Ben's 400l Wet Thing

[TigerIssey]

I would say a ###### fine Torch myself , frogspawn would be like this

See how the branches are really forked.

Yours I would say is Torch which is Euphyllia glabrescens. I want one of those.

Looking nice. You sure that new pump is nem safe though? Sorry, I get paranoid about pumps with nems after my little incident with a BTA...

Loving the videos

yes, I think someone did it's a TORCH!!

Thanks for the video of the nem - it was funny, looks like it thought, hey-up, what's going on here then, started to move, then thought, oh, actually I quite like it

I was wondering about the price of the Polario I have decided to sell the wavebox and so am looking at alternatives - my Nem would hate that flow, so will probably stick to the Koralias or maybe streams.

That is mighty nice of you.

Looks like you found out who told you that before though. You cannot get it past any Euphyllia lover, we know which is which, as half of them live in our tanks.

Hopefully by that time I may well be able to frag some ACTUAL frogspawn for you in return.

Stop mulling over Saturday's result Ben and give us a FTS

I hope so mate, i had a look at it when i first got it out. The main guard bit is quite big...then the actual turbine bits are a fair way back in the pump. So if a nem was to get minced it would have to fit a long way into a small hole. So far so good anyway.

 

[ben1987]

AS requested by BigC

And oh yeah...i remember that thread now seffie

 

[TigerIssey]

So do I dare ask this question, is this the final scape, or will it be tinkered with again??

 

[ben1987]

im pretty sure il mess again. Not so happy with it!

 

[TigerIssey]

It looks really good in the top picture, its the bottom one that is not so pleasing I think. The top picture probably is the angle you can see from the tank whilst scaping.

Did you give up on the cave, I thought that looked really really good from the low angle. As you said to me about my scape, it gave somewhere for the fish to appear from hence making it seem bigger.

 

[ben1987]

yeah, i am happy that theres loads of caves and swim throughs. With overhangs etc al over. Could do with a bit of height tho. I was on my knees looking up for the 2nd so it does look a bit odd. I reckon some nie sps grown out a bit ontop would look nice though/

 

[TigerIssey]

The SPS growing on top would be amazing, would really llok like a reef flat viewed from above then.

That Blue haze Acro looks stunning, that would just top it off!!

 

[ben1987]

i think i may just have one ore two small acros, then dominate it with montis. They are hardier and faster growing. Might buy something over the weekend
