Mitch's 17.4g Reef

Very nice tank. I like the death on the glass approach to making them remember what is on the other side of the glass.
 
So as you can tell by the above post, the Clownfish also decided to go carpet surfing which forced me to build a screen cover for the tank. I'm really sad about the clown. Check it out, along with some other pictures.

So here's a picture of the screen top I made. I think it looks pretty clean and doesn't take away too much from the layout.

Here's an okay shot of the Cardinalfish I got

Enjoy, and please comment!
 
Quick update (no pictures this time, sorry!):
I got a couple of frags this week... a GSP frag (which is still stressed as hell), 25p of Eagle Eye Zoa's, and an Orange Monti Cap frag(s). The new zoa's and monti cap have acclimated well. I also hooked up the stunner strip and now the tank is getting some nice shimmer. Lastly, I'm getting a CPR BakPak skimmer for this tank which might take a little while to get set up, but should make the live stock happier. Pictures of everything to come this weekend!
 
Here's some pictures for you guys to hold you off until I get that video up... :)

Other Monti cap frags that I accidentally broke off the main frag while trying to attach it.

Enjoy, and please comment!
 
I bought a Bicolor Blenny at the LFS earlier. It's acclimated and happy, but I'll wait until it starts swimming around to take some pictures.

I think Poison Dart Frogs are the reef fish of the reptile hobby. :)

Enjoy!
 
I took a new video of the tank with only the Stunner Strip on... check it out! :D

Awesome news... Ecoxotic just posted my most recent video on their facebook page! Pretty honored, haha.

In other news, I'm getting my RBTA and Duncans tomorrow! Very excited. Yet, I'm having horrible diatom buildup on my glass that I have to scrape off every few days which is getting annoying. I think the DIY refugium I'm working on will fix that though. :D
