heres some pics the tank looks spotless!!! but I;m not happy with the set out just yet looking back I think my tank looked better with the toadstool and big xenia

anyhow first pic showing how dirty it was

after a clean of the glass but not of the tank

and tonight after everything has settled although the finger coral isn;t stuck in properly and the organ pipe has fell off, I'm not happy with the plate montipora the rock has moved on it

Look at the size of this riccordea its huge and takes over most of rock

the trumpet has been damaged when the lobo fell on it killing some heads

I love these two corals don;t know what they are one has an aspttasia comin from bottom

My favourite green zoa has been taken over by a horribe brown zoa!!

I may have a rejog and get a couple of different corals in there, could do with some colour or height at the top. Any suggestions?

That is stunning. Bet it cost you a arm and a leg

setting it up cost a few quid and when I;ve workedit out more than I would have wanted to spend lol
I;d dread to think what a big tank would cost

 

[jameshughes1989]

to the salty side of the hobby and TFF Tony, we are happy to help you

I have a colleague who may be selling the same tank (if you are close to SS in Essex) - let me know and I will ask him.

How about starting a thread about your plans, in reef chit chat? Or even better a journel

no problems and glad to hear you liked the journal

I;ve enoyed the reef but due to personal circs and a need for money I'm selling mine off , just advertised all the corals, already sold the trumpet, organ pipe and hammer and my riccordea floridae

will do it again on a bigger scale in the future!!
