Finally got a video of my tank loaded on you-tube. Let me know what you think. It's still got a ways to go but this is the start.

The tank looks good. How long has it been set up?

kingsord0 · 02/25/2009, 05:51 PM

Very nice tank. I really like you aquascaping.

Cool Tank!!!
I love the ratio sand/rock/water......can't seem to get that in mine!!

stricknine · 02/25/2009, 06:52 PM

Very nice. What is the substrate? looked kinda rocky in the front. LR rubble?

awesome tank good job

Thanks for the replys. The tank has been up since august 08 but has been a slow go. The substrate is a mix of live sand,crushed coral and crushed shell. Had I known then what I know now I would have gone with all sand. I may change that out in the near future to give it more of a clean look.

I like the asymmetrical balance and the front to back taper on the right. Looks like a great space for fishes and a good flat top plus forward slope for coral display.

The tall narrow living thing on the left is a really nice touch of balance. What is it?

Thats xenia, and its growing like a weed. I,ve got 3 other colonys growing in various places around the tank from that one.

Great water movement also. How many pumps are you running, and where are they?

sdc19982002 · 02/26/2009, 11:05 AM

I have 1 mj 400 with sure flow mod on left side of tank facing toward the top and 1 koriala 1 on the left side facing toward the top. then my return. total movement is around 2000gph in display.
