Well, I got the 20l tank for the sump from Olivier! Once I get the tank from Mr. Bax, I will be well on my way to the mini-upgrade. Still considering lights for it. The center brace complicates things a little though. One MH pendant seems like it would cast a shadow. Then again, we noticed that...
I PM'd whitebear about it and she said I could have it but I was interested in it for a tank I am going to set up. It sounds as though you could use it more than me since your tank is already up and running. If you see this whitebear, you can give this to Exoticreef. I am sure something else...
If we can arrange something I am planning to go to the meeting next weekend down south. So is Mr. Explorer Brian. Maybe we can being a few down? Brian?
I would rather it without the baffles and all in it. Olivier has offered a 20 that he has. If it is a 20l I will get it from him since he is a 30 second drive from my house. I will let you know well before the next meeting what the deal is. Thanks a lot for you offer!
Well, it seems that...
That's what I'm thinking, although I may get impatient!
Very tempting Picasso! Is it already set up as a sump? You're down in South Jersey right? Will you be at the next meeting?
Thanks all! So it sounds like I have my plan! Was also thinking of a 20L for the sump too. Maybe even a 29 for a bit of extra depth but I will have to look at stand heights before I make that decision. A tank drilling party would be awesome Brian! Maybe a bit complicated since the tank you want...
So, I am thinking of a small upgrade. With the $1 per gallon sale at Petco I have been thinking of going to a 40b. Now, I know what you're thinking. 40b isn't much of an upgrade over a 30g. Well, my 30g is an AIO so I am losing at least 5 gallons with the back chamber. Plus, throw in the room I...
Thanks Nikki! There are a lot more to go too...
In other news, after testing my phosphates yesterday, they seem to be coming down quite a bit. The high point was 52ppm and they were down to 19ppm. I guess the combo of all the things I have been trying have worked. Thanks for all your help...
So, here are a few corals.
First, here's the Acan I won in the raffle at the last meeting:
Next, picked this one up from Feng after the meeting. I have pretty high hopes for this one once it colors up:
Picked this one up from OGII when they were having their $20 SPS frag. It's pretty tough to...
Anytime Brian! Better make it fast though. That $1 per gallon sale is calling my name, I'm starting to get the hankering for a 40b!
Good eye! It's actually the Chinese version (Shin Mao)but they are the same thing. I really like my little tank!
So, here it is, take 2!!!
First, a few FTS' from over the past 4 months:
2-27-2011 - Stock PCs and all
3-5-2011 with the new "rock" that was later returned
3-28-11 in the algae phase
4-2-11 After I realized that the halide bulb I had was a 10k I switched it out for this 14k
6-27-11 Here it...
Really nice little set up you have there! Like the stocking plans too. Once you're up and running I have some zoos and palys you're welcome to. Where are you in NJ?
Thanks David! Mike's right, the tank looks great! We're going to have to do it again soon so everyone can see all the new additions from Fengs.
Oh, and here are the "gobies" you got from Feng:

OK, I will do everything you suggested and see how it goes.
The chaeto is tumbling around back there. It gets plenty of spill over light from the DT halide pendant too. I split it up every couple of weeks and throw some out.
Thanks again
