[aresgod]

wow, thats alot of aptasia!

 

[Mushroomman]

Thanks for reminding me in all honesty usually its not as viewable... when I juice.

 

[kevin4052002]

Nice yellow.

 

[Mushroomman]

Still going strong. Eats like a champ.

 

[Lorna]

just make sure to give him seaweed........

 

[Mushroomman]

'Course. Been supplimenting it ever since I got the coral beauty a year ago.

 

[Lorna]

I knew you'd be on it......I can't get my cb or tang to eat seaweed for anything.....tried about 4 kinds of dried including nori.....I did see my tang picking at it but I think that is because I haven't been able to buy spinach....which he was eating but wouldn't touch the seaweed.....I will keep putting the seaweed in daily...maybe they will get the hint

 

[Mushroomman]

I see. Im glad I dont have that problem.... my tank is spotless now, not that it was ever bad but I had a patch of hair algae, once the tang went in he devoured it. Pretty neat.

 

[Mushroomman]

This little guy was lookin good. Slowing down alot now after this. Possibly one more fish down the road a bit.

Full tank shot

 

[kevin4052002]

Lookin great!

 

[YahooFishKeeper]

looking cool. what kind of lights do you have again? and are you ever going to have them the same again?

 

[OCCFan023]

very cool. Full tank is a very interesting with the Dual lights. Yellow tang was hiding though lol

 

[Mushroomman]

I happen to like my lights the way they are . 150 watt 10,000K left side, right side 250 watt 14,000K metal halides. When I upgrade tank in future I plan on staggering 10 and 14 Ks to get the growing power of the 10 (towards back) with the color of the 14(in front)

Yeah, I wanted a pic with all fish out in the open but thats as hard as biting off a piece of my driveway using my teeth.

 

[OCCFan023]

yea saltwater fish are annoying as hell to photgraph (well to get that picture you really really want atleast)

Those fish are fast coach, yea you already said that... ahah

 

[Mushroomman]

Update: cant find the gramma anywhere... just kind of dissapeared.

Picked this guy up a week or 2 ago doing great. Might try to put together a pair or school of them. (hey they are cheap...)

The tank is a bit clouded up due to some crap I stirred up when I messed with the 'fuge

Goin for mysis

 

[OCCFan023]

nice looking firefish Ryan, and that coraline is rampant

 

[kevin4052002]

I love the coralline.

Would you try a mixed group of red/purple firefish?

 

[KahluaZzZ]

ah man you got a very nice ,vivid Gramma there

 

[Mushroomman]

Thanks. Coraline has been doing amazing under halides and the Ca which is usually 450. Its starting to look like my old tank which was absolutely caked.

Yeah Im going to try to mix a purple with a couple reds and see what happens. Might as well try.
