steve's 5 gallon nano reef

now that would look cool IMO
the only benefit with glueing onto the small rock rubble is I can then move things about for a short while for aesthetic reasons. when I like how they look, then they will colonise the adjoining surfaces

every day i seem to notice that i am the only person on 3reef with a reef that doesnt have zoanthids at all. thats kind of depressing. lol

 

I started at the bottom of my tank also because I ran out of room on my rocks.... :

 

Gah, as if I didn't need another reason to start the nano I've been wanting. Darn you Steve, darn you to Texas.....

 

years ago, Id have honestly said, who needs them, we only had reds, browns and greens and none of these centre and edge 2 colour varieties to choose from, nowdays every colour of the rainbow is available in a relatively undemanding and easy to propogate coral species , they cant over run a tank like GSP or Anthellia as you can pick them off and either set another tank up or trade them , great things to have IMO

That means these annivesary images are going to rock.

Texas offers some really good food from what people on here have said recently, so thats not such a bad thing IMO LOL
Get it set up slocal, and share the experience with us

Hah....I NOW have no zoanthids in my 150...Thanks to my Masked Rabbitfish!!..So you are not alone!!;D;D. 5 colonies..GONE!

 

Ok Steve..UPDATE....I am starting to come out of the Diatoms also. In the Picotope. I still have 1 original Chromis. The other died, and then I added a Orange Stripe Chromis. He lasted a week, and died out of the blue...???. So I think the tank is telling me only one fish. I am ok with that. I think tomorrow, I will test params. If all good, I will add crabs, snails, and maybe a small zoa. (Since I can no longer have them in the big tank). I will post new pics tomorrow, if I make that move. Yours is looking great!!

 

You know every day i seem to notice im the only one on 3REEF without a reef!!!!! kinda depresing. lol

 

nice tank

 

Thanks Robman , Ill check it out , look forward to seeing some coral in there .

Oakvad, it will happen, you cant hang around on here to long and not feel the need to set up a reef tank, or another reef tank , its contagious!
