My 240 Cube

I picked up two new corals last week. I got a very large hammer around the size of a volleyball and a large purple acro.

Here are some pictures.

Here is a new full tank shot as well.

Nice job Tom! I see you've already started sharing that purple acro... Very nice looking tank! Looks like you've got some really nice pieces in there.

Thanks Dave,

A couple pieces broke off while moving it. The coral has a touch of STN and I am not sure why. I am going to try a coral RX dip and see if that helps

Thank you,

I have been practicing a lot with the camera lately. There is still so much to learn

So in the end do you think it was worth it that you set everything up? I love the coral placment andhow its devided.

Man that looks great! I edited it and fixed the percent sign in your first pic for ya!

 

[goat585]

Yes, I am completely happy that I set the tank up. I had 3 saltwater tanks setup on separate systems and when I got this tank I moved everything into the new system. There are challenges with big systems but I find this system to be less work than the my three previous systems combined.


Thanks for the comments. Things are finally starting to really take off.

Well I finally broke down and bought a controller. I bought and apex with two extra EB8's. So far I am really happy with it. It was fairly easy to get up and running.

I also took a picture of my rbta with my cinnamon clown fish. They are a young pair that are in one of my 30 gallon tanks. I like the photo because they looking at me like don't even think about coming close to my anemone.

Here are the some latest pictures of the tank. I have not done to much to it. Most of my time has been spent raising clown fish lately. I added a couple of corals otherwise I am just letting everything grow.

Here's a couple of new ones. I did change the reflector on the tank. I switched from a lumenbright reflector to a large lumenmax reflector with DIY LED supplementation on the reflector. The light spread looks to be much more even with the new reflector. The LED's at a touch more actinic to the tank which I really like. I plan to tweek it a little more but so far I am happy with the results
