Re: My 72g build

I have been away for awhile, we bought a new house, and have moved the tank since the last update. Here are some up to date shots.

For something that's suppose to be relaxing, you sure seem aggravated!

Why are your clownfish black and white? Were they cheaper because they're the wrong color?

Live Rock Rubble will do the SAME thing as Bio-Balls and is NOT a suitable replacement for BIO-BALLS in a Reef System! It's ALL gotta go!!

Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change.
Allen's home-made formula...currentNO3-((%WC*.01)currentNO3)=finalNO3 (thanks Luukosian)
This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%.

Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!

Re: My 72g build

Thanks Al and Vicki!!

A lot has changed, but I think the tank is finally starting to look "full"

Vicki, anything you like let me know, I'll frag it for you. I just got some new green leathers, and trumpets from a swap with another member. Other than that... it's the usual, my zoa's are finally filling out, so I will be able to frag them shortly.

Re: My 72g build

While I was in Florida 2 weeks ago I picked up some black/red mushrooms. They got sold to me as 4 heads, now I have seen 7, and 2 have moved, and in my experience, when they move... the old "foot" (for lack of better word) turns into a new one. So..hopefully 9 soon!

The frag next to it is also what I got in FL, if you notice on the plug, there are "star" shaped spots where something has cleaned it, that's my urchins, they like to mark everything with those markings

Re: My 72g build





Some oranges I didn't even know I had popped up out front one day, I never ever recall buying these, or trading for them... an urchin must have brought them out front of the tank from a mysterious place!




XL Pinks (Thanks Victor!) Growing like mad,


Front and center now

Some pink and green sparkles, also from FL when I was there.




From above.... when I got the XL pinks, about 2 months ago
