My new tank.

[frctlimg]

This tank is an upgrade from my 20G. Everything I had left(not much) was transferred over about a week ago. I just added the black sand today. This tank is solely for a pair of Percula clowns. Just need to get a male.

I built the stand 36" tall. I really hate having to bend over to view a tank. I wish i would have built it about 40".

My trach is getting better color out of direct MH light.

Hope you like.

Looks good dude! I love the coloration of that clown. What size is the tank?

 

[frctlimg]

Thanks man. My clown is my pride and joy. It's a 40 Breeder. Twins.

Yeah that is pretty sweet. I've been thinking about cutting mine in half lately. I think i'll wait til I have another nem though.

Nice tank, I thought your last tank was clean and great looking, the black sand really accent the color of the RBTA and the clown. This is a great example of the minimalist reef tank.

Hey thanks for the frags we got from you several weeks ago, they are all doing great.

Which one are you thinking of cutting? Do you still have the sweet roses with the green bases and silver specks??

 

[frctlimg]

Thanks Romeo. Glad the frags are doing well. My tank is definitely minimalist. Not much of a reef tank though. I have to control myself and keep this as a "breeding" project or i'll start spending money on corals again.

I was thinking of cutting the rose i have now. I gave the sparkly ones back to Jesse the night before i got a blue gigantea..... which, like most gigantea do, died three days after i got it. Those nems don't take well to shipping at all. I really want to try another though. I have the guys at Reef Culture get one for me when the open up.

Like the sand addition. I think it looks better that way.
Hope the pocillapora is doing well under that light!

Wow to the anemone! Where did you get that?

 

[Turbovr3six]

Looks good man... I hope ya find another fish soon... Gonna be a cool clow tank for sure!:thumbsup:

 

[SPCLMANAGE]

Good job Kyle, perfect set-up for an attempt at breeding clowns.

 

[frctlimg]

criecken - Thanks. I like it better this way too. Your poci is definitely holding color. The pics don't do it any justice.

tcamos - I got it from a friend who propogates them. Justin has one of these ones too.

Turbovr3six - High tide, heh. thanks dude. I'm going on the clown hunt today.

SPCLMANAGE - Thanks very much.

[frctlimg]

Thanks Brian. I'm diggin it too.

Randy - I bought that clown at Aqua touch as an ORA true perc.

This is what she looked like when i first got her three months ago.

I got a new boy today!! He's acclimating right now. I'll have pictures when he's in the tank.

 

[frctlimg]
