Doratus' 40G - updated 4/29/2012

beautiful pics ,,tanks looking very nice !!

 

Thanks again for the positive feedback.

Yes, that is a bubble coral and I've had it for exactly 1 month and 3 days.

 

Just wanted to share a couple of updated pics. The tanks is almost 5 months old now. All the kinks seem to be ironed out for the most part.

 

That's good to hear, looks good! How often do you get a chance to sit back and look at it?

 

Not very much admittedly. I am a student and I work, both full time, so I don't have a lot of free time. I also like to pretend that I actually have a life, so after maintenance is complete that leaves very little time to actually admire the tank. When I have visitors they are always amazed and that is what makes it all worth it.

 

The tank looks killer! Love the rock-scape, very simple, yet really natural looking.

 

Awesome setup! That open brain is really cool

Just a quick update with a not-so-great pic. As you can see I am still battling nitrates, hence the diatoms (cyano?) in the substrate. Plus the whole thing is kinda messy and cluttered at the moment because my clown pair is trying to make a host out of everything in the tank. I'm constantly moving things around in an effort to save my corals!




Thanks for lookin!

 

Look pretty good. Darn clownfish. Clam looks really nice as does the brain. It's a beautiful tank.

I believe what you are battling is cyanbacteria, unless you have added new equipment. Anyway yes getting the nitrates down will help with the cyano.

 

Looks pretty good.
