Some shots of my saltwater nano

[puffcrusader696]

Thanks, coming from someone thats had a tank longer than me, I take that as a good sign that I haven't screwed anything up too bad yet. I also have pulsating xenia in there (not captured in pics) and it was about to split, and then just completely reversed and is smaller, if it starts to 'melt' it will meet the trash.

lol my xenia looked like it was melting and the blob sat there for a few days and then split. its splitting again and it just finished splitting a few days ago lol

Nice! I like the snail. Oh man, one day I will go SW.. How many gallons is this nano tank?
And how much live rock did you use?
Everything is looking good bud, keep it up

Haha thanks, it says 12, although I don't remember putting that much in, wouldn't surprise me if it's closer to nine. It's really my favorite tank at the moment, because I can just keep adding on corals, and won't hit the limit for a while(except my lighting, and additives when I choose harder ones). As far as rock don't really recall but I would say close to ten, theres quite a large piece that you don't see as the cave piece rests on it. I think I want to redo it somewhat making it more of a mountain, and thus in turn giving me more room to work with, as well as add some more rock because I just recently found it cheap local. Most likely a planted tank is in the works for FW in the future, because I haven't done that or brackish yet.

I do agree, later this week maybe, picking up some more stuff hopefully this week, and added quite a bit more (mostly clean up crew) allready, and will a rearrangal in the works, don't really want to post before then.

Haha thanks, that department is however pretty much maxed out allready in this setup unfortunately.

Thank you as well. The back piece I had to wait a month on, as the lfs had some fish make it a home, and I had to wait till the fish sold, but I was extremely persistant and got it at the end haha. As far as most of it though, I need to start dosing to boost coraline imo.

Yes, and like promised, here they are.

The leaks? reseal it. Thanks for compliment as well.

In these pics:
New layout
bumped up the clean up crew by quite a bit
got some more buttons i think (lfs bagged other than what i asked for)
new mushroom (crappy last pic)
a plate coral (we will see how this goes, don't really have light or dose for it, however it was free)
purple star polyps (like green, except purple).
and you can see pulsating xenia (in right corner)
Got a koralia, to elminate deadspots, but the flow is too high w/it, so idk what I'll do. Also, candy cane always looks better than pics, it was touching the gsp and annoyed, so moving it caused it to retract, and shortly after i took pics.
You can also see flatworms in the pics, however that bloom is on it's way out, as well as the algae
Bulbs getting replaced very soon too.
