[BigFeesh]

This is not my official tank thread but thought I would show my month and a week old saltwater tank. (this is my first sw tank)

Inhabitants- chalk basslet
Inverts-2 peppermint shrimp
Corals- all Lps
Xmas favia
2 acans
Lavender mushroom(I'm not to fond of:squigglemouth: )

Paly/zoas: magicians, red people eater
And my newest addition a mummy eye chalice !

Eventually: a pair of ORA snowflake clowns
Ricordea garden
Chalices
Some more zoas and palys
Frogspawn or torch coral
A clam
Maybe a Monti and an acro


Stock equipment except not running the carbon biocube tray. I have carbon filled media bag instead and also have filter floss over the tray in comp two.

Equipment that I will be soon getting:
Tunze 9002 skimmer
And a LED lighting system from reefkoi.

Nice, looks like you have yourself a little collection going on already after just a month so so. Those Magicians will look great if you can grow a big colony of them.

 

[BigFeesh]

Yea I love the magicians the big one is like the size of a nickel growing like crazy ! Started with one polyp 3 weeks ago and now has a big a medium and one more is coming in.
And does anyone have an id for the mini colony of zoas/palys? Well if it has one.

 

[BigFeesh]

Maybe not a nickel a little smaller haha
Can't edit posts of my iPad sorry

[BigFeesh]

Looking good! Do you have just the daylights on or is that how it always looks, I guess with it being leds I figured it would be a bit more blue. I got to get me some magicians.

 

[BigFeesh]

Oh these are the stock lights on the bc so yes these are the day lights ! I will be getting LEDs soon haha
The tank is a little different now iv added 4 rics and some nuke greens palys
A bunch of corals coming in soon from sexy corals !
Iv also recently added my tunze with the intank custom cup and an intank media rack.

Great looking biocube. Nice choice on the ORA snowflake clowns. They will look nice in there. I cant wait to see pics of the coral you get from SC. Are you going to do DIY led's?

 

[BigFeesh]

No I'm getting reefkoi evolutions 100 watt 20k and I can't wait for the sc corals either I got some sexy stuff coming in! And snowflakes are not the clowns il probably get , il either get a pair of black ice/smores or premium picassos! I can't wait!

 

[BigFeesh]

And thank you for the kind words!

 

[Alattner]

i like your rock work. the cove look is always my favorite but i have heard its hard to get good flow in the back of the cove. had any problems like that?

 

[BigFeesh]

Thank you it's a little different from the pictures but to help the flow problems I added a koralia nano 250gph at the back corner of the aquarium (right where the fish is in its pic is where it is there is a a tunnel running from left side of the tank to the right, I will try to put up more pics giving more detail) I plan on adding some dendros to the cave as well :bigsmile:

 

[fsu1dolfan]

Nice looking pics!!! Cant wait to see the evolution light on your tank...should make a huge difference!!

 

[MimicOcto8]

excellent start big feesh! looking forward to the evolution light

 

[Fragtastic Reef]

Tank looks awesome! This is your first SW tank, sure dont look like it. Nice job!

 

[BigFeesh]

Thanks man ! All these guys up on the site have indirectly taught me how to reef! haha and books help ! Sexy stuff should be here this week. I'm thinking of switching over to pellets with a once a week treat of mysis because I have a little cyano problem and I feed mysis everyday but I see little shrimp particles than are uneaten! Any suggestions on a pellet food brand?

 

[funeman86]

ocean nutrition they have a few different sizes get the smallest pellets nano pellets everything can eat it ive even fed it too my zoas they love it
