Okay... Time for a quick update!

PS- Jon, that'd be great! Give me a week or two until I add some corals I brought to ARC and let these color up! :)
 
Tank looks good jon.

One quick suggestion, that i should've done when i was there scaping. Move the whole right structure over 1 inch to the right to make the gap between the left and right structures larger... or not lol.

BTW sick fungia!
 
Very nice fungia Jon.

Offer still stands for some frags. Dunno if I dropped the ball on phone tag but LMK if you're ever in Roch.

I haven't updated this thread in a bit, but tonight a friend let me borrow his dSLR and I finally got some decent shots. :smokin:

A few updates before the pictures:

-My corals are doing a LOT better and have colored up tremendously!
-I added a twelve-line wrasse and a spotted manderin.
-I'm dealing with some pesky red flatworms, trying to go about removing them the natural way before resorting to FW Exit.

Also, I've decided to upgrade my off-brand T5 fixture to either the new Tek Elite or an ATI Powermodule. I'm not sure which route I'll go yet. I did however decide to order an Apex Lite through my LFS. The cords all over my sump give me a headache and I'm sure my Grandma will appreciate all of the old light timers I won't be using anymore! :lmao: And on that note...

That's all for now, will update again soon. Let me know what ya think! :beachbum:
 
Thanks Todd! The LFS I got him from kept him for over a year and he's fully trained to eat frozen brine shrimp. He's a pig to say the least.
 
Very nice! I've had a combo of a mandarin and 12 line in my tank for about 3 years now, and I think they do a nice job of keeping a lot of pests at bay.
 
looking very nice! great manderin, nice blue color stripes :)

what off brand T5 do u have?, can i ask why are you switching them out? i am thinking of purchasing a few from ebay...
