Frankie's 120gal. glass experiment

[Frankie]

What a beautiful carpet Frankie ! Can't wait to see the growth with the new CR :whstlr:

Heh, I take it you didn't read the anemone thread. I lost the carpet today. It was on its way out and i decided not to let it pollute the reef and pulled it.
Not to sure i want to get another yet. I need to focus on corals

Waiting for pictures!

Hi Frankie, I can't believe I missed so much about your tank! Too bad about your carpet! Looks like you are going to have an exciting day today. Your corals will love you so much. How's the fish catching going? I caught my tangs by making them very hungry and then feeding them. They focused so much on the food it was easy to net them. I only got one per feeding, but they all were eventually caught that way.

Have fun today!

 

[Frankie]

I haven't started yet Lorraine. I am going to wait until this weekend when i don't have to worry about running out to a job or something. My new flooring company has exploded and I feel like a fire man on standby! I did buy new nets for the catch though

 

[Frankie]

Just arrived! Here is a picture. I will be posting the setup in my lighting thread.

Coolio reflectors!

 

[BigAl07]

Those are SWEET looking reflectors.

Who manufactures those reflectors Frankie ? They look really cool, are they lightweigh like the regular spider reflectors ?

 

[Craig Manoukian]

Yippy skippy!

 

[Frankie]

I am not to sure of the manufacturer Robert but there very lite. I will get some pictures later of the completed light upgrade. It came out awesome! I have the MH's on a weekly digital timer starting at 4 hours today and working up a half hour per day for 7 days. I think that will be good for acclimating. I can't get a good shot now of the setup with the halides on because of the brightness. When they kick off it will be just the T5's.
I am very happy with the way the moon lights came out also. Pic's tonight!

hey frankie just checkin in to say the tank is looking fantastic...i cant believe how big that sun coral has gotten..it is huge compared to when you first got it. nice!

 

[Frankie]

Not the best pictures but here are the [SIZE=-1]Amphiprion akindynos[/SIZE] trashing my tank during their unusual spawning dance. My daughter was up all night trying to clean the rock off with a turkey baster. Such a good girl!

 

[AQTCJAK]

Looks like you have your own excavating crew

 

[Craig Manoukian]

Can't wait to see pictures of the eggs!

 

[prow]

hehe, dont you just love it.

 

[jhnrb]

Nice choice on the lighting system. you should really like the dimmable ballast.

 

[Scooterman]

Looking nice Frankie, I bet your tank likes the lighting improvement!
