Virtual tank tour anyone?

Well done Craig its nice to see your tanks doing well again. The pond on the other hand looks amazing, a real slice of nature in your back yard. BTW you guys make photography look way too easy.
 
Cool looking tank. I really like the hammers.
If the rain made the picture of the pond look worse then in person there must be a halo of light shinning down on it from the clouds.
 
Thanks guys,
Yeah I was pretty pleased in my tank till something started killing my old standby purple birdsnest. It is right next to the anemones so I was thinking that was the issue but no. I may break that whole piece apart and start again. They are 2 birds nests and a digitata. I just hope its not those nudibranchs again.
PS always have frags of the green hammer if anybody wants them. I will bring some to the next meeting.

I need to update the pond thread as the fish are getting bigger and I think that one of the bluegill is pregnant. I will video the bass feeder goldfish massacre too. Pretty impressive!
Grant your photos are awesome not sure what you are complaining about!!

Craig,

That rbta looks sweet. Is it just one big one or multiples together.

Btw should I bring a 2wt or 3wt with woolybuggers or poppers? Barbless of course. LOL. Oh, had a great time on the opener on the McCloud. It was packed. Caught a lot of fish :D

I know there's more i forgot to mention.

Just dosing B Ionic and Magnesium. Everything is growing really well. I feed Oyster Feast and Roti Feast every few days and do weekly water changes.


A few days ago i took out all the live rock and live sand, replace with new sand new rock and new water...( got bored of the rockwork and wanted to set up a 50 gallon fish only LOL.) Everything lived and is doing great. I used API Quickstart and i'll probably continue to use this for as long as it's available on the market. I've set up a few reef tanks and added corals to it right away.. i've probably only lost one SPS and that's because it fell on an acan. I never get ammonia or nitrite when testing the water after setting up a new tank and nothing ever dies so i guess it works :spin2:


Anyway, here's more crappy cell phone pics :lol2:

I'm definitely not done with the rockwork and coral placement yet. Just giving the corals some time to adjust a bit before moving stuff around again.
