Thanks for the reply i agree i liek the look of less myself as well but i was thinking maybe 1 more piece down the road for more coral placement you kno more room more corals more use for the 800watts of light over the tank

Zack

Yeah maybe you can add a piece or two on the left side there and create another small island for more corals. That would look real nice.

ziggy thanks for the completment and i can only imagaine what joy you have seeing ur son taking pride in what you love as well especially at such a young age i love taking care of my tanks my only problem is this summer im going to live with my cousin in newfoundland like 6 hour flight away and well i have to try to teach my parenst what to do for the 2 months ill be gone may god be with me

justinpsmith- thanks for the thought i will have to see what it looks liek one day when i need the space but i have a feeling that won't be for a while seeing as i plan on only buyign frags or very small colony's

Tell those hermits to stop hanging all over your awesome pink/purple stylophora.

Awesome start. Keep it up!

 

[Goalie Kid]

Looks good! My only suggestion is you might want to put a thin glass shield right below the halides to protect it from accidental splashes and also to keep it clean. You might want to make a canopy to house those.

Good luck and have fun!

 

[Goalie Kid]

i dont see why i need a canopy seeing as it is an inwall tank and i have glass lids for the tank they werent on when the pictures where taken because i had only just cleaned the glass with a knife and had just fed the fish

 

[JustinReef]

Can we see a pic with more of the wall? I didn't even realize it was in the wall but it makes sense now. Thats why I didn't understand the trim.

 

[Reeftanks6]

OK if i where you i might want to add a little more rock in to give the fish a little more hiding space. Other thing you can think about is that glass under the halides from them not getting hit by the water splashing. But man i wish i could upgrade to a 220 thats awesome dude. I wish i had the time to go out and get a job but i dont between school work soccer and basketball i just dont have anytime for it. But i wish i did at the same time so i can get that big tank i want.

Looks good. I'm always impressed when I see you young ones taking care of a reef tank, I doubt most kids have the patience.
It would make it a lot easier to read your posts though if you used some punctuation.

 

[Goalie Kid]

Horwitz- im sorry for the no punctuation.
Justinpsmith- i will take a pic of the wall and the rest of the room today and let you see it.

Reeftanks6-thansk for the comment i will have to see about adding the rock sometime in a bit. I will post some better macro shts of the corals and some of just the fish today for you guys and girls to see.

Hey guys i got the pics of the wall and room i promised. I even took a pic of the 22o gallon tank i was going to use. It is now a turtle tank for 2 babys and most likely 2 more in a couple of weeks

Zack

 

[Goalie Kid]

Forgot the pics sorry here they are

 

[kar93]

Looks Good, Are both them tanks in the living room?

 

[Packersfan21]

Really nice tank!

I am 12 years old and got started in the hobby about a year ago. My best friend and I are running a 90 reef in the livingroom, and soon I'll be setting up a 46 gallon bowfont reef in my room.

 

[Ziggy953]

Looks good Zack!

 

[Goalie Kid]
