I want to see everyone's tank! I've seen a few in person, but I think it would be nice to see the tanks of our club all in one place. Many of you will see corals that I've gotten from you, thank you! :D Because of YOU my tank has grown in leaps and bounds.
I still haven't figured out how to get such a colorful fts, but here is mine. 38g and 8 months old.

Take into consideration tht some of us are OLD and can't see those small picts lol.
I can't ever get a decent full tank shot either.
My tanks change everyday lol as I'm always moving stuff around.
I was just messing with them so will try to take some picts later.

Okay, the tank pic is too small for us old farts (sorry I turned 41 today and am having a tough time dealing with it) but it is as large as RC will let me load into the gallery. How about this ric though? Want one Kass??? Maybe.

I want 1 of everything lol. Don't I have some of those?
Is it orange or yellow? I have 2 kinds of orange, yellow, blue with pink mouth, pink, and lime green Flo. rics. I also have some different kinds of ric yumas.

How did that acan lord ever do you got from me?

Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :celeb2:
wish I was 41 again.

The ric is a purple yuma with orangetipped tentacles and a green mouth. Thanks for the Happy Birthday. As to wishing I was another age, well.... I'm either still waiting to hit my peak or it passed by years ago and I never noticed.

As you can tell, I am fighting some funky macro algaes, including GHA and some red and green stuff, I cannot identify. But I will win eventually. Tank has only been up for 4 months.

You sure those are yumas? They look like floridas to me but I'd need a closer picture of the mouth to be sure.
Yumas have bumps around the mouth and floridas don't.

Dan you posted before me so I didnt see your picts at first so now I'll edit lol.

Your tank looks really nice.
Hair algae is micro algae and macro algae is caulerpa and such ( I just HAD to correct you hehe)

For you peeps with HA I read that sea hares work well although some kinds prefer hair and some caulerpa.
It's an animal I ALWAYS wanted but never got because I don't have hair algae. Another reason I stayed away is cuz they can ink so be sure to run carbon if you get one.
Turbos work good too.

Turbos worked the best for us to help get rid of HA, we had a couple outbreaks when we first started the tank and then again when we switched to T5s. A dozen turbos in our 75g worked wonders!

I have to take some new pics but have to scrape some coralline first! :D Haven't taken any in a while. The crazy green tree is now shading stuff, think it's time I hack at it!

Wow nice everyone.

Dang Ron your prop system looks better than any of my tanks lol.
Love the aquapod too. Did you see my thread in the nano DIY on how to make it surface skim? Looks like you put a piece of plexiglass in it to do it like I did cept mine goes up to the top.
I also switched the loc-line to a hydorflo and like it alot better.

Jessica, I spent most of last night doing the wiring over tanks 1 and 2 in the breedng system for the new lights. Tanks 3-6 should be easier but I ran out of supplies. I'll stop tonight. Now I can acutally see the big clown and clown trigger. - the 30 is not much to look at, and will be moved into the new 75 gal prop. when I have time.

Some of the stuff is in a sad and embarassing state of "flux". You saw the basement, it's almost at the stat of being danggerous to let the kid down there. All that stuff...

What do you want to see a picture of?
