GreySoul's 58g Tank Scroll!

ok so I don't know if anyone else does this... but I got bored tonight and made a long scrolling image of all my full tank shots I could find. I know I have more to fill in the gaps, I'll bump this when I update the scroll.

The images are still pretty small, I plan to make a larger one (high bandwidth) from the source images soon... but this is faster to work with.

Enjoy!

great idea Greysoul

It does get purplier and purplier.

 

Wow, that's awesome. Nice job. Love the tank.

 

Added new shot, 4/20/2010, One year anniversary!

Edit: might need to force refresh if you don't see the new one... hit ctrl-f5 on a PC, mac users are on your own

edit 2: _MUCH_ larger image file for anyone who wants to see it... 1400 px wide on this one:

Love it! Wish I'd kept a better photo record of my entire set up. But yours is looking fantastic!

 

I really like the tank scroll idea. I like the one year photo. I try to tell people that a reef tank grows but most don't understand. Your photos might help.

 

Great progression and tank

 

Thanks guys! I had no idea going into this how much the tank would change with essentially little to no interference. I feed, I add livestock, I do a WC every few months....

The rock blossoms with life, the fish breed, the corals grow, and everything is changing all the time. NOTHING like my old FW tanks. I mean, a planted tank grows for sure.... but live rock and corals? ... WOW.

I plan to add a new shot every month or so. The 180 build will have a webcam on it, and I intend to animate things more. I just don't have any highspeed at my shop where there 58 is, so I can't really stream anything from it.

I am thinking of a way to make a mini ROV wet web cam. for the 180. Imagine bweing able to explore caves that normally only fish would have access to? I have software already that would let viewers to the site control the movement.

 

That sounds awesome.

Like the progressive shots. I had the idea to put mine in sequence like that some day as well, so have taken a lot of photos. As it is they've still changed quite a bit in the few months they've been up.
