Seano's 29g FOWLR to a full reef build[UPDATE 2/10/11]

Thanks 2 in 10.

 

Update!

Progress is coming along slowly.

I went to the LFS today to look around. I got 30 lb of argonite to replace most of my cc sandbed that is in the tank right now. I need to go to Lowe's tomorrow to get eggcrate before switching out the sandbed.

I also got 5 lbs of "dry rock". I added that to the tank a little bit ago after rinsing it. I'm not sure if I like the scape. I will redo it when I get epoxy to keep the rock in place.

Pics will come tomorrow.

On a side note...is there a difference b/w "dry" and "base" rock? My LFS was selling "base rock - $2.95 a lb". When I asked for dry rock for the 2.95 he questioned me if I meant base rock? He ended up giving me "dry rock" which he[an employee, not the manager] had in a box[the stuff I wanted] apposed to their "base rock"[which is kept in water filled tanks] which is what the price was for.

 

I've also noticed my CUC seems to be slowly disappearing...

 

could the bristleworm have something to do with that?

 

:-/ possibly...but I wish that wasn't the case. I like him. lol. Can they eat crustaceans?

 

Well thought out plans Seansko....looking real good so far. Your LR will form more of a "Peak"?

 

haha this thread makes me feel lazy for putting my 29 on my dresser lol...it is like 31 inches long though...i couldnt resist

 

Thanks. For now it looks quite a bit different than what's inmy most recent picture. I was able to get rock that sort of branches out. It actually looks kind of like monti corals in shape(lol couldn't think of another way to describe it).

 

Nice. I think it's all about the show. When the stand the tank is sitting on looks nice, the tank will look nice, even w.o. doing much to it. Now when the stand is nice & there's stuff in the tank, well the tank just looks even better(I think). Just my opinion though.

 

yeah i totally agree but i cant resist buying more cool organisms for my tank and better equipment:/
