15 gallon designer tank and 10 gallon softy tank

[jenniebutterfly]

yeah cleaning will be a bit of a challenge. well, the fron and one side should not be too hard i tried to keep the rock back at least and inch. but the bottom is the closest to the glass and the top is pretty far away. there is a hollow area behind the rocks where my powerhead is sitting. somehow i was lucky and it worked. three large pieces of rock and about 3 or smaller pieces and i was done. luckily they all fit like a puzzle i added sand, so now i am waiting for it to settle and i will post a full tank shot later

why'd you decide on thiS taNk jennie :scratchch

 

[herman]

Looking at this thread is definitely a motivator. Great pics, great tank and no problems. Im jealous!!!

 

[jenniebutterfly]

ink~ well, my sister in law gave it to me a few months ago, plus it is different. not everyone has a tank with these dimensions set up i also like the high rockwork aquascaping, so it works

herman~ thanks i was laying on the couch watchign the tank yesterday. then i realized something, i was very happy with it, and for me that is odd. usually i want to rearrange rocks all the time. i have had to tweak a few of the corals, and i still have some to glue down, but for the most part, it is done. i don't plan on adding anything else unless i can get my hands on a blue or pink sps coral. something small, but those are the colors, and i mean really blue and really pink but if i do, then one of the other sps will have to go

and a good shot of mine. a bit dark, but the lights were bright, soo....

 

[DRZL]

oooooo...I likes it!

 

[jenniebutterfly]

glad you like it see, sand is not evil i really like bb tanks, but in a tank this size, with this much rock, it would be hard to suck out any detrius that accumulates in the bottom

NICE Jennie! I am dying to get my new tank set up. It is killing me not having a tank

 

[ctxmonitor]

jennie, looks great.. haven't seen any fish in there yet. are they still hiding?

 

[jenniebutterfly]

haha he came out, camps on in the sps and on a single red mushroom. i will post a pic of him. still looking for 2 more fish that stay small

 

[jenniebutterfly]

ok here he is on his little mushroom. he is less than an inch long

Hey Jennie, the yellow clown gobies have been know to pick at/eat SPS polyps so i would just watch him.

 

[jenniebutterfly]

yeah he picks a bit, but they come right back out. he mostly hangs out on the mushroom now, and has ventured down to the sand once or twice lol

 

[jenniebutterfly]

well, i will update my tank thread later with some pics. nothing has changed much. and guess what , the rockwork is the same but i have been slacking on water changes so i have had pretty much no new growth. kinda sucks, but i have been busy and forgetful. i keep saying i will do it tomorrow, but it never happens. and now i have to go get my two cats from the vet since i just had them spayed/neutered. so tonight i should be posting sme pictures up
