how's the Regal Angel doing??


I moved the regal out of the tank. Due to him not eating and aggression from the other Angels.

Was just curious why your running 3 halides, if you plan on just fish only. I see you have a couple coral. But just curious if your planning on going reef later. It's just adding alot of extra heat, and expense. Just wondering


I added the MH for the looks. I do plan to try and keep what corals I can.


The tank ha 5/8" sides and bottom. Front and back panes are Starphire 1/2" with bracing on top. You can click my homepage button above to see the construction of the tank and misc pics.
 
Your tank is looking awesome! I don't think it's overstocked, but it is nicely stocked.

People don't seem to say that a tank is overstocked when it's full right to the brim with SPS, however a few big fish and all h*ll breaks loose!

I hope they continue to get along fine... I sure wouldn't want the job of trying to remove any of them.

Thanks,,,,, I don't think so either.

This is true... :rolleyes:


Well if something does happened I will be prepared and remove any problems as they arise.

Always looking great HD. Glad the new Emp settled in without incident.
Keep it up!!


Thanks,,,


He is doing just fine! He has settled in very nice. He is starting to be the dominate fish in the tank. But no problems with the other Angels;)
 
I added a large Anemone to the tank. I was hoping my clown would host in it......Well after 10mins from putting it in the tank my perc was in heaven. I added it to my tank about 2 weeks ago he is loving the flow in the tank! He has moved a bit around the rock but stays right at the top close to one of my MH lights and close to a output from my 4-way. I have feed him once with a silverslide soaked in Selcon and he digested it in a day or two. My perc does not let my larger maroon clown come even close to it chases him away. Very funny to watch. I have moved my 4 actinic VHO URI bulbs closer to the water surface for better light penetration. They are about 3-4" above the water surface they made a big difference in the color of the tank compared to when I had them mounted 15-17" above. My MH were washing them out. I'm hoping to start on the framing of the tank to build it into the wall next week.

Just read through all the pages! (apparently, some other posters on the last couple of pages haven't:rolleyes: )

You tank looks great!! I am really impressed. The clown trigger looks awesome! I have seen quite a few long term reef tanks with clown triggers in them. I have considered it myself, but my tank is too small. As you have proven, if you feed your fish correctly, they will be much less likely to cause problems. Thanks for the great thread!

It is very uncool of you to have success with this dangerous combination of fish and corals. I don't know how you live with yourself by being a bad example and having success in this hobby. To quote another: "

I am going to give you some researched information. Once your fish turn exactly 3.5 years old, they will turn on you and decide to destroy your aquarium. First, they will eat the shrimp and corals then turn on eachother and eat eachother. The fish that can eat the fastest will be the ones to survive. They will form a fish gang known to police and marine biologists as Hell's Angels...And Trigger (HA...AT). HA...AT will immediately go to work devouring the epoxy and chewing their way through the glass. I would go on with what they do next to the cat and the dog, but it is just to much for me to bear. Just remember, HA...AT is considered finned and dangerous.:worried2: :worried2: :worried2:

LOL I always forget.... My computer is connected to my 60" LCD T.V and the pics do not look as big. Photobucket as a premium member does not down size the uploaded images. Sorry I should put a warning before posting them:)
 
Looks better and better everytime I see it. :thumbsup:
I really like that last shot.
Are you starting your woodwork above the system? I see the lighting blockers are off.

I got your TV beat now tho LOL....;)

Just picked up my Black 62" Mitsu last night. :D
Now I have to wait for my HD reciever to come in Saturday. :(
S-video is nice, just not HD.

:beachbum:
 
Yes I hope to start on the build-in this weekend. You will love HD programing once you get your equipment. You will find you will watch nothing but HD after you see it.
 
That`s good news to hear. Can`t wait to see the pics of the wood. I know it will be top-notch.

My little sis got a Sony Grand wega....we spent the week there last summer and I didn`t want to come home to my 11yr 50" Mitsu :)

It`s funny that my new one is HD ready & integrated but DirectTV doesn`t have Cablecard technology yet LOL...

Do you use the Windows Media Center?

:beachbum:

Actually it's not going to be wood. I'm framing it in then going to drywall the stand and the sides paint to match the walls. I hope to do the doors on top so it looks like there are none . Yep that is a nice t.v. I bought mine 4 years ago before the big hd market explosion. Sony Grand Wega XBR Sony's flagship T.V. It ran me $10,000 in 2001-02. Yes I have WMC on my computer.
