Ben's 400l Wet Thing

[SkiFletch]

Looks nice indeed. Seems like you're starting to win the algae war

Those clowns look great in there. At least you now have some fish that are on display all the time.

Looking nice.

Yes they are ace, the other fish are out a hell of a lot more now too. its actually quite rare the tank looks as quiet as that at tme minute

Looks nice indeed. Seems like you're starting to win the algae war

cheers mate, yeah i think im winning. theres still a spot of cyano on the sand and a bit on the rocks but it looks ok at the minute.

Think a camera will be added to my already extensive shopping list

I thought the others may settle and come out more once there other fish around. Cannot go wrong with clowns though, they never hide, even sleep where you can see them.

Camera would be good Ben

I somehow missed the FTS Looks nice, if a bit empty, ATM That Coraline is really taking off isn't it

 

[ben1987]

Cheers mate, Theres 15 corals and 5 fish, just looks empty doesnt it!

Im probably goping to order a few bits in from the LFS in the next couple of weeks.

Want a purple plating monti. then some other nice coloured frags

 

[seffieuk]

Ah, but an empty tank means lots of planning and shopping trips, heaven

[rabbut]

^^ A point well missed by me What sort of stuff you thinking of having ordered?

 

[ben1987]

im not sure yet.

SPS frags of some description

i want
green / purple plating monti
pink hyserix
some monti digitata in diff colours

it may be next month now though, il be splitting an order with my mate. Then we can half the postage and i babysit his corals as hes only home at weekends. But hes away with work on search and rescue training all this month. Messing about with a helicopter basically

 

[TigerIssey]

I am getting most of those next month Ben. There is someone on UR in Warrington that sells for £5 a frag.

If the hirsuta is ready, will be getting that too. Am getting 2 more Seratioporas too.

 

[ben1987]

i have this one alreay ^ its fist sized at the minute

I will frag it for you once its settled more and me and my mate sort this frag tank thing out soon. Not really got anywhere to let a frag settle just yet.

 

[TigerIssey]

I do like that one.

Getting S.caliendrum, S.guttatus, pink hysterix, purple digi, pink digi and purple plate. Looking forward to getting them, will give the tops of the rocks some more height and will give an interesting top view too.
