Chris gets a frag tank! (and Hannah gets a couch) - Page 2

Thanks, but we have been trying to get rid of the ones in our 300 for years for exactly the same reason.

The damsel in the 60 is just for cycling. It was the only fish left in a tank we broke down for a guy last weekend (It came home in a water bottle, so we are surprised it lived).

Oh look! We got rocks...

Hopefully the light will be up by tonight

So a thing happened last night...

The entire setup looks so amazingly sleek and the over all effect of the hood and tank is very cool.

Hopefully some corals will go in tonight or sometime this week.

I like how Chris stuffed all that light into the hood. Cubes can be tricky to light. So where is the couch shot?

I helped get the lights in there too...

The couch is actually right up next to the tank

(it's kind of hard to get a good picture when the sun is reflected off the building next to us...)

Maybe a better picture is in order. It is really hard to get a decent angle the apartment is so small.

Wide angle lens! I know you have one, right Chris?

Actually I dont have a true Wide angle I need to buy one. Need to get something better for taking coral pictures too.

Christy can just come over! We have photogenic fishies

BirmanReefGirl · 02/23/2016, 11:09 AM

This is also an option! And then I can "borrow" a bunch of your asterinas...

Getting our new 60 ready for corals! We have some fish running around the tank already, and we have 4 testing corals (a zoa, a mushroom, a birdsnest, and a long branching acro) in. Just the LEDs and the T5s right now. Had fairly good poylp extension the past couple days. May need to change out our return pump, Chris is disappointed by the flow on this one (especially because this is supposed to be a SPS tank)

I call BS. That's not a couch. A couch is a place that you can sit on. That a staging area for reef stuff.

Hey! We sit on it....

....sometimes....

...it requires Chris to stop moving for more than 5 minutes....

....which is a lot harder than you would think....
