Looks real nice Sybil. Why dont you try to have green star polyps grow on that bottle instead of zoo's. It would probly happen alot faster.

Well now that summer is over... and we're more homebound.. time to resurrect this thread.

Tank is doing well.. we lost a few corals over the past few months but nothing major and basically because they flipped or were knocked over and I failed to notice until it was a few days if not more later.

The snails have multiplied.. there are baby snails all over the place, not like they are taking over but there are quiet a bit of them.

The bottle was tossed finally as it just became a PITA and a hermit got trapped in it, after that I felt bad and got rid of it. (Got the hermit out though--tiny lil' booger)

I know.. I know "Where's the pictures" "This thread is useless without pics"... I am going to try and put up a few a bit later today once the lights come on.

Ryan-- funny thing... everyone says star polyps are the devil and multiply like crazy, those are the only things that we cannot seem to get going in here. They are exactly the same size they were when HOF had given them to us and rarely open up. Everything else happy as a clam (hee hee). Those are happy too.

I have moved those damn things all over in the past several months and nothing. Oh well. I guess I should count my blessings?

Watermelons (Also from HOF tiny lil' frag from the start barely covered the disc.. now practically covering the rock)






Snail races anyone?????



These guys found the anemone in less than an hour in tank. The other clowns we did have went MIA a few months ago...


An emerald..running from the pistol shrimp.. he went in the wrong rockwork to get something to eat. LOL


Pistol Shrimp.. getting huge..

Beautiful. Keep up the great work

Your tank has helped me decide on which tank I am going to get.

Man now I want to go out and order it already, I really need a raise.

Once again very nice.

Russ--- Thanks for the WB! I popped in from time to time to check in and lurk here and there... but time is so limited lately. Still working on getting a clone


RaSooch-- Thanks. It really is a nice tank. We've been very happy with it. Size wise no complaints other than we'd have double the amt. of gallons if we had the room and $$. All in all though this size fits well into our tank budget and allows us to splurge from time to time.
