Show your Reef!

[seesick]

Sorry I have tried to take a full tank shot but they all look like crap. The pictures don’t do the tank justice. Think I will need to get better with camera… I will keep trying.

Im sure your tank looks awesome ..quit being humble ..I want to see which ones you got from ken!

Here are some shots that I took. Not the greatest. The tank is a work in progress.

Looks awesome. Love the rockwork and the placement of the corals. What sort of lights and flow do u have in your tank?

 

[seesick]

Thanks for the compliments. I believe flow is one of the most important things when it comes to SPS. Currently my tank is a 72 gallon bow front. I have three vortek 40’s and three Tunzi Nano Streams. Needless to say, there is a lot of flow going on. The rock work inspiration came from one of my buddies in the coral crew. He goes by crazyforacros on Reef Central. He coined the name bonsai reefing (bonsai like the tree). He believes in large open areas and to treat your tank like it is a bonsai tree visualize your aqua-scape in your mind and make it happen once setup only making small adjustments to the tank, also the tank is never finished its always evolving, growing and maturing. You all may want to look up his thread he has one in the SPS forum and in the reef discussion forum. It’s called bonsai reefing or something like that. At one point It was the November thread of the month. Check it out its cool…

Also XmanXdadX we are going to meet Feb 5th

CC note: Thor the Coral Crew misses U

What type of lights and flow. Well just imagine the most and then imagine more and that's what he has. The tank is awesome

 

[skallywagg]

I'm there for sure

Thanks skallywagg see you on February 5th . One disclaimer: you and Reign leave your hammer, chisel, bone-clippers, and drill at home. The corals are still recovering from the last time.

Oh Yeah SkallyWagg last night when we had one too many and broke out the saw on that Aussie Acan (Acanthastrea Lordhowensis) and cut it into about 7 pieces is doing well today. The polyps are out on all of the frags but one. So it looks like there will be plenty of Acan’s for your new cube and Xman-daddy

The Coral Crew boys are old-school Hammer/chisel oh ya--- we will use a band-saw or dremel tool on LPS. We are not mid-evil

 

[reign]

I would Like to be there , however unlike most of you I don't have weekends off anymore(hopefully next schedule bid). I have been trying to get ken over there with you guys..I'll catch up with you guys sometime

 

[Gomer]

Which bandsaw do you use? I got a DB-100 a while back. 90% of what I have is LPS (was 95 till I got a couple zoas today lol). I lost too much tissue with dremel destruction
