I see it getting full to the brim after the fragswap

Awesome lateral swim room and plenty of nooks and crannies to influence fish to seek refuge rather than jump to safety!

ok well not much updated on here for the last 3 months or so, since i was fighting algae over and over again...

well i recently removed all corals and cleaned the tank this past week. I just turned the lights on yesterday and to see all algae gone, it might be too early. But it is a nice relief to see and makes me feel good to have a 450g tank in the house!!

here are some shots:

Wow Billy... at all that space is amazing!

How's that Sohal behaving itself?

blue_eyes53813 · 01-09-2008, 09:07 PM

I hope the algae is gone for good... What did you do with all the coral?

Frankie · 01-09-2008, 09:14 PM

Looks good Billy!

mps9506 · 01-09-2008, 10:10 PM

I hope the skimmer does the trick for you Billy. Fish look great, can't wait to see the tank filled back up with sticks.
