The tank is coming along nicely. I started adding new corals last week and have a nice starter collection.

Here is my softies that I moved from the old tank.

Green and purple Yumas

Zoanthids and Palys

My LFS got these beautiful cobalt blue Rhodactis in and I could resist picking a polyp up. The orange one next to it was also to hard to pass up.

Superman Rhodactis

SPS

Watermelon Abro or the Dirk Diggler as my wife calls it.

Not sure what species of Acro this is but it is a nice green/baby blue tips

Superman Monti frag

Matt, everything looks great :thumbsup: How long have you had the clove polyps? Also the watermelon abro looks really good, can't wait to see that grow out!

how is the achilles tang doing? i want one but everybody says save your money it will die!!! nice tank and build thread very inspiring

He is doing great.
It's pretty much a crap shoot with these fish. I would say it is almost mandatory to have an insane amount of flow and a UV sterilizer in order to keep these fish long term.

How high from the surface can you run that light?

I took a break on the corals and decided to add some fish.

A pair of tank raised Potters Angels. They eat like a pig.

A small group of Helfrichs Firefish

A tank raised Rosefascia Fairy Wrasse

My little baby 3" Bandit Angel

Larger Bandits can be difficult so that is why I paid a premium to get a smaller speciman.

OMG! You are having some CRAZY fish in there!!! How are the helfrichi getting together? I would love to get a few more for my lonly helfrichi!

That Bandit is BEAUTIFUL!

 

[triggerfish1976]

They are getting along fine. They pretty much stay in a tight group and are eating like pigs.

i wanted the potter's pair but you beat me! regardless i know it went to a good home, And your tank is WAY cooler then mine, good job!

Sorry to ask an old question, but looking at your empty tank, can you explain the corners of the glass? It almost looks as if there's something holding the sides together? Or is it simply an illusion of the silicone on the inside. Only reason I guessed something holding it together is it looks like there's something between the sheets of glass where one butts up to another.

Also along the ridge is there anything on top? I know you went with starfire but it almost looks green, as opposed to the "clear" look of starfire.

More photos of the potters and the bandit please.

And the pictures of the equipment my friend ?

I love your aquarium.
