Phone Video Experiment 325 Display

[Dog Boy Dave]

Well I think I can get a You tube video to work now. Here is a recent video of my 325 display. [video=youtube;lJ0toB6hfXE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJ0toB6hfXE&feature=youtu.be[/video]

Absolutely beautiful tank and fish selection, Emperor angel don't nip at your corals?

 

[Dog Boy Dave]

No he does not nip. He bites about a quarter of an inch off at a time. He also moves frags as do many of the others. Big tank, big corals. he grew up in the tank with the corals and didnt bother them when he was small and in his juvenile phase. As he grew and became much more aggressive the corals have been able to keep up. He is a great pet but i wouldnt recomend an Emeperator in anything but the largest tank.

dont know if the default for those videos is HD but they both can be set to display that way. The second video is some of my Golden Angel. hard to photograph. I think he sees the range finder pulse from the camera and hides when i get it out.

That is awesome! It looks so deep! What are the dimensions?

 

[Dowtish]

Awesome Tank and fish! thanks for sharing. Love the Angels.

 

[Dog Boy Dave]

The tank is 60 inches wide by 27 inches deep by 48 inches front to rear. The big stag in the middle is close to 3 feet accross.

I have seen this tank in person, it is absolutely astounding. Could not find the main threat for this tank if there is one, maybe someone could direct me.

Anyways I went over to Dave's last night and checked out his tanks. They are the most natural looking reef I have seen anywhere thus far. Corals growing on corals, competing, adapting, and for the most part THRIVING. He has a literally uncountable amount of species of coral, all sps. His fish are very old for what we consider old (im talking 5-10 years! for some of them!). It looks like Dave stole 325 gallons of coral/rock/water/fish from off a reef in the wild and plopped it in his living room! His frags are absolutely gorgeous. As a new comer to this hobby I am proud to say I am reinvigorated with interest (if I wasn't already addicted ha ha) after seeing this tank. This gives me a goal to work toward as a hobbyist myself and being as young as I am (24) I have to say he has quite an accomplishment growing in his living room. Just thought I'd give my respects and 2 cents about the tank in the video above.

That is one SEXY looking piece of ocean.

I can't believe that there are so many different species of SPS.

I might have to transition from LPS to an SPS tank.

Good job.

Updated Video with full LED after 60 days

Well it seems that I have finally gotten my phone to download an HD video straight to You-tube. Lets see if i can get it linked here. This is a quick shot i tool earlier today so I could practice the up load thing. I will take some more of the system and try to get some decent video of the lights as well. Thanks for the Kind words. Eric, it was a pleasure to meet you in person the other night. Its fun to share the old system with someone with some understanding of the hobby.

This should be in HD but if not its probably worth turning it to that setting.

Amazing!!!

 

[o2manyfish]

Looks fantastic. One day I am going to try a Navarchus in my tank and use your tank as my justification. Everything looks great.

Did you ever wish that you could have all of the fish that you've ever wanted in a reef tank? Yeah. This guy did too. Friggin' amazing.

 

[bkoppes]
