Thanks, the bottom of the tank was made like that by Oceanic, its that black material about 3/4" thick then glass then some more black. Not sure what the actual material is though.

Nice detz15, thanks.



Any one else?

Here is my open brain (at least I think that is what it is). It is farily new, but doing well.

Here is my pineapple brain. It is about the size of a soccer ball.

Close up.

Nice Brain racer69 i like it!

 

[Shnabbles]

What kind of care are you guys giving your closed brains?? Mine seems to slowly be loosing tissue... and it seems like every day i see another polyp with the skeleton starting to poke through

 

[stank]

No special care for mine really, moderate flow and light. Plenty of fish poo to eat. Thats it for mine.

Racer69, that's a very nice pineapple brain. How big was it when you got it? I can't recall every seeing one that big in a reef tank.

I've been waiting to show off this pic. Though now it's somewhat dated .

Some close-ups

Unfortunately, the yellow tang developed a taste for green brain and I had to move it. It's doing well, but I miss it in the 75.

Amphiprionocellaris, those are incredible! The Trachyphyllias are one of my very favorite corals. Like you, I have a gorgeous T. radiata (formerly Wellsophyllia radiata) that my Foxface has taken a liking to. I moved it into my sump/fuge, and it's doing well there. I'm trying to decide who goes, the Foxface or the coral. Of course, I've been trying to decide this for almost two years now. I like 'em both!

Thanks, LPS have long been my favorite corals, even after "graduating" to SPS (IME SPS are really no more challengin than other corals; know what they like and provide it).
I like the tang, but I like my brains better; the problem was catching the tang! I might try putting the brain back in, but I like it where it is now!

 

[thedigitalimager]

I like the tang, but I like my brains better

I with you on that one. I need all the "brains" I can get.:lol:

 

[reefinmike]
