on most of the pictures of the eel you can see him starting to turn blue on his left side behind his gills. there is a blue patch there now and is spreading.

This is the tank im setting up for there new home. Im picking up salt for it today and lights hopefully by the end of the month, along with alot of base rock and LR.

The radioactive dragon eye zoa has also gained about 4 polyps as well . it had 5-6 on it when i got it. It now has 9. 2 of them are hard to see in that pic becuase there in the back. also in the pic with the zoa, can anyone ID what that is next to it on the right of it? it looks like another zoa but IDK.. i have one more in my tank next to some xenia not shown.

Maybe the assortment of weapons on the wall next to the tank scared off any would-be helpers?
:uzi: :hammer: :fun2: :blown:

 

[jessp]

Hey Chef

With this new set up, you didn't mention what you are doing for a sump?

I believe you mentioned from the other thread that you had a HOB skimmer?

Know what you what the end result of this new tank to be. Softie, SPS dominant, FOWLR, etc, etc. and then make sure that your equipment matches what you are trying to accomplish. Upgrades cost money. It's best to do things as close to right as we can the first time around.

 

[pedromatic]

What are you doing for lighting? You're not seriously going to use that one little fluorescent fixture in the pic, right?

 

[REDDAWG43]

lol....could you imagine, thats the light he's going to use.

IDK Mel, this guy needs a lot of help. I'm afraid he might come after me with that ninja axe, though. Maybe with your military training you could fend him off long enough for us to get his tank set up. 1/2 jk

Just a little warning....Ribbon eels in the wild eat dartfish....So dont be supprised if your bar goby goes missing!!! Tank looks good, but I would still try to find something better for it to hide in or under. Like I said before, a big shell or some PVC would would great.! Good luck!

"this is the support he wants,nice Chef Reef tank looks much better now,and please man clean the tank before u take pics it will look better " <-- heh thanks cubano, thats what i was hoping for

lol.. There is one question i had up there somewhere. i was wondering what that was next to my zoa's on the right. its brown and looks like another zoa but IDK. i have one more in my tank somewhere else not shown. As far as the sump goes it will run a 10 gal sump untill i get everything trasfered over and then the 30 will be made into a sump. as far as lights go sadely i will not be using the little 16 watt 10 gal light on the pic im going to do PC's and 2-3 MH. havent decided on brad yet. im might grab the Orbit setup but i think that is t-5's and MH's. still undecided. as far as the HOB skimmer it can be submeressed but i dont hink it will be big enough for the 75 gal. i'll also be looking to upgrade that as well. as far as the overall stocklist of the tank id like to keep a few SPS and maybe a softie but mostely fish dominated. id like to keep a bucnk of smaller fish (not too small that eel can eet and not to much it kills the bioload). whenever i get to the aquascape of the new tank ill hide to PVC pipe in the back somewhere for the eel and posibly throw in a big conch shell IDK.

Aww you guys shouldnt be too scared of the arsenal.. thats only a small fraction i have about 250 different knives and swords Theres only 8 on the wall. .

Thanks for the support
