New tank with LED light

[rodneyri]

Now where to stick them all down....the more there are the harder the decision!

Holy cow Rodney lol - if you were in the US you'd have dropped a few grand in the last few weeks mate. Beautiful pieces but i'm glad it's you and not me stressing about where to put them lol.

Will be good watching them all settle in over the next few months mate :thumbsup:

 

[rodneyri]

Been asked a few times what filtration is run so here is a pic of the sump...very simple (and dirty right now).
Siporax > Skimmer > Reutrn with carbon and rowaphos

I love the $30 for a coral comment. That my friend is a colony. I puked in my mouth a bit when I read that.

I love your rockwork,coral selection, and cleanliness. It is gorgeous.

 

[rodneyri]

Had a call from my bro, some foam box was at the airport for pickup from our collector mate...sighs...more corals...we did say we like shortcakes.

Sorry just too good not to post, reef to door <24hrs

 

[rodneyri]

Slowly getting there with the coral placement...have had to reglue some pieces a few times cause I couldnt make my mind up where it should go

I'm always moving stuff Rodney lol, it's worth the trouble in the long run though

Beautiful pieces mate, the reef is looking very cool. :thumbsup:

 

[rodneyri]

lol we always tinker hey, talking about tinkering im going to be using Aquaforest for the tank so will see how that goes

 

[biggles]

........talking about tinkering im going to be using Aquaforest for the tank so will see how that goes

That sounds like a great idea Rodney :thumbsup:

......... mental note - make a quick stop on the way to Sahinooine and blast Rodney's untrained raw acro recruits to hell with the acro porn cannon before they have a chance to dig in........ rebel scum :strooper:

 

[Wrangy]

Wow Rodney! The tank is looking gorgeous mate! Those acro's are bloody fantastic and they look rather happy with that PE going on

How are you finding the siporax?? Any thoughts on it so far?

 

[slavetonet]

I am on the siporax bandwagon too. Lol

 

[M007]

Wow, outstanding set of photos :beer: Your first shot with the back ground and reflections was a stunning opener. The Acros look incredibly happy :thumbsup: Excellent scape and coral placement :bigeyes:

This is art!

 

[markalot]

This is art!

I agree, looking fantastic.

 

[fessoclown]

I haven't checked in on your thread in a long time, it's looking splendid indeed!
Your scape is filling in so nice!
What wrasse is that with the red and white vertical stripes? The face looks like a mystery wrasse but I've never seen stripes like that.
EDIT: google just answered my question. You have an awesome specimen there!
Can you share your fish list please?

 

[rodneyri]

News for the tank, now fully flown by Vortech Quietdrive 40's and the jebao now gone. Another UCA delivery came in again - tank is filling up quickly

Fisht list
15 chromis
Mystery Wrasse
Flame Hawk
Purple tang...tiny, had 3 but there can be only one.

Going to add five bicolor anthias and a royal gramma and call it done.

 

[rodneyri]

Just some top downs when doing a water change today, shows the color arrangement im trying to achieve with the coral placement :thumbsup:

 

[biggles]

I like this one a lot, i like them all a lot actually Rodney :thumbsup:

I don't like any monti's unless they have an acro or two stuck on them. Can you get a better pic of the acro that looks pink with blue tips in the last pic you posted, that looks very cool.

What is that frag you have that looks like it's pointing down........... what jedi trickery is going on.......:strooper:

 

[rodneyri]

Do you mean this one

That jedi is just a monti, using the force to make it grow where I want it to
