So as my adventure continued we ended up stopping at none other than OG II for the last 2 ATI Blue+ Bulbs they had in stock!!! SCORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Back home I dipped and acclimated my new corals.


HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

NO SPACE!!!! Wall to WALL corals..... Now that my Main tank is back in action I think its time to start moving stuff back into the big tank.. Even though the majority of all my SPS Are in the main tank I still do have a few frags hanging out in the frag tank awaiting Gluing. So..... This early morning update is for just that reason.... After this and a bit of cleanup... Time to start Gluing Frags.

Gotta go up the street to fish factory for the ATI bulbs. You were probably pretty close to me. I was just at Jay's a few weeks ago to pick up a reef tech monti. He has a great tank.

As to the hidden reef they have actually gone down hill over the last year or so. They used to be better.

Much smaller but a far better selection of fish and coral. Which doesn't say much. Im 15 min from both and I would go out of my way to go to AO and OG2

x2 the only reason I make it to HR is if im low on salt & we don't have a GB coming up by the time I need it.

Hidden Reef and The Fish Factory


Always go to both when I’m out there…..A right out of Hidden Reef, a left at the light, and a few miles down on the right….next to a go-go bar…. 3021 Veterans Highway, Bristol, PA 19007

Brandon, can’t you see the smiles on the fishes faces? :p


Look at the brightness difference, especially noted with the two Vortechs….first picture they are in partial darkness, the second, they have a brighter halo around them.

New Pics!

I've been playing around alot with photography and even picked up a portrait lens for my NikonD40 fr0om adorama that I have been playing around with. I was shooting the tank under the Blue's and this is what I came up with.

Great to meet you today! Your DT is insane in person man.. The colors were insane. And your other DT(frag tank) was packed with so much awesomeness. Quite a collection. Hope the chalices are doing as good. All frags acclimated and All polyps out and enjoying their new home. Thanks again.

It was GREAT meeting you Austin! I can't wait to put the chalices into my Display tank. I think my problem might be I run out of space hehe still lots of space for SPS though!
