A Splash of Color - My SPS Peninsula Reef

[mhucasey]

Thanks Sahin, i just did a water change and checked against a white background - the water is very clear mate.



Thanks Scotty, I got him down after a while because his bloody sobbing was drowning out the tv - what a wimp

Bravo Biggles, not only are the corals looking amazing but this is a very unique take on the top-down shot, I absolutely love it!

I like all the different greens in the tank and how they pop. You have your light greens, dark greens, medium greens, lime greens, and I think I saw a chartreuse green. I have never seen a fully green SPS tank like yours! Looks terriffic.
I would suggest that you get some frags from Scott Freddy. But I don't think he has any green acros at all.

Marty, you're gonna get it for making it crystal clear that Biggles's tank is full of snotty green acros. :facepalm:

Be prepared for Biggles's wrath.

PS: Marty, I suggest laying low for a week...maybe hide out in the Equipment Forum...Biggles rarely ventures over there... :lol:

What type of lighting is currently on the tank, did I miss it. Is it a 400w radium with 6t5s?
Or is that for your new tank?

You're asking for a visit from an angry drop-bear, you are!

What Sahin; did I say something wrong? I think Biggles has a wonderful SPS tank. The color is amazing (Green). I wish I had corals like that.
Its not my place to say, since I failed miserbly at keeping SPS corals. But there are SPS corals that aren't green. Like SSC. But Sahin, I can't hold a candle to Biggles, period. I love his tank. I think some Garden Gnomes would look great in the tank.

Well, well, well.............. you know what i always think of whenever i see Sahin and Marty posting together - the pic someone took of them arriving together at MACNA last year..........

Pretty sure the acro Potatohead is standing on ain't turning green........

Don't get me started on bloody acro colors. Remember that so called 'purple' milli Keith from Willy sold me, turns out it only looks purple because it's pink with blue corallite lips - what a joke !
Keith also sold me this as a white with green corallite lips bi-color five or six weeks back. I count at least four distinct colors now - if i wanted a quad color i'd have bloody asked for a quad color Keith !

I need to answer everyone's posts i've missed today and take some gratuitous top downs during the Sunday water change

I LOVE this acro!
Beautiful.
Biggles, you're allowed to a a green acro or two with beauties like this.
I want to see this in a month or two. The polyps have big potential

If you noticed, neither Sahin or I have any green on at all. As a matter of fact, our float has no green on it.

Marty

Marty, you are clearly in Biggles's bad books. I made the mistake of quoting and writing about your post and got branded a clown. :angryfire:

All I was doing was pointing out something you posted and Biggles had to write something about MACNA and some stupid clowns.

I've never been to MACNA, and it would be awesome for me to attend one day...But deep in the back of my mind, I will be haunted by this image of the clowns. :worried:

PS Biggles: I picked up two Pink Millepora frags on Sunday from a buddy breaking down his frag tank. Both were free.

Hopefully they will colour up soon.

PPS Biggles: It looks like you posted more pics, but cant view them; will try later when at home. Is it a pink Millepora?

 

[sahin]

This is an awesome piece Biggles:

Very jealous mate.

 

[ryanrid]

very nice piece indeed

 

[martinphillip03]

Biggles called me a clown. Can't argue. But it took me a day to catch was his retort to me was reef orientated. Brilliant! I am now humiliated on what I did. Also Kevin sent me an e-mail that was short and sweet. Stop, or die.
Tank does look good. Can't wait for the transfer to the peninsula tank.
