however, after the massive loss of coral I experienced this year.... it is growing on me.

They usually look so fake though.
