reef progression photos

[reefkoi]

I wanted to show the 1 year ago and current photos of the same view. I'd like to update it yearly, and anyone else that has progression photos feel free to present them here, I love seeing the changes in a reef tank over a year or 2 or 3

Your tank is very nice and has progressed very well. I really like the large sea fan...

 

[reefkoi]

thanks eric I am amazed the sea fan has lived, I never see them in tanks so I was leary of buying it.

 

[reefkoi]

I'd like to see full tank shots of todds (racer69) tank. I think he has had great growth.

 

[racer69]

I'll get some up after the lights come on today. I think we need to see everyones. Joe you have been up for about 11 months, lets see some pics. Eric, lets see yours with that hugh anemone. Russ what about you, haven't seen any recent pics in a while.

 

[Deuce67]

Sure. I have to wait till the lights come on.

 

[reefkoi]

yeah I want to see yours too russ, its been a while. BTW no call from fedex yet, my guess is no corals coming today

 

[Crit21]

FedEx doesn't deliver on Saturday. I'd call the warehouse.

 

[reefkoi]

yeah its back in LA so "no corals for us"

 

[racer69]

Chris, I posted in the thread Russ started. Less reading more pics...

[reefkoi]

:lol: dan you are the man

 

[Crit21]

LOL. It looks ok, but sometimes I'd like to scrap it all and start over. Too bad they don't make a computer program that lets you plan a reef tank the way you can plan a house or landscape.

Chris, love the color of the new bulbs!!! I was thinking about a large koi pond in the back yard sometime next year... Do you have any links for good reading? I don't have any pond/koi experience at all...

 

[reefkoi]

yeah go to http://members4.boardhost.com/koimag/
You will see all the top guys here, read for a while before posting, its a high end gathering place. Its nowhere near as much posting as Reef Central, but great info.
I have books also on Ponds, I get so many people asking about how to fix all of their pond problems, so inviting me over for a drink and picking my brain is an easy way to get started
I've learned the hard way and can steer you the right direction.

reefkoi do you know of any website that sells sea fans?

 

[COreefer]

^^^I think your best shot is to find a LFS that will order you one. I don't know if ordering these online is the best course as you would prbably want to inspect it before buying. Just my .02

ok thanks
