WOW!

Tank looks fantastic!

Just one thing, the view is very "blue" compared to the 130, is that the turbidity of the water due to all the disruption, or is it the effect of the actinic light tubes ?

Does it look that blue 'in real life' or is it just in the photographs? I had the same issue when I took pictures, they came out very blue, until I adjusted the White balance on the camera, which then gave it a more natural coloured photo

Great looking tank by the way.

It is considerably more blue than the 130 was, i've put it down to a combination of the lights and the micro bubbles which we are suffering with at the moment

We are finally producing some decent gunk in the skimmer. the new tank has been running for four days now and it seems that the skimmer has finally settled in and we are starting establish a biological system.
Everything seems to have survived the transfer, if anything has suffered it is probably the Pulsing Xenia which are looking a bit miserable. I'm fairly confident that they will recover. (Hoping)

 

[Reefmack]

Good news on the skimmer. Some would say that you're lucky if the Xenia don't make it LOL!

 

[tnwillia]

I'm one of them!!!

A quick visit to the LFS today and Sarah couldn't resist two new fish.

Heres a picture of the Coral Beauty, but the Peacock Wrasse has found himself an exceptionally good hiding spot for now.

Also heres a new picture of the tank after week one. The water is a lot clearer, and not as "Blue" as it was.

Tank is looking great! What's that fish (?) on the left side of the picture? Love the angels! Hope they all thrive in your tank! Take care,

Nice looking tank!!!

Thanks Kyle,
The green fish on the left is an Aptasia eating Filefish. He is relatively new to the family and being quite small he didn't touch the larger Aptasia which we zapped with AptasiaX, but he does control any new growth.

 

[Reefmack]

Looking good! Nice Coral Beauty!

 

[tvreaves]

Your tank is beautiful. I really like the coral placement.

 

[redsea reefer]

Very nice additions, tank and pics!

 

[Dweezil]
