Your tank looks great! It's come a long way. Good Job!

Yesterday morning I saw the crab on the left side of the tank. So I decided to take down the left side of my aquascape to take the crab out. I wasn't sure if the bottle trap would work. Haha, yeah right. It was a pain to get him out. Unfortunately the crab died. After I took all the rocks out, I couldn't find the crab. So I shined light in all the holes and eventually found him. He wasnt coming out the rock, so I just had to pull it out. I can try.

Finally caught him....

Aquacontroller?

Theres a thread on Reefcentral where most of the female Bartlett Anthias turn male in a short period of time. Here it is.. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthre...hreadid=1132189

I've had the tangs for ~ 5 days now and they try to "tail whip" each other but its nothing serious. I was expecting them to do this when I bought them. Their aggression towards each other will die as time passes.

Yeah they look pretty nice. One thing I don't like about them is that they eat alot! I'm most likely going to keep only 5 or 6. Haha Thanks bro. Thanks. I'm hoping to add more fish over my spring break. Your new tank looks awesome. Can't wait to see some udpates. Heres a picture showing the new reflectors..Not a good picture, need to adjust the camera. FTS Mohsin

Thanks, I'll try that tonight. Haha, yeah I'll let him know whenever I catch it. I hope soon.

Yesterday I found a large black colored crab, big claws, and hairy legs. 3.5" atleast. Heres a picture.. Any ideas on trying to catch him? I looked today, and cant seem to find it. Thanks, Mohsin

Random pictures..

Thanks James! You ordered some as well right? How are they doing? Haha, Thanks! I actually used purple primer on all of the pvc pipes. Another Update... Bob came by today..Finally got my canopy back.... Just kidding.. Thanks again though for helping me out tonight, I really appreciate it. Heres some pictures of the reflectors mounted onto the canopy. Tomorrow I'm going to buy mozel connectors? (Sorry Bob, I already forgot the name..haha) I'll take pictures of them fired up in the evening. Thanks, Mohsin

Awesome tank! Can't wait to see it running with water.

Just came back from BRK. Thanks again John! Fish are acclimating right now. Pics. Both tangs are about 1.5" Mohsin

It didn't set me back at all, I got money in the bank.

Thank You Howard once again for all your hard work! I received 10 Orange Striped Cardinals.. Here they are under no lighting. I'll post more pictures once I get my new lights installed in the canopy. Mohsin

^ They're Lumenbright reflectors.

Thanks Howard! I can't wait to add the fish from the BZA order tomorrow. Another update.. Today I received my new lighting system. Cant wait to fire them up!

Your tank looks beautiful! How are your Bartlett's Anthias? I'm ordering 5 from BZA, just wondering how the fish arrived. Mohsin

Your tank is looking really good. Nice aquascape!

I went ahead and ordered Lumenbright reflectors, Reeflux 12k bulbs, Coralvue ballasts. Should be coming in this Friday.

Nice tank Ali! The way it looked before and how it looks now is really mind blowing. It would have been cool if you had pictures of how it looked before. Make sure you keep it clean this time around.

I got rid of all my livestock including the clowns. I'm using a Mag 24 pump. The return pipes are pointed towards the rock and behind the rockwork.

I re-built the right side of the aquascape so it can flow with the other side. You can't really tell from the pictures but if you see it in person, it looks crazy. Pictures.. Ride side of the aquascape looking out to the other side... Next weekend I plan on adding a couple of fish.

Nothing has changed from the last update. This weekend I am going to rebuild the right side of the aquascape and will post a FTS on Sunday. Well, it all depends if I sell the MH fixture. I'm looking into buying 3 Lumenarc Reflectors, but not sure what kind of ballast I should get. As for bulbs, I think I'm getting 2 12k Reeflux Bulbs, and 1 10k Reeflux bulb in the middle. If I sell my fixture I will let you know if I need to modify the canopy, if not then I will go ahead and keep the fixture for now. Lumenarcs.

Very nice tank! Looking forward to see more updates. Mohsin
