Don't know how I've managed to miss this thread, but just read through it. PROPS and RESPECT to you sir - this is a terrific achievement. Congrats and keep up the great work. I need to build more custom acrylic gadgets - you've really done some inspiring things.

Thanks for checking it out! I love this stuff almost as much as you do! :lolspin:

Your acros and wrasses are second to none my friend! :thumbsup:

We are about half way finished with the build and still have tons of cool stuff to improve! But isn't that always the case in this hobby?

I have been dreaming up some cool acrylic holding containers for Ca, Alk, & Mg. thinking about supplementing some dosing along with the reactors... Still working through that but when the decision is made these containers will be sweet!

Reef on buddy and thanks for your support!

By the way your DFS Pink Dahlia coral is the bessssst!

Another picture taker for today... Very nice... I just put up I think 25+ pics from today. I got a bunch of stuff Friday.

Dead center of that last picture is that an acan or a polyp?

I can't tell what types of Anthias you have.... Are they fat Evansi /Cranberri? If so what are yours feeding on so well? Mine pick but don't fill up.

Thanks

Hey Dave - they are Bartlett's Anthias (Pseudanthias bartlettorum) Started with 15, three super males, now have around 12 with three carpet surfers! I feed them brine shrimp direct flakes, Mysis, scallops, brine shrimp, and some pellets. They are great eaters :thumbsup:
