love that pineapple cant wait till there is some growth like naka has had lately

bring on the blu coral method :)
 
Your pineapple coral which is Diplostrea Hellipora I think I am spelling it right is one of my favorites. Sweet piece they are rarely imported you gotta great piece. Your tank is coming along nicely. So what Angels are you going to get next?
 
Hey Ed, clarify with u. u poured in the sand first before scaping? so ur rocks are resting on the sand? how's the flow near the base of the rockscape?
 
OT: Invincible, I didn't know you were a GTR fan! I think I saw a post by you on the 6speed forum. I am thinking of trading in my NSX for the new GTR. I doubt I will as I love my car, but the GTR is awfully tempting!

invincible569 I have been tracking thread for a good while now. I am constantly amazed with its development and would consider myself fortunate to have a tank this beautiful at some point in this wonderful hobby.
 
GSM, Im waiting for my SPS to settle in and then I am going to try the blu coral. My rocks went through the green algae phase again after I tried the 3 days no lights method.

mbunaman, thank you. I am always on the lookout for any nice colorful angel. Im also going to add some more blue spine cardinals.

russ, thats correct. There is minimal sand by the rocks though. I have an output from the CL behind the rocks that blows away any sand that gets behind them.

Maximus, I love GTR's. :) Ever since I have seen them in Japan many years ago and knowing they would never get here made them that much more desirable. Then they finally decided to sell them in the states. I cant wait until they go on sale next yr. There will also be a lot of competition that I also have my eye on. Im going to bring home something thats for sure and it has to be in the 400HP minimum range. :) Some of the new M5's have been catching my attention lately and would be perfect for my family of 4.

ataylo, thanks for the kind comments. I am very fortunate and love what this has become. This is a great hobby and keeps me at home with my family. ;) Not only that, I have met great friends.
 
thanks for posting those pics, t's coming along nicely.

it seems like you have you're lighting pretty set now, but i heard ushio will be coming out with 10k and 14k g12 halides in 150w and possible others...something you may want to consider for the spots, granted you'd need new fixtures.

M5? pshhh....go with an RS4 and call it a day ;)

Good to know about those lights!!

RS4? Why not the RS5? :) Should be out in 08 hopefully?
 
the skyline coming to america isnt a real skyline no inline6,


RS4/rs5=no edge although i love audi

m5/m6/m3= perfect
 
ha yeah, just like the early spy shots were saying the G35 was going to be the relabled GTR

not sure where you're getting the no edge, that's funny.

anyways back on topic before this belongs in the lounge:...:rollface:
 
invincible569, do you have issues with fish jumping out? I have an open top on my 120 and have lost several suicidal fish...
