I do LOVE those green rics!!

DrHank · 01-15-2008, 09:56 AM

Yea, that was on day one. I'll try to get a new picture up. They look much better now than when the last picture was taken. They are one of my favorites too.

DrHank · 01-16-2008, 08:07 PM

Here's a picture of the rics after they opened. Please ignore the frogspawn in the middle. I wouldn't have added it but there are two rics attached to it's skeleton.

Lighting is 150W DE MH and PC actinics.

tbittner · 01-16-2008, 08:23 PM

Wow! They look HUGE!

Craig Manoukian · 01-16-2008, 09:03 PM

Beautiful corals!

DrHank · 01-16-2008, 10:08 PM

Thanks folks. I really loce them!

kathywithbirds · 01-16-2008, 10:20 PM

Hey DOc, nice!!! So the ric roc is really becoming de rigeur, ay?

I like the froggie in there, adds contrasting texture. very artsy.

DrHank · 01-16-2008, 10:25 PM

Thank you Kathy. I'm glad to see that you aren't having to play Mike to get back in on RS any more. It's actually a collection of rubble that I've put next to each other. I'm trying to take a lesson from flricordia and see if I can generate some more babies. I'm going to add more rubble give it a bit of time and see what happens.

I've got two rics growing on froggie's skeleton so I guess they will get along. They could have chosen another spot after all.

Dentoid · 01-16-2008, 11:21 PM

Looking good Jim! I'd like to see more pictures. Those rics are breathtaking!

DrHank · 01-16-2008, 11:28 PM

Scott, I'll see what I can do. Haven't added a lot to the 155 yet (in the way of corals or fish) but I'll try to get some good shots of both tanks.

Ooooooooo, those are very nice looking. I like the frog spawn in the middle, it adds a little texture different.

flricordia · 01-17-2008, 09:35 PM

Those are nice Doc. Now I need to find out where you live and the hours you are gone...

So now you have 2 at home and 1 at the office? I am going to have to make it over that way soon. Maybe after the upcoming meeting I can follow you since it would be on the way in a round about back to the house.

DrHank · 01-17-2008, 11:12 PM

Sounds like a plan however after discussing things with the wife I may be selling the 210. Two tanks at the house is one more that I really want to take care of. Also, we like the bowfront better than the 210.
