Hello everyone. I decided I should make a tank thread.
I have a scratched up 75 gallon flat hex. Currently upgrading or changing tanks is not an option. Instead of doing that I am sinking money into getting better equipment for the tank. Once I have aquired all of my hardware I want I will find my perfect tank, or rather likely I will build it. I don't have my camera atm but I will share of pics I have taken recentlty and post for your viewing.
Yellow Cucumber I have had for 3 years
about as good of a close up as any camera I have can get.
candy canes had for 1.5 years started as 2 heads
Snowflake Moray Eel had for about a year
Chillin in an Xenia plot. The red bubble algae exploded in mny tank a while back and has choked out 1/2 the xenia oddly enough.
Open Brain coral frag. Looks to be part of a Welso open brain but still not 100% sure. I got this as a nickle sized frag about 2 years ago (size of a quarter or so inflated)
I haven't seen the skeleton in about 6 months expanded he is about 4 or 4.5 in across currently.
Acan lords.. purple green grey and some lavender in there also. very cool piece in person can't ever capture the colors with my point of sale cameras.
I also have a red orange teal acan lord but no good pics of it atm.
Today I received my Bubble Magus NAC5 Skimmer. It is breaking in right now.. got the flow dialed in best as I can for now. I am getting some medium colored green tea mix out of it so far. I am sure it will get better once I make the 20L sump I have designed (did not expect the skimmer for a few more days) right now its running in a temp 10g sump to break in. Will have to top off often until i get the new sump built. I hope to get to it in the next week if time permits.
Next purchase is a reactor to run carbon, and one for GFO. Hopefully this simple combination in the new sump will provide all the filtration I need.
Thanks for looking I will get more updated soon as I get ahold of a camera again. Wife is away at military training for her up coming deployment and took the camera with her. (gonna have to get a 2nd camera for sure...LOL)
