47G SPS...Revamp

[sahin]

Aesthetically the glass-holes is an eye sore to me, but something to consider. I will have to think it over, it's only $304 shipped to the US for two Oceanlife kits... I'm just worried about drilling, I've never done it before and drilling for one kit will be hard enough... haha

The glass-holes version was an example, not sure what else you have in the US. ReefSavvy do some nice overflow kits dont they?

Drilling: I drilled my tank late last year aftre putting my newborn son and kids to bed...it was like 1am...and I'd never drilled a tank before. I just watched a bunch of YT videos and then took all the precautions I read about and it was easy. My tank has 12mm glass so it took a long time. But I did it all by myself.

I'm a little late to the convo, but out of the affordable, easy to keep anthias my vote goes to dispars. I've kept many types of anthias and when all things are considered, dispars are up there with my favorites. They're relatively hardy, cheap, and pretty. I also like their behavior in my tank. I also have bimaculatus in my tank and although they are hardy, they are large and don't behave like your typical anthias.

Thank you. I will get the Dispars. They are relatively cheap and probably one of the least likely I will have issues with. Now just waiting on my LFS guy to get them.

Thanks, I didn't even think of the ghost. I'm looking into Synergy's overflow right now which is similar. :thumbsup:

So basically you're saying that you'd rather be doing unimportant things of no consequence than succumbing to the pressure and doing what you should be? Shame on you :debi:

Definitely need to get on that Kore Sahin, the doser is amazing! I just set mine up a few days ago and it's brilliant :inlove:

I need to change up my thread notification to one per week. All this constant FTS FTS FTS chanting...sheeshh...when did this forum become so demanding... :lol:

Here is the silly FTS you guys wanted. As you can see some corals are nicely coloured and popping and others are popping with a poopy brown poop colour. :headwally:

Going to try my best to get it started this week. I got the version with all the extra bits. I come home and am so tired; normally I'd be all over a new reef toy. :worried:

BFC is now something like 2. Higher than even Biggles' BFC. :eek2:

 

[mhucasey]

Its looking good! That Red planet is taking over!

Less complaining Sahin, more pictures. You surrendered to the forum a long time ago:lolspin:

 

[joshky]

Yeah that red planet is crazy ahaha, great FTS!! Thanks for sharing.

 

[bobssecrtsn]

[cugly]

Cool tank is looking good. There we go again with brown stuff indont see any brown.

 

[reefmutt]

Kidding..
Thanks for the fts..
Sometimes, ya gotta work..

 

[rovster]

You're gonna need a bigger tank! A true coral hoarder....takes one to know one. Looking good!

 

[biggles]

Nice to see you posting again mate, i'm sure once you get a break from work you'll be able to get all your babies smiling brightly again Sahin.
It doesn't look like you have much coralline growth anywhere going on or is it just the pic ?

I know what it's like to work yourself into the ground with very little rest and no time or energy left for your hobby or anything else so hang tough and don't worry about pics etc until life cuts you a break my friend. I will abuse any reefers that hassle you for FTS's from now on mate - especially those nagging Canadians.........:thumbsup:
