Peninsula Style Look-Down Build

O/T

and i dont expect to get many replies to this but:

have you ever had ramen noodles? for those of you that have had the pleasure... well today, i was making some. and well, you all know that little silver flavor packet? THEY PRINTED THE TEAR LINE to open it ABOUT HALF AN INCH TOO HIGH and i was sitting there RIPPING THAT PACKET TO SHREDS trying to get it open...

15 mins later i get smart, grab a pair of scissors and cut it.

but its not the packet label that went wrong that disturbs me. its the fact that it took me 15 minutes to realize scissors would open it faster than thrashing it around by hand.

well i shared this with a few hobbyist via text.

since i have no real updates, i thought i would show a tiger i drew the other day.

sorry about the small pic. i can get a larger one soon.

well it happened... the brain lost almost of its colors except purple and green... and i little tiny bit of red and yellow due to the halides. i KNEW this was going to happen. im sooooo mad right now.

on a lighter note... blastos are puffy but still very pale. (also probably because of the halide).

the blue hydno is LOVING the halide go figure.

anyway it's about that time... i was wondering if anyone had a k2 propeller pump.... live rock.... and acros FS/FT?

thanks,
dan
 
New aquascape... im not quite sure i like it yet, but we'll see. (mind the corals... havnt found a good spot for them yet... and they are MAD from all the work done yesterday on the tank)

I tried to create an open look... yet at the same time, have it look interesting. its only 6.6lbs of Live rock

Looks good! Rock work looks cool so far. I'll be keeping tabs on this for ideas. I currently run a 20H but have been thinking about getting a 20 or 30 long going. So much open space.
 
Really cool Dan. Gives it a big tank look on a small scale. IMO a great nano has just that quality. Can't tell what size the tank is because the tank "in its totalitarianism" as a whole, is so captivating. Judging from your previous endeavors, you're new project is sure to impress.
 
thanks. hopefully i will have some corals soon...

oh and i found out that my SG has been at 1.019 for the past 3 weeks... im an idiot. ive slowly raised it to 1.025 over the past few days. corals already looking better.
 
sketch 2:

here are my future goals for this tank... acro wise. i hope to grow out a number of acros to fill the scape. later monti caps to fill in and such.

white scribbles denote possible acro placements

i sketched this to make sure the minimalist scape i have... will be enough.
