[billsreef]

Test.

Oh WOW!! That looks wonderful!! Let's see it with the lights on... Can't wait! Do you build for anyone else??

Okay I have some more pics and the thread un-locked-up for the third time.

Here is the tank with canopy with all lights on.

With Actinic only

Canopy shot

Control Panel with ballasts mounted

More random shots, Canopy open, lights on/off, different lights.....

Just random stuff.

Here are the LED moon lights.

I've got 47 lbs. of live rock in there now. Some of the rock from my 38 will get transferred to the 75, but not much of it. The 38 has LOTS of mushrooms and LOTS of Kenya tree. I don't think I want either in the 75 as I plan for it to be a SPS dominant tank.

I'll post more pics when I get more rock in the tank.

Thanks for the kind words. I don't think I could build for anyone else. I have enough trouble doing it for myself.

Lee_Bay, where did you get your sand and what kind did you go with?
What kind of mushrooms do you have?

 

[Lee_Bay]

I got my sand @ Berts here in ashland. Fiji Pink is what it is.

The mushrooms are blue. Blue watermelons I think is what they are called.

They are scattered from one end of the 38 to the other. This is an older picture, but may give you an idea.

 

[James11]

Would you be willing to frag out a couple of those?

 

[jmccown]

WOW, haven't checked this in a while. Marvelous. This is just awesome. I love the setup.

I can probably hook you up with a rock (maybe 2) covered in them if you want.

It's no 380 in wall or anything, but thanks. I appreciate that.

Love your tanks. By the way, how is the new queen doing?

 

[jmccown]

Oh, she's doing great Lee. Thanks for asking. She eats anything that hits the water, lol.

 

[Lee_Bay]

Water params all look good. Trites and Trates are already 0.

Now the fun begins. Added 4 Blue-Green Chromis, 2 Bangai Cardinals from the 38, a mixture of snails and hermits.

Started transferring corals which are already showing polyp extension.

So far so good.

 

[Lee_Bay]

I have some softies from the 38 that are not going to the 75. Anyone interested let me know and we'll work something out. I have the Blue Watermelon Shrooms, some Xenia, and some Kenya Tree. Also some of the rock will not make the trip due to the above mentioned softies.

 

[James11]

Sounds good Lee_Bay, I sent ya a PM. Good to hear that the transfer is going good. Waiting on some pics

 

[Lee_Bay]

My camera is on loan right now so it'll be a day or two before I get to take more pics.

Oh wait. My daughter has a kodak I could take some pics with this evening. I'll take some and post tonight if I get a chance.

 

[jmccown]

I'd like to add some softies to my big tank. Do you have any FREE stuff, lol?

 

[Lee_Bay]

Man I miss my camera.
