Thanks for the kind words mate!I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Your tank looks amazing! I like your light choice!
Man your tank would look awesome with black sand..
Haha you guys might be onto something!Black sand !!! I agree
Looking good Matt.Update
Its been a little while since my last update, the tank has been happily cruising and maturing up until this past week. Nothing new has been added for a little over a month. Partly as I'm trying to stock it slowly but also for the fact i haven't found time to get to a LFS. Work and life have been quite hectic since the tank went up so hopefully over the coming months I can give it a bit more TLC.
I hit a green algae stage on the sandbed about a month ago and its still persisting. Hopefully it passes in another month or two.
The only issue I've ran into is this past week my two monti's and echinata all suffered burnt tips and as of yesterday the echinata is a goner. All other acro's seem unaffected. Not sure what caused this as all were looking very healthy a week before and the usual suspect of high or rapid change in Alk never happened to my knowledge. Alk's been low but stable at around 6dKh.
Thanks mate, haha yes he or she (we've named her Colette) definitely does.Looking good Matt.
Looks like the yellow kole tang has a nice green carpet to graze on.
Some extra tangs and cuc will clean it in a short time.
I love the dimensions on this tank. It's what drew me towards it years ago seeing it online.How do you like the tank dimensions? I am looking at going custom with the same footprint
Speaking of scene's, where are the updates??I love the dimensions on this tank. It's what drew me towards it years ago seeing it online.
The depth just makes it so much better in my opinion to scape and literally add scale to the scene.
Haha when there's something good to update on!Speaking of scene's, where are the updates??
I installed a spears gate valve today on the overflow into the sump. Can't believe how quiet it is now. You can see the gate valve in the middle of the red pvc. Get this done and you will be amazed.
Thanks @Janci the fixture is 8 inches above the waterline. You may be right though as the tank is on the shallow side.Matt, you might check the light output of that fixture by means of a PAR meter.
Those lamps maybe have to be a little higher to lower the intensity.
Interesting, maybe there is something to it?It took me a year to get my tank to grow sps with dry rock
