Alec's 40gal breeder chronicles!

Lol I have seen a few pretty big ones that ruled their tanks. This is the last fish ill be adding, so hopefully that will force him to integrate right off the bat ya know. He's a smaller guy too, about the size of my male clown. One thing about them I didn't know.. They seem to love mini serpent starfish haha. When I had my last mystery I guess I didn't have as many stars then, now they're all over. So I think the days of their little legs coming out of every crack and crevice are probably over haha.

 

Here's a couple better pics of the new guy. Along with a shot I snapped of my lil mini shroom garden I thought was cool

 

Great pics. I love that wrasse. It was going to be my main fish in my 125.... until tangs happened

 

Thank you! I don't blame you lol, if I had a bigger tank I would go tang crazy.

 

Here's a few recent growth shots. I'm pretty continuously moving things around, trying to get them in the best spot. There's still a few things I haven't gotten figured yet but I'm getting there.

There's an weird knob lookin piece on the right side of the red planet there. Im interested to see how it grows out

Just moved this one last wk. It's ORA Oregon Tort I'm pretty sure.

The tequila sunrise Mille on top there I just moved around, it's getting brighter by the day. Along with the meteor shower, purple cap on the right, and the ORA frogskin there at the bottom

My little LPS outcrop.

I take all these pics with an old iPhone lol I really need find someone I know with a better camera. These pictures hardly do the corals justice. Anyways. Enjoy.

 

Tank is looking great! Is that a lobo in the corner below the wrasse? Love the color on that.

And the wrasse too...

 

Thank you! Yes its a lobo.

 

I have 2 super actinic 2white 2 Fiji purple 4 blue moon LEDs and 3 white moon LEDs over my 10 gallon reef and pico tank each 39 watts I have a 150 watt metal halide but the ballast blew and im to cheap to buy another ballast it gave the best results I have ever seen if you do end up getting one get a 20,000k. I wuld sugjest the ecotech marine radion g2 if you go LED at $650 its has the best quality mabey you can find one on craigslist Itl save you money in the long run on electricity a metal halide would add at least an extra $20 on your energy bill.

 

Shooot I won't be upgrading for awhile. Thanks though.

 

Looks fantastic.

If it's not broke........

Glad you still have the mushroom garden.
