Comments welcome!

james37128 12/24/2007 07:55 PM

you should add a few of these to your gallery

nanO352 12/24/2007 08:28 PM

Which ones do you think are good enough to go in the gallery?

Illuminati 12/24/2007 10:15 PM

The clam doesn't look happy in that picture and 99% of people would say they have no chance of survival under the stock lighting. Plus you have a fish (Flame Angel) that is notorious for picking on clam mantles.

Other than that looks o.k.

nanO352 12/24/2007 10:47 PM

I know what you mean about the clam and that same week I brought him back to the pet store.

james37128 12/25/2007 09:07 AM

If a pictures is good enough to post in a forum its good enough to go in your gallery, but dont look at mine for an example.... I don't have my gallery set up yet.

nanO352 12/25/2007 11:11 PM

I will keep that in mind next time I add some pics. I'm about 1 to two weeks from getting my new metal halide light. What are some easyier sps corals? Are acro,& monti's good starter choices?

nanO352 12/26/2007 12:37 PM

My tank has seen hell the last few weeks. I lost all my xenia and now some rouge animal has chopped my feather duster in half. I will have pics on later.

Does anyone have any ideas about the HYdro Korolina pumps? Are they that good or is there a better choice of pumps.

nanO352 12/30/2007 06:03 PM

Why doesnt anybody comment back?

Illuminati 01/10/2008 05:52 PM

Because your tank sucks....

just kidding :)

I have a 24g nanocube and at one time had a similar stock list (Neon goby, Clown, Flame Angel & YWG). Loved the Flame but it died for some unknown reason after a month. Never had a clown goby, their reputation for laying eggs on SPS corals was enough to make me rethink them.

Nice looking monti cap, I have a purple one and a green with blue polyp one, nice corals that grow very fast.

What are your future plans for this tank? More SPS?

nanO352 01/10/2008 06:17 PM

Yeah a lot more Sps. A little bit more of every thing. My tank might suck but at least I dont have a tank like Fish.Nemo!

black_majik 01/10/2008 06:36 PM

That tanks looks good, but probably not for too long unless your a violent water changer.

You have a tad too much livestock especially the tang, the hippo should be fine in there until 3 or 4 inches when he will need to be upgraded also herbivores are very messy they eat and poop a lot ( due to the low nutritional levels in algae) That will add a lot of nutrients to the tank. The clown goby is fine, the clownfish or the flame should go too if you want to keep the SPS healthly, from that I say you have a nice tank, but it is overstocked with fish. Also keep on eye on that umbrella mushroom they shrimp and other inverts. They will lay out and wait once the invert walks over the tissue the mushroom will close up fast and look like a ball, but inside its stinging tissue is killing the invert and swallowing it in its mouth. My umbrella tried to eat my cleaner and still does, but my cleaner is smart and takes three steps on it and backs off and when the mushroom is in a ball shape the shrimp eats the food laying under it, I don't know if your shrimp will adapt like mine.

Tank looks very good, especially with the new light. I'll be upgrading my 14g biocube lighting soon to HQI.

Hopefully you have plan soon for the Blue Hippo tang as he will need a bigger tank very soon. :D

Good job!

nanO352 01/10/2008 07:25 PM

Thanks guys. I know about the tang. I'm about to begin plans on a 50 gallon and just keep going from there.

nanO352 01/10/2008 10:16 PM

Hate to say it but he umbrella died quite awhile ago.
