J Rog's 120 tech tank

Hi Everyone,

Trying to upload some recent pics of my tank but every time I try the pics come out either upside down or sideways.. But they are normal on my computer.. Any ideas as to why?

Pretty excited today. Just shipped out my radion gen 1's. Will be coming back to me as gen 3 pro's. ;)
 
Awesome! Really excited. I'm hoping there is a great improvement in color. I know they have come a long way since gen 1's :)
 
Definitely need to see an updated FTS! You've had some great additions since the last one. :)

Pathetic, I know.. lol hopefully over the next coming months I will have more going on in there ;) I did sell my RBT because it took up to much room and really was starting to move around to where it could sting corals.. It was really big and a beauty.. Rather have nice acros to look at though.. :)
 
Where to start with this update.. Some good news and some bad news.. First, the bad news.. I had my old Coralife MH combo light over the tank while my radions were being upgraded.. Well, the feet on one side of the light broke some time ago and I used a container that was around the same hight as the feet on the other side of the light so it was even. Worked great.. Thats until I decided to get a few nice frags on Sat and had to put them in the tank. I had to slide the light back a bit to get my arm in there to place the new coral. That went fine.. But when I had to slide the light back to the original position it slipped off of the container half of it sits on and booom! Half the light falls into the tank.. I freak out because everything was powered on and running.. Almost as soon as it hit the water I had my arms around it pulling it out and turned all the power off of the lights.. After freaking out for a while I cleaned up everything and just put my 2 reef brite LED strips over the tank so it would at least have something.. Everything in the tank seemed fine and normal after a couple of mins. But I noticed my Hawaiian flame wrasse seemed a little more stressed then the rest of the fish. The next day (sunday) I came home from hanging out with the fam all day and fed the fish. I noticed I didn't see the wrasse who was usually the first to come visit me in the front of the tank waiting on food.. After I fed everyone I started looking around the tank and notice him just above the sand bed behind a rock. When he saw that I spotted him he swam under a rock out of sight.. He did not look well and was discolored.. I didn't spot him all day yesterday.. So believe he swam under a rock and died.. He was my fav and had him for 2 years.. :cry: Not very happy at the moment.. Sooo the good news is I got my radions back today as gen 3 pros with 120 degree lenses and fan frame update. They look great but super bummed about my wrasse...
 
Ordered a frag pack last week from the coral kings. He is giving them some time to heal before shipping. Can't wait! Here is a pic of the pack
