Purdy sticks.

Now your just being mean!!! Teasing me with all that eye candy, you should be ashamed of yourself!!!

 

[Unarce]

Looks like you're back on track, buddy

 

[palileo]

All I can say is Whoa!!!

Well one more... can we see a full-tank shot?

 

[Blu50Stang]

Very nice

 

[Nu2SW]

Looking good......

 

[Elim]

Show off Did the new bulbs lighten up the paletta blue in that first pix?

 

[boviac]

I'd say somebody likes the color blue! Nothing to be emotionally blue about though! Great Pics!!! Glad to see everything appears to be working out after the equipment drama.

Is it your new reeflux 12K's? Lookin good!

 

[tfp]

thanks everyone. tank is 2/3 reeflux 12k. middle bulb arriving soon
another lighting change i'll be doing real soon is replacing the supplimental T5s with VHO's (yes, i'm going backwards).

 

[boviac]

Praytell why going backwards?

 

[pcurry18]

very admirable

 

[pbetito]

NICE WORK TIM!!! I am looking at my reef as I write this feeling some air come out of my sails. That is a beautiful tank.

 

[Brian Prestwood]

Hey Tim

Looking good

 

[plankton]

Tim - Very nice!

Let me know when you are selling frags again...

:bum:

 

[tfp]

chris, after running t5's as supplemental lighting and trying 3 diff bulbs (actinic, blue and blue+), over the last 3 years, my sps color up much better under the vho actinic side of the tank.

paul, c'mon now...rome wasn't built in a day. 99% of these guys were started as 1" frags and have gone thru several "re-starts".

scott, you gettin back into corals again? i thought you went fowlr?

[tfp]

thanks for the props jim .
hey, i did the mavgi mesh and its rockin' both euros now! much more foam in the body.

 

[Jim_S]

Yeah. The mesh is sweet.

Do you have one of the older 12's?

If you do, I bet when you ran the mesh it just blew those old sedras out of the water

I'd like to try it, but I'm just worried about messing up my eheim It's like $250 to replace it if I mess up.

But I don't think my skimmer can handle any more air. I just want the finer bubbles!
