Nice!:D So any new ideas with the tank? Say that TDS Meter looks just like mine:p (yes I know I copied you lol). Did you ever pick out the light for the fuge? You can always go economy and use something like this:

Or like this:

Both ways work. I'm using the second method right now and the cheato grows just fine.

lol.. copycat copycat :P

Thanks for the links! I will probably try something like that. I have to return some stuff today and will stop by HD and see what I can find.
 
Monday Update!

Okay, the pump and nanostreams will be here Wednesday woohoo! I ordered the Mag 5 and two Nanostream 6045's. They were out of the auto top off unit by Tunze, so I have to wait until middle of May for that.

I also bought a scopas tang and some chaeto today :) The scopas is beautiful and currently hiding behind the rocks. Hopefully she will come out later this evening. We wanted something in the tank to swim and roam so we picked the scopas.

Here are some photos. I couldn't get any of the scopas. Maybe later tonight.

Here is the fuge. Kinda messy I'll clean it all up Wednesday.

Ricordea and frogspawn has just been added to my shopping list.
Those are well nice pics.

p.s.: fun thread, good craic - keep it up.
 
I'm sure you've been directed to the nanostream mod thread, if not check it out. I just picked up my wireless dremel from Frys for 39.99 last night to do mine tonight and my second one that arrives tomorrow.
 
I was feeding my sun corals just now and my two clownfish wouldn't leave me alone long enough to do it! They kept trying to steal the brine shrimp out of the corals mouth and my dropper!

Hovering like sharks.

Would not leave until they got fed AGAIN!

Here are some photos of my sun corals being fed.

Mouths open and waiting.

Hi NanoGurl (aka NG :D ), may I ask where you get your corals from? They all look very nice, I really like the sun coral.

Looking forward to seeing the final placement of all your corals.

I've said it before but needs to be said again...Great job.
 
Love your tank, pets, and the whole story, NanoGurl! What kind of paint did you use on the back of your tank, and why, if you don't mind...
