jiffy · Jul 10, 2011

so ive changed up my aquascape, i wanted more holes in my rocks and wanted to start over with marco rock..

28g nano cube led hood(pro) wit extra stunner strip (plan on adding more)

inverts:
4 sexy shrimp
1 boxer crab
2 starfish
3 blue legs
100+ ciriths
4 turbos

plan on getting another boxer crab, my current one did have an egg sack but has since lost it.

inverts:
pom pom

cant get all 4 of the sexy shrimp together in a decent picture

i saved the 2 starfish from dieing on the beach at low tide.

my 2 new frags:

sympodium (i think i spelled that right?)

and ive had these carribean zoas before and they just glow! i hope i can keep them from melting... (this picture does them no justice)

I really like how you made it slope like you did. That gives you so much surface area for corals. Great job !!

thanks bro, maybe I'll just leave it alone.

Is all the rock leaning on the back wall? I would worry about dead spots back there if so. Otherwise the tank looks great!

yea they are all touching, I'm thinking about cutting the long rock in half on the bottom right.. and placing one half in the front as an island and the other to continue holding the top rock.

I cut the rock in half like I wanted, will post update pics tomorrow.

Love the natural look of the tank!!

Nice roock work. I believe that you may be happy with Marco rocks, but it will be close to what you already have. I ordered 100lbs (received 115 lbs), love it, but your rock looks close too it already. This is all in mind if you are ordering marco rocks (not already owning some). Nice work.

thanks bro

Those sexy shrimps are cool!! What do you feed them? Do you turn off circulation when you feed them?

revhtree · Jul 11, 2011

Very nice!! Like it a lot!

I've been feeding them frozen reef plankton once a week but I plan on switching to something else. I mainly feed my goby and some corals (rics, robusta, some of my larger palys) but they eat what comes there way. sometimes the pom pom comes out too..

thanks rev, posting pics of the new aquascape tomorrow.

salty gator: I bought these from FAOIS, it looked similar to Marco rocks so that's what I called them. I already got rid of the old liverock, the only piece I have left has the smaller clam on it.
