4' x 4' x 2' build

Thanks guys.


Recent action:

I've just sold my tunze 6205 and installed a vortech mp40w. I love it.

I have another 2 coming. They'll be here hopefully next week.

I'm also about to start feeding the corals at night with cyclop-eeze.

At the moment I am feeding them a tiny portion of reef chilly and a cube of rotifers every night. They seem to be responding positively.

I have not noticed any detectable N or P (salifert) despite this ample feeding schedule.

Well I got my hands on a Nikon D3000 DSLR. I bought it for my wife's 40th but had to test it on the tank of course. :devil:

So finally I have a decent camera that shows the colours like I see them in person.

These shots are using the 'auto' setting with no adjustments to any settings. I clearly have a lot to learn but I'm happy with what I've shot given my photographic noobness. :nut:

I've added 3 MP40W Vortechs. They are great and really not noisy, unless run in pulse mode. I am running each on reef-crest mode with no syncing, for the best random flow possible.

I've also added some blue suede 'panels' to my hood. They match the stand and are easy to remove or gain access to the water when feeding. My lovely and still very young wife helped me with the cutting and sewing (read she did it all). It's not quite finished but I'm very happy with the result. Adds a touch of class.

Here's a shot of my 8yr olds FW nano. I help him with the maintenance. He's very interested in aquaria, including the reef of caourse.

And finally some action shots of Bella and Luke running around the pool on fast shutter speed. It's nice and hot in Melbourne today. 35 sunny degrees on the way.

Melbourne looks like the place to be! It's about 15 deg F outside right now with 40 mph+ winds in New Jersey! ... Not, the place to be!

Nice pics of the the reef, pup, and Luke!
