Since I'm in a photogenic mood, I thought I'd post pictures on this thread for the first time. Below is chronological order of FTS's since I started on my adventure. Personally, I find it is great to take many photos of the journey as it's very satisfying looking back.

You can see that I went through many stages with hair algae, bryopsis, corals and in particular their placement. This is a great tank for beginners and the advanced.

Overall, you will notice PATIENCE is the key!!

Enjoy! For more pics and info you can see my thread.

nanoreefing4fun · 06-15-2009, 04:01 PM

This was exactly how my tank progressed too and what is considered a normal natural progression of a cycling rsm tank, we just all hope to have tanks with as pretty ending pictures

Reefmack · 06-15-2009, 05:59 PM

I always like to see these tank progression pictures - good job of illustrating the typical phases of maturation.
