As per request, my 55 FTS

[Collinrb]

I'm gonna try to grab some more shots of everything later on today. I'll throw them up here as well. Got a wild goniopora I want you guys to check out

I'll get a better picture later but I wanted to know if anyone had seen any with stripes like this before? I got it because it reminded me of Dr Seuss haha

In another 6 months that'll be covered in coraline! Nice!

 

[Collinrb]

ugh im plagued by the stuff. If anyone needs any it takes 2 days to start growing on white rocks

My tank has been up for 5 weeks and it was seeded with all pre-cured live rock from mature (1yr+) mature tanks. I love the stuff, it's beautiful and it's growing on all my DIY rockwall already. Why don't you like it? It makes a beautiful background.

 

[Collinrb]

While it does do that. I am also cursed by it doing the same to the front and sides. Always getting little spots off the front

 

[RTMA]

All signs what you are doing is right. Keep up the good work. All that coralline is your badge of honor!

 

[gmate]

How long has your tank been up/running, Collin?

 

[Collinrb]

going on 8 months now? it could very well be 9. But in any event less than a year.

 

[Collinrb]

Few new pics of fish, corals, etc

Where did you get those clowns and what type are they.

 

[MNfish84]

nice plate! hows the bi color do with corals?

 

[Collinrb]

Arusso- They are extreme misbar clowns and I got them from all pets in branford after about 40 minutes of no not that one, THAT one

MNfish- Only thing the bicolor has eaten is an acan. Everything else is left alone.

Wow they are gorgeous. And that is too funny! good luck!

I love the aquascape too, its perfect for a SPS tank - low rocks so that the SPS has room to grow! lol.

cool, I have one in a QT tank and can't decide if I should let him loose in my main tank.

Got a stunner strip in the mail today. 48" magenta and royal blue. Makes everything look insane! Its late to fire it up and take pics tonight but tomorrow evening I will def be posting a pic.

Also as long as he's full and has live rock to pick from, I doubt he'd bother much. I think the placement of my acan was what enticed him so much. Right in his normal route through the rockwork

 

[Collinrb]

New stunner strip came, and is mounted. Bear in mind the lights made my cell phone camera FREAK out haha. Can't seem to remember where I put my digital but I'll find it soon enough. Hopefully I can get the peps out tonight. Been trying for two nights to no avail

 

[Collinrb]

forgot the pic

 

[scolley]

Dude - that IS extreme! Is that what it looks like, or is that your cell phone's freak out?

 

[Collinrb]

A mix of both, its not so bright but its great color and shimmer

 

[gmate]

What was the price on the stunner strip, out of curiosity? I'm looking to add some LED flare to my existing 55g as well.
