Pics of Canadian SPS Tanks

Ok, so my 275G Starphire SPS tank thread went pretty well and I was thinking lets get the rest of Canada's SPS tanks all in one thread.

As with most threads in the forum, lets try and keep the focus on SPS but in the event you have a spectacular zoa or LPS in the mix throw it in. Even a SPS aficionado can appreciate the odd non-SPS shot right?

Please post your pics and who'd tank they came from .

I will get it started with RC member KevinFJB's tank. I was over at his place this last weekend and he has got some sweet SPS.

OK I am Dave (250G)...but all the corals illustrated in the pics in this thread belong to Kevin Barry (KevinFJB) here on RC. Not sure what he has available with regards to frags, but I know I am in line

Bugger - post some pics of that primo stuff you were speaking of...show it off then I will be right over

I will be posting pics I took of Carl Swaby's tank shortly so stay tuned. Crazy stuff.

Another Candian Beauty!

Ok this is Carl Swaby's Tank. Great guy and another sweet Canadian tank. This tank has so many acros I couldn't even take photos of all of them. Must be over 100 different acros in there! You can also check out his tank out at www.reefvideos.com

bugger - I will send you PM, I will be around for the shipments before the holidays. Kevin will be bringing me some frags the week after Christmas but send him a PM here on RC to see what he has available.

Check out Carl's stuff! Sweeeeet.

Bonsai placement is mid-tank, between a 250W halide and a 400W halide

I jealous too! However my frag is expected to arrive next week so that makes 250G REAL happy

and unfortunately it's the slowest growing SPS I've ever had...started as a frag and has taken almost 2 years to grow into a small colony

thanks for the pics Dave
