I ♥ Lizzie's Tank

[tmz]

Very nice, love the enthusiasm.

Very Nice! How's the wmg? Very cute!

Wow, Lizz! It's beautiful! I really like the frogspawn "garden" and nice growth on the zoas! Our tanks are almost the same age.

Very nice job, Lizz...it was fun to see the Candy Cane I gave you doing well and placed front and center.

Thanks! I LOVE the watchman goby. She's such a common/inexpensive fish, but so beautiful and full of personality! Even with the amount of trouble those guys cause (Elfie and her shrimp), I would hate to have a tank without them!

Thanks! We should have a newbie tank crawl sometime!

Thanks Eileen I think your candy is cheering up Kat's candy a little bit too (the frag from Kat is still getting a lot of clown "love"). I'm thinking about placing them even closer together to see if they will grow together.

Love coming home to this!!

Love coming home to this!!

I've been having to move some things around due to stingage.....

I also got this Maxima - his name is Eddie

There's been some major excavation going on - my one little pistol did this in about 24 hours. Very industrious fellow!!

Love the way the sun looks next to the crocea!
Kat - that gorg is sprouting two new branches!

 

[superkat]

Lizzie, it's beautiful. So very beautiful. And I am, of course, very happy the gorg is growing so well for you. One of my faves in the 90g.

Very nice Lizz. I just bought a 30 long to start back in. You have inspired me to try and do a build thread. I'm not a very good documenter tho.

My babies are growing up!!

My babies are growing up!!

My little dominant clown has fought everyone off of her anemone, including her little mate - until a couple days ago!
She's letting him get closer and closer!

My frogspawns are looking sooo spread out today!

great collection of euphyllia.

 

[aquadonkey]

Thanks G! The yellow-tipped torch (in the back) and the small frog-spawn (lower-left) are actually from you

Oh, very nice. So you mean they have direct limited edition lineage.

Looking forward to your build thread - I really like the long tanks.

 

[shawna1972]

Looking at the pics its so hard to tell its a 29 gallon. Looks much bigger But wow is it looking great! Had to laugh at what the pistol shrimp did lol loving the frogspawn also!
Great job on this setup/Very nice

 

[aquadonkey]

Thanks Shawna!
I totally love that pistol shrimp - like a puppy in my tank. Even though they make a mess all the time, who can't help loving puppies! They've decided to add an extra bedroom to the west-beach property (aka including the second pvc piece into the enormous tunnel).

Hahaha Gotta love it!

Well... the weather got nice and I've been working on the new tank, so I haven't updated for a while

Here's a current FTS

As you can see, I have less in there now rather than more. I got out of the sps business (not really thriving in there), some things got moved to the new tank (nano thread coming....) and I lost my crocea clam - when my RBTA split, the clam got shaded and I didn't act fast enough.

Here's the side view:

I'm toying with the idea of scraping the coralline off the back pane - what do you think? I scraped the over-flow and now it looks a bit naked, but maybe just because it doesn't match?

 

[daveml]

The clean look does look better but what a pain it is keeping the back wall clean. I lost interest in cleaning it months ago. Either way your tank looks awesome.

but I don't pay attention to coralline on the back glass of someone's reef aquarium.

 

[wetbehindears]

I use to let it build up I thought it was cool. Now I scrape the fish and corals stand out so much more.
