To start off here:

Hey there,
I'm hoping to do a major rehaul this summer where hopefully my tank will look less like an explosion on the reef and more like a carefully crafted layout.

Anyway, here are some pics at least of the corals

EH...that's all. There is more than that in the tank of course...but no pics
Need batteries...

ok...a real update

some pics from the way back...:

Now pics from what I did this weekend in prep for the swap:
Had to take out all the coral frags/etc and I set up a 20gL to hold them in.

Me wow'd by how many heads my dendro has now (6 HEADS BBOOOYYAAAAH)

And this is what my sump looks like at the moment. I'm only running part of it right now as one of the seams has a leak at the bottom and is annoying. I've added a hang on skimmer and whisper 60 to replace the fuge/skimmer area for now

Here are some pics of the tank minus most of the corals:

Some pics of micros :

Now some pics of what I did to the tank:

Btw, I don't know how many photos I can fit per post, so I'm creating new posts as I think 'it's too much'

 

[tunicata]

That's the gist of it. I have to get ready to add in sps...SOMEWHERE in the tank. I have some rock that didn't fit in, so I'll put them together and see what I can build for the top of the tank so the sps have a nice home. I think I'm getting like...7 different sps frags?

 

[EmilyT]

Chanel, nice swap prep work. There are going to be some very lucky frag recipients from your collection. Everything looks so happy in there.......even with a big hand holding them :biggrin:

Looking forward to seeing you again at the swap.

I didnt see any xenia in there.....

 

[tunicata]

Marki, the xenia is glued to the TOP back wall of the tank. It is actually visible in only one of the pictures in this thread, and even then you can just barely make it out. That is why I told you I have no pictures of them, I usually don't see them when I'm standing 'eye' level with the tank as they migrated up to be more in line with the high water mark.
