Great job!
I love the rock work.
Now you just need a few fish

johnlewis · 03-29-2004, 10:46 PM

what do you think of the MH on this tank i set mine up back in november but i went with 2 96w powerquads i think i was afraid i would need a chiller because of heat from the light. BTW very nice aquascaping it looks alot like how i did mine WTG.

caja · 03-30-2004, 08:31 AM

the halide is about 8" above the water and the top and back of the canopy are open so the heat isn't an issue.

as far as fish goes, there's 5 in there. baby clarkii, six line wrasse, neon goby, watchman goby and a bicolor blenny.

Nice looking tank caja, I really like the cubes. Nice rock work.

drdrew · 03-30-2004, 09:24 AM

do you keep that 6 line for flatworm control?

kennerd · 03-30-2004, 09:29 AM

Ideal little fishie for controling pyramellid snails on yer clams, too.

caja · 03-30-2004, 10:06 AM

no flatworms sighted as of yet, but as sponge bob would say...

I'm ready! I'm ready!

I bought him about 8 months ago just cuz he's a way cool fishy. my clarkii doesn't seem to think so tho. he has spent the last two days harrasing the wrasse, which is pretty funny because the wrasse is bigger than the clown.

drdrew · 03-30-2004, 10:12 AM

i'm thinking of getting one...to hopefully eat some flatworms...

but then again...if it wasn't for all the flatworm siphoning i do, i probably would never do water changes!!

Caja, looks great! I have been drooling over some cubes lately, perhaps impulse will soon give in...

I do the same thing you do Drew as far as very consistent water changes with siphoning. I will say that my 6-line's belly is constantly distended and so I am assuming it is taking out some of the population (I have never personally seen him eat a flatworm so perhaps I really do have that many pods in the tank).

Take er easy

Witfull · 03-30-2004, 11:43 AM

looks great!! i love the cabinet....was that a custom job? as far as the clam goes,,,they dont jump (subliminal messege to him....clams dont jump...clams dont jump.....dont jump dont jump!!!) how bout a close up of him?

VINA DEL MAR · 03-30-2004, 03:54 PM

Why is the clam so high up in the tank?
The tank corals and hood are nice!You might need a fan to exhaust some of the heat inside the lighting hood later on.
