Reefobsession 93 Cube Build!!!!

Well haven't updated in a while. Got home and everything looked great. Fish and corals. My salinity only dropped to 1.023. My refractometer wasn't calibrated correctly. Lost my black onyx clown. Mitch is a great guy and is going to give me a new one. I think there was something wrong with him after being in the shipping box for two days. He wasn't eating and was swimming just bellow the surface all the time. Could have been a swimming bladder issue. The Picasso is doing great! I am relieved that there was no damage to the stand or carpet. It is a little damp, but it is coming out.
 
so how is that skimmer working out for ya? by the way, nice tank

Thanks the skinner is working great. I will get a pic up in a couple of minutes. I think my sitter accidently messed closed the air valve on my skimmed while looking for my missing clown. I am going up to. Mitchs house this week to get another clown.
 
This is only 12 hours

I am going to go.get another clown on Friday. I can't decide on a onyx or a Picasso. I would have to add for another grade a Picasso
 
how high is that stand? It looks a little low. I was thinking of getting that stand, but it looks a little short. Also, if you have time, could you give me the exact footprint measurement of the aquariums base in case I build my own stand?

The stand is only 27" tall. The reason for this is because of the tank dimensions. Since the tank is 30"x30" you couldn't fit the stand in a doorway if it was over 28" tall. A normal doorway ie 30" wide without the door on the hinges. So there is only around 28" to work with the door attached to the hinges. I agree that it looks short in pics, but in person it looks a lot better. Plus. It would be hard to work on the bottom of the tank with a taller stand.
Ill pm you tom when get the exact measurements for the tank.

Got my clown fish today. He is a really good looking onyx. He is about twice as big as the last one i had. has some really nice markings. I will post some crappy pics tom of the new clown tom with my crappy camera phone. Lol
 
Here is a pic of my new clown I got from Mitch. I love his markings and he is a lot bigger than the picasso. No fighting for dominance what so ever. SO far they are a happy couple.

Really nice! I wish I could see an accurate picture of what the coloration of your bulb looks like.

Is dosing MB7 on a timer really going to be effective without turning off the skimmer?

Thanks. Yeah I need to get a good camera. I will be getting one soon hopefully.
 
looking good. glad everything is working well!

Thanks, I didn't realize how crappy the pic of my jawfish and wrasse was until now. lol, I need a camera so I can stop using my crappy phone.

If only I wouldn't have dropped my fiancés camera in the sump. lol:hmm4::hmm4::hmm4:
 
Since I will be working in Indianapolis this summer, I will need a smaller tank to hold my corals and some of my fish. I got a extremely good deal fro an elos mini, sump, skimmer, return, ATO kit, and a LED E-lite I am really excited to own a high end tank. The elos will be higher quality than my current tank. haha I will post pics this weekend when I get my tank and clean it up.
I need to upgrade my photobucket, I have exceeeded storage space.
 
I dunno, I will probably sell the elos at the end of the summer. I am going to build a nice stand for it.

I don't know what is up with my photobucket pictures. Bandwith was exceeded in the month of March. I can upgrade for unlimited for like $1.50 a month.

Anyhow can't wait to get the mini. Who knows what tank I will keep.
 
:thumbsup:Well here is a pic of the baby my 93 cube had today. My cube must have made love to one sexy tank....:thumbsup::thumbsup::love1::love1:
I will be building a stand for the elos. Everything was in great shape. Just a couple of scratchs, but they won't be seen with water in the tank.
Heres a pic.

And as I was driving today, I took a picture of this cloud that looked like a dog chasing a ball. I know it was dangerous, but really cool.
