Hey folks. For you hard core MFKers I'm sure you've seen the Red Sea posts by yours truly and I've decided after having moved a few good size 80+gallon tanks around I will make a photo journey of our swap between nanos. Sorry to have to photo forum posts so close.
Gearing up for the swap I've moved all of the little predators out of my 60gallon, and hooked up an extra skimmer after churning the sand to let it help filter stuff out for the next 3-4 days. Pics of that will follow.
On the other end we've begun beefing up our stocklist of coral for the new tank. These include:
Blue open brain coral
Blue zooanthid
Branching Sun coral
4 inch frag off of a Red and Green Favites.
Pics of these will follow once I retrieve the camera this evening. The whole point of this journey will be the interesting (I think) as moving a long running nano system into a new system is nothing shy of a pain in the butt. Due mostly to the fact that everything must be kept warm and submerged, and of course that growth of corals is hard to regulate in a contolled pattern.
Pics will hit in about 12 hours and continue through sundayish. Thanks.
