New tank Pictures

[jpweber]

I wanted to hold out until the tank was 6 months old before posting pics but boredom got the better of me.

This is when it started

This is now

What a great start you have there... things seem to be growing good. What are the tank specs?

 

[jpweber]

its a 60 gal (36X20X20). Lit by 8X39w ATI sun power. I am running Bio-pellets and a life reef skimmer and that's about it. I had a 28 gal Nano cube that i tried to move the corals over from but i lost most everything except for the Favia in the front and one SPS that's in the back.

I love your set up,very clean.Great start.

I know this is the SPS forum but I am strangely drawn to the Lps on the bottom. Is that a brain or an acan?

 

[clowndude]

Just a word of caution, be very careful with the biopellets as you don't seem to have a lot of fish. They will strip your water fast so be sure to supplement.

Looks like you are on your way, good start!

 

[jpweber]

Thanks eveyone

Yea i know the bio pellets will strip out a lot I have 6 fish right now and was planning on at least another. I also dose AA's daily, which now that im typing this at work realized i forgot this morning.

[KidReefer]

nice, I like the aquascaping

 

[JAustin]

Looking good bro! I know your doing it right when i can see the coraline explode with growth after looking at your FTS.

 

[jpweber]

I tried to mimic some of the tanks ive seen on here with the more minimal aquascapes, i didnt quite get there but im happy with the way it turned out.

I was glad when the coraline took off, but its becoming a pain to keep off the front and sides.

Thanks again for the comments, just like most people i wish everything would grow faster. Except the coraline i guess

Its been a few months since i posted so i wanted to post a new picture of my tank and ask a question.

Here is the picture:

and here is the question, anyone know a good way to get rid of the green sticks of algea that are all over the tank?

I would just pluck them. Is your Ca high? They show up when my Ca was around 500.
