my biocube 14

i love it ;D

only thing is it gets hot so im going to order a fan.

 

Yeah nanos are tough when it comes to heating up.. just bought a chiller. Was so sick of comin home finding 1/2 gallon evaporated outta my tank from my fan. Looks good. Can't wait to see how your corals improve under MH's.

 

update

just got back from a 2 1/2 day trip to great America theme park. was a lot of fun. today when we were coming back we stopped at aqualife aquarium again lol it's just right on route so it's perfect.
I got 4 types of zoas, and a sweet looking mushroom (maybe ric? can't tell because it hasn't opened all the way up but I'm thinking mushroom)
for $40

a cleaner shrimp

8 nassarius snails (but i got 3 of them free because they were hitch hiking on one of the zoa rocks)

12 blue leg hermits (got 2 as freebies)

and some live rock

still battling the algae so ignore the bad spots of hair algae and such.
here are some pics but they came out a tad blue

new full tank shot


button polyps


mushroom (ric?) thing


hard to get a good pic but i think they are fire and ice zoas or something similar


this rock has a lot of these zoas popping up places



the guy at the store thought that they were maybe devils armour but idk not familiar with those


and sheen the cleaner shrimp lol

 

guess i should have waited a bit more

look better opened up plus
i got some hitchhikers on the rock



def. a mushroom


a little better pic of the zoas that i think are devils armour


these guys have long skirts


little hitch hiker mushroom!


its cool on the two pieces of rock i got there is about 2 hitchhiker corals that i can see possibly more to pop out we will see. lots of sponges. and feather dusters so it was a good buy .

 

Nice steals! Those button Palys and "Devil Armor" will grow like weeds!

 

oh sweet
i knew the button palys would but i had no idea about the devils armour ones

 

I'm not sure exactly the name, but I have those.. I bought 8.. in a month I had 24. My tank has suffered the last month, because of heat issues.. some of them melted away. I have a chiller now and added a sump/fuge.. within two days they perked up.. so I expect mad growth the next couple of weeks! Yahoo!

 

lol no way my frag is 8 polyps

not ready to invest in a chiller yet
im just sticking with frozen sunny-d bottles

 

Those zoo's look to be "armor of godds".Nice tank.I started out in a 12 gal nano tank.Then got bigger and bigger.Now i'm trying to build a 200 gal tank.Just wait you will get the bug to go bigger.It never stops.Good luck.I may get back into one just for my high end stuff

 

naa i like nanos plus
a 200 gallon isn't exactly within a 13 year olds budget
