Sweet pictures Kayla, and very nice Blasto's. WOW!:eek2:

Interesting. Blastomussa and Clams together. That puts all the theory that Blatos are low light creatures. Nice pictures by the way.

 

[Flipturn88]

And lastly...

Fish

And I think that's enough damage for one day. Have a good one, and enjoy!

 

[Flipturn88]

Thanks again, RJ. Blastos will always be my favorite coral. I hope to one day get a purple/orange one, but that certainly won't be overnight with my budget and resources.

I did have to carefully acclimate my blastos to the MH, but now that they are adjusted, they're loving the light.

Honestly Kayla, you take the term "young reefer" to new heights.

 

[Flipturn88]

Thanks again everyone, but I must note that Josh (majesticangelfish) is the person to thank for the creation of this tank; he worked out the plumbing and construction, and without him, this tank probably wouldn't even exist! Please send the praise his way as well.

Wow, makes me feel like my cube doesn't have any fish...

 

[Jordan55]

Nice tank Kayla!

You never cease to amaze me!

Curious as to what type of frogfish that is?

Careful he doesn't get too big, may try and snack on that mandarin.

 

[LeftCoast]

Josh did good too.
Isn't it a lionfish?

 

[Jordan55]

Josh did do a excellent job!

Duhh.... of course it is a lionfish. Wow, I cannot believe I didn't recognize it. I was looking at it like like it was a frogfish for some reason. Thanks for catching that!

i swam at swim atlanta too! The only coach i can remember off hand was Maria. Maybe you know who she is? Which location did you swim at?

That's awesome! I was big into competitive swimming until a recent shoulder injury halted any of my growing dreams. If you remember, who were your coaches?

There is one union in the piping that leads to the CL Sequence Dart. All other piping has multiple ball valves, mainly due to a lack of need for the unions, although they certainly wouldn't have hurt things. HTH

Time for an update!

The tank is continuing to mature very well. All of the corals are coloring up have adjusted to the lighting and tank conditions. Here are some more pics:

Very cool! It's a small world.

Yes, I remember Maria. I swam at John's Creek (and trained with Chris Davis, the founder, during the winter), so she was never my coach, but sometimes we went to the same meets.

 

[fishypets]

:eek2: WOW!! Amazing pics. That tank will be unreal in a few years. Keep up the good work.

Sweet, very nice Kayla, I'm loving it!

Does that Dwarf lion pack a good sting, or it is miniturized like him?
