My learning experience

yungreefer2410 · 08-20-2008, 06:13 PM

my first reef started off bad. i started it with ro water but unknowingly use tap water for top offs. i had algae problems but now i have everything under control. My tank is about 9 months old. when i started i was a total noob but now i know a lot more. pics soon to follow.

yungreefer2410 · 08-20-2008, 07:20 PM

thank you. i will try to post more older pics soon so u can see the difference. the cabbage was one but i fragged it and now both of the frags are as big as the origanal piece was

Nice tank! You have such a tiny colt compared to mine, but the fun is watching it grow!

i wish i had a six line, but my tank is maxed out with fish.

yungreefer2410 · 08-20-2008, 10:31 PM

i was wondering what it was it was about half that size when i got it a month ago for $5 at lfs. it just looked cool so i got it. i really want some rics. i'm getting a frogspawn sometime this week. the six line has amazing colors

i also have an orange striped prawn goby who is about 2 1/2 years old. hes kinda shy.

What size tank do you have?

yungreefer2410 · 08-21-2008, 05:38 PM

a 29 gallon. i know about the tang. i'll be uprading to a 55 gallon in a couple of months

nikkipigtails · 08-21-2008, 10:49 PM

Sorry, but a 55 gallon is still too small for that tang.

yungreefer2410 · 08-21-2008, 11:47 PM

i have been told this also. when he gets to big i am going to trade him back

yungreefer2410 · 08-23-2008, 01:02 PM

today i'm picking up a frog spawn frag for 10 bucks. i'll post some pics as soon as it gets in the tank.

yungreefer2410 · 08-23-2008, 09:27 PM
