Thanks all. Glad that you enjoy them. Always fun to share with others who appreciate both the livestock and the photographic aspects as well.
Recty - man all my Gobies get that way...your's don't?
RB - well, I liked the layout with all the color. Took a bit ot tweeking to get them to compliment each other position wise. Amazing all the things that go into a layout really. SOmetimes I step back and look at the collection and feel proud. Though, like when I built the main Photography website you have to look at deal with the same images over and over so you sort of get bored of them. They lose some punch. That's why it's nice to spring them fresh on folk like you who just see the polished product.
Thanks Doug and TS.
Rob - thanks, and nope. All PT's
. Though, you could find a job up here easy if you wanted. Probably anywhere in the US I imagine.
Thanks Blktang.
swjim - it's a 75 gal I drilled myself with (2) 1" drains (on with a gate valve on full siphon so dead silent) and the other as a backup/overflow. I have a light canopy that had two 150MH bulbs and 2 VHO's given to me. I stripped out the MH and put in 2 T-5s (not even using the reflectors yet. Will install when I put it over the 120. So, 2 Actinic VHO's and 2 T-5's (B+'s). There is a Eheim 1262 to a wavysea and a Vortech at about 50%. Used some acrylic rods and base rock from Bulkreef supplies for the "reef". Running a Tunze skimmer (had a Euroreef RS-120 that for some reason I think was responsible for 3 floods (unhappy tenent downstairs - yikes). WIll probably try that skimmer again when I go with the 120 gal this summer. The stand was store bought and then I trimmed it out and made it taller. I also recessed a DA Reefkeeper 2 in the front panel of the stand. That's about it.
The tank was set up about a year and a few months ago. Been doing quite well except for the rampant Valonia and a few rouge Aptasia's
. I just recetly a few Monitpora frags in there and they are taking off and looking good.
