Lookin' good!

Gary what's the status of the 180? How about an FTS?

Working on full ricordia tank in progress 75gl corner. Might be better described as a ricordia dominated corallimorpharian tank with a few odds and ends right now.

It's like wall to wall carpeting. Wow.

I love Ricordia's. Awesome tank flricordia!

EMG, incredible growth! I really admire people who can keep pristine water conditions in small tanks like that and get that kind of growth.

They are all great

So get your tank out of hiding and show it off. Everyone's tanks are a work in progress and that doesn't ever seem to change no matter what stage they are at. This should cheer you up, here is what my tank looked like 3 years ago when I first set it up (can you tell I still had a FW tank mentality?) I thought the red stuff on the sand was kind of cool(cyano)

yes that is a plastic plantLOL

Current look(June 4 2007.

I'll have to say the plastic plant is a sexy touch. Good too look back on the early times, eh?

BigAl07 · 12-20-2007, 07:08 PM

Ok I'll toss mine in here... gonna do something like some others have and post a couple of first shots and a current one...

10g started in January 2007

Here it is after a couple of weeks (notice LOTS of live stock and corals... but NO NO)

Getting more mature and filling up... too much really

Last night.. showing the Frag Racks (they shouldn't be on the FRONT GLASS)

It's a work in progress at best...

vdituri · 12-20-2007, 10:19 PM

Does anyone look back at their startup pics and just shudder? lol
What were we thinking.

Thank you Bittner...(my son had a 4th grade teacher named Mr Bittner

)

The secret may very well be weekly water changes. I use tap water and I don't have a skimmer on either tank. I don't know what the tds is of my tap...but it must be pretty low. We get water from a community aquifer.

Craig Manoukian · 12-21-2007, 01:26 AM

Awesome Al!

justsunnie · 12-21-2007, 04:33 PM

I resized the FTS of my 46g. The tiny shot doesn't give much detail.

Melev · 12-21-2007, 08:56 PM

A couple of FTS from tonight. First my 280g reef.

And here's my 20g angled tank.

framerguy · 12-21-2007, 10:34 PM

Wow everyone! Very inspirational. Great stuff!
