FTS? Nice build bro. Did you make your stand or purchase it from a dealer?

 

[thewackyreefer]

Stand was purchased with the tank from Lee Mar. Not bad for the price.

Here's a quick FTS I just took with my iPhone. Just got done re-scaping the tank a couple hours ago so it's still a little cloudy and coral is everywhere.

Looking nice and clean. That frag almost looks like a tenius. A green and purple one

Thanks guys, considering adding a little more height on the left side but I want to allow room for growth up top.

You're tellin me, it all looks so bare. I can't wait for it to grow out, but I know when it does I'll want to start from scratch again (or add another tank)!

I'll see if I can get a better FTS with the Canon today, the iPhone camera just doesnt cut it.

Shot and edited this in about 5 min. on my iPhone, eh.

Any suggestions on removing mini-nems from a rock? I've got a couple I'd like to relocate and I don't want to do any harm to them.

ice cube the foot and when a portion of it comes up push the cube under and walla:cold:

Interesting! I'll have to give that a try and report back.

Since I started the tank with almost 100% dry marco rock (and two rocks from my previous setup) I feel like I don't have a whole lotta "life" in my tank. I don't see any worms, bristle stars or anything. Any ideas on what I can do to introduce some of these specimens to my tank? Anyone got a bag of "life" they wanna send my way? lol

Reef Nutrition Tigger Pods, I believe ORA offers Reef Pods in a space age looking silver bag with a screw top on the end like a bag of wine! My LFS gets them in from time to time.

 

[thewackyreefer]

Nice, I'm pretty sure Vivid stocks them but I've never looked into them. I'll have to check em out.

Decided i'm going to give the Warner ecoBAK pellets a try. Picked up a reactor from Avast tonight!

 

[thewackyreefer]

Started running the Warner EcoBak pellets (~500 ml) yesterday in an Avast MR.

Noticed this morning the tank is pretty cloudy, which I've read should clear up within about 72 hours or so. Some of my SPS and Zoas/Palys look a little PO'd, I don't think it's anything to worry about though. I'm very curious to see how my fuge reacts to the pellets. I don't have a lot of macros but I do have some good sized magroves that I've had for a while now, so I'll keep an eye on them.
