Come with me on my Custom 77 Gallon setup

Aesthetics.. that's why I didn't get it ... I'm just an engineer and thought the numbers served some sort of function - but they only serve form.... You tank still looks good! I guess it's the rule at work.

 

[Stile2]

Why Thank you! I am more the function over form type as well, but part of the function of a tank is the form.

Ok I feel kind of foolish. Well then again names were never my thing. So, the Kelly Tort that I thought I got is actually a Cali Tort (Blue with neon green tips)!!

And the other is a Steve Tyree Elias Stag (Green with blue Coralites).

I got them at the show from a IEMAS member, but it was really loud in there and I misunderstood the names.:lol:

I will get pictures this weekend. I've been really busy lately.

Hey Keith,

Just finished reading this over, I give those tips a shot. Also if you don't mind me asking, where did you get the stand built? I was looking to have a metal stand built for my garage frag tank. Thanks.

Steve

My father and I built the stand. He is the General Manager and Test Pilot for a company that builds prototype airplanes.

Sweet! Oh by the way, your tank looks awesome and the fish room is going to be sweet. My offer still stands if you ever need any help.

Very nice indeed

Thanks Steve and Cody,

Well I needed to make some food again.

I changed up the ingredients a little as this is what I had on hand.

Seafood Combo (Whole bag), Nori (5-6 sheets), Cyclopl-eeze (3 teaspoons), Reef Roids (3 teaspoons), Formula One & Two (3 Tablespoons), Garlic Extreme (1 teaspoon), Selcon (1 teaspoon)

Just the right amount of mixing.

Food bagged up.

Fish and corals went crazy for it on the first feeding.

I'll post results as I feed more.

Thanks
Keith

[Stile2]

[Stile2]

Well, I have finally ordered a 105mm Macro Lens for the Nikon D50 I have. Hopefully I will be able to get some good closeup pics. It will arrive tomorrow!! :thumbsup:

 

[gkarshens]

Which one did you order and where did you get it? I have been looking for the same thing!

 

[Cprowler]

Me too!

 

[Stile2]

I got it from amazon.com. I got the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 EX DG.

Here is a link

I'll be posting a review after I get it.

Is there any difference between an IceCap 250W MH electronic ballast for a SE and an HQI DE?

thanks
Keith
