wade November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 Looks like you still have some of the cardinals. How many are still left in the group? Do they swim in the open with lights on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der ABT November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 Very nice pics....sorry to hear about the anemone going on a vacation....i really want one in my main tank but im too afraid of exactly that happenning. is that a fuge or a frag tank in the sump pics? im guessing a 45 cube or is that the 70g that the anem went into. Tank is looking good though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sachabballi reef November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 problem with nems is even if they dont walk they get so big and stretch out...I am constantly losing parts of corals that I have to relocate as they stretch out over 15"...they are gorgeous but total PITA in the tank....at some point I want to just set up a dedicated tank for this reason.... Well the tank looks fantastic so I guess its good that you got the chance to rearrange and remove it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsi1330 November 13, 2013 Author Share November 13, 2013 Looks like you still have some of the cardinals. How many are still left in the group? Do they swim in the open with lights on? Doing well and they stay in a group. They mostly stay on one side of the tank but near the front pane. The total I put in the tank was 13. Actually ordered a couple more but were DOA (got credit). I found one on the floor and the two have just vanished. So the group is holding steady at 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank is looking good though That is my 70 cube. That is my next project as it is not aquascaped. This will be my led test tank as I purchased 2 D120's. Should have the lights next week and going to rearrange rock work and flow as I am also installing a sea swirl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel bad for my clowns as they are still in he tank. They are trying to host in my clam currently :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sachabballi reef November 13, 2013 Share November 13, 2013 can you move them to where the nem went? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsi1330 November 13, 2013 Author Share November 13, 2013 very nice! How are you dealing with the humidity? Humidity is really only a problem in the basement and run a dehumidifier when needed. The upstairs tank is my office but next to a two story open foyer/living room and never had any issues. With the LEDS I will remove a 400w MH and will hopefully keep the basement in check.

corsi1330 November 13, 2013 Author Share November 13, 2013 can you move them to where the nem went? That is the plan but catching them is the problem. With all the corals and 25 fish it will be difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt November 25, 2013 Share November 25, 2013 Really love your tank...and I wish I had your carpentry skills and toys. Nice work all the way around. Looking forward to seeing this tank's growth over the long haul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanksTank November 25, 2013 Share November 25, 2013 I know I'm a little late but great job on the stand! That is some excellent work. Tank looks great, I will definitely be tuning in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsi1330 April 15, 2014 Author Share April 15, 2014 I purchased some branch pieces from the Ceramico group buy that Marcos put together. So I Thought it would be a good spot to update my build. I busted out my tile saw and started chipping away. A little nerve racking cutting an expensive piece and working around my most delicate SPS coral "red dragon". Going to move some corals around and may have to move the green efflo downstairs but I am pretty happy with it. Lmk what you think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkiboy April 15, 2014 Share April 15, 2014 dude, that's going to be genius use of some epoxy and that branching piece for some mounting of sps mini colonies or frags and added space for corals! nice work! what about all the other pieces you got? you're holding out on us!

Thanks, I can now buy a few more SPS from you :-) I do have 5 more branch pieces but going to dry fit those into a 120g eventually. I like that Red Dragon colony, the ledge looks sweet, nice work! Thanks, I seem to break a piece of the red dragon every time my hand goes in the tank. They grow fast and your welcome to a piece Very cool! I like it, looks great!!Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wade April 16, 2014 Share April 16, 2014 Nice! I say let the efflo grow - they look more natural when they run up against barriers (and other corals). Did you use epoxy or cement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
