My 125 Tank Build

[Reefscape]

The tank looks lovely...good work..And yes, shrimp are very hard to raise in a community tank...

Well another rite of passage has happened to the system. I have my diatom outbreak, can't wait for this to pass.

Tank Update

So here are some pics of my tank a new addition..my 5 blue green chromis. Being the least expensive fish I have purchased, they sure are fun to watch. Changed the aquascape somewhat and there are lots of caves, and passages for the fish to swim through and around. My porcelain crab molted but I can't find him, just his shell.

In the pics are two frag racks that I made from leftovers from different pumps and filters...plus the eggcrate

Hope you like the pics.

Looking superb Al....great work, and will be better once the diatoms have passed...

 

[Almondsaz]

Thanks Reefscape. I am looking forward to be being done with the diatoms, but kind of comforting to know it is just one of the predicted phases and things are on track.

13 July Update-------LOTS OF PICS

Well it has beena while so I thought that I would post a few new pictures. I wish I could get rid of the brown algae on the sand.

Looks good man. How long have you had the Meleagris Leopard?

 

[Almondsaz]

Schigara: thanks. That is a Halichoeres melanurus "Pinstriped Wrasse" and I haven't had him too long. I used to have a Leopard Wrasse(Macropharyngodon meleagris) Female and had her for 7 months or so until she met my death anem (RBTA) that got her one day when it moved and she buckled over and didn't make it. I am now hunting for another female LW.
