Water tests are all bang on..
All tank tenants are eating well.
Not planning on adding anything for quite a while....I think he's spent enough money for awhile...just going to settle in my chair and watch things develope.

Good luck and welcome to RS! BTW, the stand came out great.

bigbratt · 12-28-2007, 10:16 AM

It's the 4th one he has done and he improves his design with each one he's done.

althea2you · 12-28-2007, 10:20 AM

yeah its a pretty stand that for sure!!!!

bigbratt · 12-28-2007, 09:09 PM

He does have a 140g FW tank which as been up for about 3yrs, and is very easy to look after so I think that he is finding mine more interesting right now. He has always wanted one, but it was not until I was asked from a friend if I wanted a 33g that we really thought about having a reef tank as well.

Maybe Mr Bratt could be persuaded to post his FW for us???

Hello all, Mr Bratt here. Thought I would say thanks and yes I could post a FW shot or two.

bigbratt · 01-07-2008, 02:24 AM

Just a little update. Tank is doing great, didn't get a noticeable cycle after adding the 10lbs of LR and new sand. 1 of the cleaner shrimp did go missing right after putting it in the tank...never to be seen again, so I don't know what happened to him. I've upgraded the power head to a Hydor Koralia #4 and taken out the maxijets that I had in there. Having a little problem with microbubbles, but I think that we will be redoing the sump to correct that problem. I'm finding all kinds of new life in the tank..some of it I don't know what they could be. It looks like little fry but I can't get a really good look at them as they are in the rock the anemone is on and they don't seem to come out, I don't know how it could be because I didn't see any eggs and the only fish I have more then one of is the blue/green chromis....unless they were aready there when I got the rock with the anemone on it. Anyway more to come as I add to the tank.
