This tank was awesome. Is it just me or did the average tank look a lot better in 2008?
They really did - Coral Frags used to be much bigger than they are now though. I mean, the average colony we find for sale is around a similar size frags once were.

Plus most ppl used real liverock then too which made for more interesting aquascapes and better biodiversity. Plus tanks looked a lot more natural then too which is the aesthetic I prefer. These days most tanks just look like a black light display in the back of a hippie pot shop lol.

I love looking at tanks that were started with real live rock. This is how I started mine (Although I don’t plan on mixing a bunch of coral).

Here's my 3.7 gallon shroom tank. It didn't start out as a shroom tank haha. There's a nice little m/m carpet nem, a neon toadstool in the back, and a electric green shroom that's being tormented by the red shrooms sadly.

Inverts are a pair of sexy shrimp, a nassarius, trochus, some asterina, couple small hermits, couple small ceriths, and a healthy pod pop.

I've got a couple small limpets that I've just noticed recently, tank has been up a year.

Equipment is 50 watt controllable heater, reef glass skimmer, ato lite, kessil 80, and a syncra return pump.

I run nano packets of chemipure blue and dose MB7 at water changes. I change a gallon a week. Top off is about a pint to pint and a half per week.

I feed LRS or frozen mysis once or twice a week, mostly to the nem and the leftovers feed the rest of the tank. I lightly feed phyto and plankton on alternating days once or twice a week. The occasional shrimp pellet here and there. It's way easy to degrade the water quality if you aren't judicious with your feeding.

I enjoy this little tank on the days I work from home.

That shot with the Meleagris in the back is stunning.
