TB's 67g custom project

[Rougiem]

TB:

Great Idea on the top off set-up. Could you PM me a list of materials? I can see most but this would be a great idea for my school tank. :bigbounce :bigbounce :bigbounce

Cheers!

howdy

i totally slacked off w/ the updates. my apologies. the tank is progressing quite nicely. I finished up the aquascaping (added the rest of the LR) and added a bit more in terms of livestock. =)


Here's the most updated full tank shot (as of last night):

I adjusted my white balance for this actinic-only pic of these crazy zoos...

As of 6-3-05, I added another prop tank (bought it used for only $45). But this one does not run in-line w/ the rest of my set-up.

As of 6-19-05, I added a seahorse tank in-line w/ the 2nd prop set-up.
It's an acrylic 15g hex.

of course I need to cure more LR to fill up the vertical space, but it's a start at least.

Oh, and the 2 seahorses are captive bred Reidi - a male-female pair.

Currently being fed a mix of live enriched brine w/ frozen foods. Trying to get them on frozen foods completely.

for some perspective...

 

[Tigahboy]

okay, I think we're all caught up now (see previous page for the first part of my update). =)

WOW!! Great job! Everything looks very nice. Thank you for the update. One day I will have a seahorse tank.

 

[Craig Manoukian]

Great photos! I have the exact same "clown bed" as you. Mine looks more orange.

Looks Fantastic TB!!!
Your ocellaris looks pretty comfy...
Added a prop tank on 6/3 and a hex on 6/19! All I can say is WOW. When do you have time to study
Your whole set up is top notch :bigbounce

 

[mnreefman]

youve been busy!!!

Thanks for the update Tigah, you sure have been busy! Quite a setup you've got. By the way, how are the dispars doing? I was also looking into getting myself a school of anthias in the coming week, and its between dispars, lyretails, and squarebacks.

Just thought some of your insight might help my decision.

Also, is that a Powder Blue tang that I see in one of your pics?

 

[Tigahboy]

thanks for the feedback, guys! it's been a very busy month. =)

jk - dispar anthias are fine. they just dont school AS consistantly as when I first got them. But they are amazing to watch when I feed them...talk about a feeding frenzy!

I think they don't look as interesting as the lyretails, but for whatever reason, I heard they don't require as much space so I stuck to the dispars.

And yes, that's a PB Tang. =P

 

[Newt]

Tigah, Good to know about the anthias, I think I may stick with my initial choice and go with the Lyretails. I was also thinking of a PB for my tank, but many said it shouldn't be done in such a small tank, especially when keeping a reef. I think as long as he's doing good as well as your corals, more power to you, I may try it anyways,lol. Yours looks beautiful, keep up the great work!
