Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
We have had that big scoly for maybe 2 months. It actually has three mouths on it and it will probably split into two down the road which would be cool. I target feed them with Fauna Marin LPS pellets every few weeks or so during water changes. They really go nuts for that food which is...
Tank is being delivered a week from today so things are coming along nicely. Here are some pics of the fish room.
This will be a water change tank, but for now everything from the 57g is in here:
This is where the frag tank is going to go:
With the big build hitting a couple of snags, this tank is still running so I wanted to get some pics up of some things I have not taken pics of before:
Space invader pectinia, grab a frag of this if you can find it, it is amazing:
My pickup from cherry corals:
Classic Rastas:
Other scoly...
A FTS with the LEDs
Linkia Star and yes that limb is regrowing:
So here are some shots of the dendro that grew amazingly, almost died off, and is now sprouting a bunch of tiny heads:
Terrible pic, but my awesome goby:
Lighting: You are going to need another unit, one radion is not going to cover 4 feet of space. It is really up to you what you want to get but realize if you don't get another radion, the tank could look dramatically different where the two different lights hit. You could probably play with...
Thread moved.
I am still slowly building out my system but coming to the end. I did the same thing, bought things in little bunches and tried to get them through group buys and on sale. Did you get the skimmer collection unit from Reef Octopus as well with the auto shut off? Really is a...
You might want to give that torch a little more room around it. They can extend much beyond what we see them do. I love the gold torch (ours is only one head at this point) but they are still torches.
I have the 24 inch in my one fixture and the 36 inch bulb in the other (24 inch is 5 bulbs 36 inch is 6 bulb). Honestly it is hard to see with the naked eye because you are going form roughly 12k to 14k which is tough to see. I just like the way the corals look under the coral plus bulb.
Yeah you basically need to have them on the sandbed and probably in some shade if you want to keep those colors. I was in pretty much the exact situation, bought some nice rainbows from WWC and put them under my AI LEDs. They both turned orange with no other colors. Now they are puffy and...
This is where reefer logic comes into play. "Honey with the current light fixture, I have to replace the bulbs every 6 months which adds up. Also it is going to make the tank look nicer if I upgrade and I want the tank to look good for you. We would actually be saving money by upgrading."
No, just wanted to throw it up to help out a fellow club. That is quite a hike for us and Nikki is arriving from LA at about 2 am tonight/tomorrow so the last thing she will want to do it travel.
One is wireless, as in it will sinc with other mps so they all run together. I have run a mp10 on my 45 cube but that is a 2x2 tank. I am not sure with the lenth of a 40b if that will be enough. This is where an mp20 would probably be perfect excpet they don't make those anymore. A mp40...
