How not to build a 750/1500 gallon build thread-Khaosinc 3/5/71-8/30/11

hard to catch a pic of tthis guy.... he was gone in seconds...

last glimse I got of her as well....disapeared in to the rockwork

crabs got right to work...

although putting them in with a bunch of 'shell shocked' snails wasn't the best idea....

The other important thing I added to the fish room, thanks to a free pile... I really should finish that wall before winter.

veiw from the couch.

are you sure it's the camera and not the operator? (or the operator's bad meds?) :lol:

Dude I knew you were the SH!$.....

Been waitin along time to see that.

That star is awesome.

God you make me want to get salty. My tank isn't up yet. Not even cycleing. I sure like seeing the pics of your tank. My tank is coming along just no water yet. Its a time and $ thing.

I've had a harlequin serpent for almost 3 years now and the only time I see any part of him is when I dangle a shrimp near his cave. Very unique...I just wish he would come out more.

Setup is coming along nicely!

Very good point. Enough of them will destroy your immune system.
Please be careful K. I know something you aren't very good at. Please try. Or Not.....
Peace:worried:

Great to see some life getting added to your ocean! Also great that you're feeling well enough again to do it!

trust me, I know. 2 weeks in ICU and a second open heart surgery was plenty of education

lol yeah I guess that would do it.

 

[khaosinc]

Woo hoo... they are letting me back to work... light duty and less than 40 hours.. but at least I will be working.

my next step with the tank will be to add several shrimp goby pairs. I built all my rockwork up on 'stands' with them in mind. Then I just need a pair of crosshatch triggers and a few more tangs...

and to fix the 220, and get the hood built, and skin the stand, and set up a better water change system, and.... etc

That is awesome. Now how about a little reminder. Slow your roll turbo. Or not...... Just thought I would remind you. You know what happens if you don't. Hint hint ICU!
lad to see things are coming around.
I gotta say Blennys KICK A$$!

 

[khaosinc]

ok... now that I have the camera settings figured out... lets try that again. I'm blaming the cat for playing with them....

now that they are staying right side up... if I can just get the snails to go find some algea

can really tell where the crabs have been.. no more fuzzys

still lots to go though..

Linka is liking it though

and the zoa frags I haven't lost in the tank are coming along..

I also seem to have some sort of slug/coral predator in the tank attacking the hard corals. will pull them out for a better look tommorow.

only 2 more days till I get my photobucket back.

 

[flying_dutchman]

Coming along nicely, finally interested in this thread again. Do you have a FTS?

 

[azjeepluvr]

Dude GOD has given you some kind of talent for writing. You just crack me up. Your tank is awesome. Please try to find the little bastard and before you fry it please take a close up. I don't know what a predator looks like in a fish tank. The ex wifes don't count here. lol
