well done! love it!

Update!
Flat Tops

FTS

The Setosa has grown even more but the Red Planet keeps killing it as well. Making it look almost the same. Everything is getting giant. Behind some of the other stuff there are 40-50 Tubs Blue zoas, Pink Lemonade, Digi that is growing on the overflow. Give this a year and I cant wait to see it!

Enjoy!

Nice! From you FTS on 5/11/11 to today, you corals have really filled in.

 

[RynosReef]

Your tank looks awesome! Everything has grown in great

 

[DFason]

Thanks guys. I hope to have this tank up for another year and a half. After that I have no clue!

Shows that a little bit of patience and dedication can do! Now it is time to finish my three tier system.

Looks great Dave. Lots of growth just from early December to late January.

Question. Have you had some bleaching on some of the corals? The January shot looks like the setosa is lighter and the plana as well. Could just be lighting on the photo though.

Commented in the nano forums, figured I'd follow up here, tank looks sick! Great growth and amazing ALMOST nano

 

[DFason]

Thanks guys. I would think 35 is a nano

The pictures are a little different due to different lighting scenarios. I am changing LED brightness all the time to see the effect. Plus I just got a new camera!

Hey dave, where did you get your red spot glass cardinals? I love them! How long have you had them? Any pointers for somone who wants to put maybe 8-10 in a 40 breeder?

I recently was told that yellow tail damsels which aren't that aggressive will devour those plan aria. Would be worth a shot as opposed to adding chemicals to the tank.
