CMcNeil's Elos mini(dialup beware)

[cmcneil]

ive been collecting corals for my elos mini for a few months now and i now have just about everthing i could ever want coral wise.this nano is loaded with some choice SPS and LPS.most of what i have came from local reef keepers with the exception of some nice SPS frags i got from WWC and reefpets.as of now i have approx 25 SPS frags,15 acans,2 scolys,and various other LPS.my tank is lit by a 24 bulb reefledlights.com deluxe kit(18 royal blues and 6 cool whites).growth has been nice on everything and my colors are popping to say the least.so without anymore rambling here are the pics.i have alot of pics to share so dialup users beware :D

Thank you for doing that,what did I do wrong that the first pics weren't showing up?

Incredible stuff man!! A beautiful little tank with beautiful corals, can't beat that!

It is actually a VB forum problem, they are working on a fix. Basically the percentage sign doesn't show up in the first pic. If you post the pic's in your reply but hit preview post first it should work.

Very nice! Love all the acans. Heck of a collection to start off with. Very jealous!

 

[cmcneil]

Thanks everyone for the compliments,I have been collecting these corals for months to stock this tank up.
Rich,I do still post on the other forum but like it here more so don't post there as much anymore.
Radreef,I love the red/green striped acans too.I got almost all of my acans from a great LFS we have for $20-30 for 3-4 head frags.
Tabasco1,I never was an acan guy because the stores only sold colonies for $200-300.once they started selling frags I began scooping them up at record pace lol.

right side

im well aware that the hippo isnt a good fish for this tank but he is only 1.25" long and will be sold in a couple of months when he grows a little.i had him wheen i downsized and figured he was small enough to keep for 2-3 months.

lets try this again
