WheresTheReef September 2, 2018 September 2, 2018 I dont feed anything in the tank except the fish.. although I do feed LRS pretty heavily.. so I am sure they get some... The red one is a goniopora the green and purple one is an alveopora.. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Thanks. Do you have an idea of the par levels they are thriving at?
GOSKN5 September 2, 2018 Author September 2, 2018 Thanks. Do you have an idea of the par levels they are thriving at?I dont know the par levels. Although I can tell you it is relatively low. I have had the red one at various levels and it did not like high light or even medium... it's now almost shaded by the big gorgonian and has never looked better.. I run fairly low light overall..

GraffitiSpotCorals October 25, 2018 October 25, 2018 Awesome tank! Are you feeding anything to the corals or just feeding the fish? Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk
GraffitiSpotCorals October 25, 2018 October 25, 2018 Nevermind I see you use lrs food for the fish. Sent from my Moto Z (2) using Tapatalk

GOSKN5 December 12, 2018 Author December 12, 2018 Will be starting a new build thread soon!!Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
Origami December 12, 2018 December 12, 2018 Great upgrade! The extra length of a 180 is really nice to have compared to the 120.
malacoda December 13, 2018 December 13, 2018 Sweet upgrade. Very jealous. Can't wait to see it develop in a new build thread. I don't have the space to go that large in our current townhouse, so I'm looking forward at the chance to live vicariously through your build pics.
GOSKN5 December 13, 2018 Author December 13, 2018 Thanks yall! Yea I'm stoked...Long story short.. I have always wanted a 6 foot tank. I love fish and watching them swim the length of a tank is literally my favorite thing about this hobby..About a year ago I bought a brand new 125 from my LFS.. had it drilled, brought home, plumbed it up, filled etc. And it leaked immediately... I was so frustrated I got a refund and set my 120 back up... said I would never do it again haha.. welp here we go... I couldn't let go of the 6 foot tank dream haha.. I pray this one doesnt leak (I will be testing it first haha)Hope to have it wet by mid January or so. Gotta build the stand and get a few supplies!Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
GraffitiSpotCorals December 13, 2018 December 13, 2018 Awesome! Are you going to stock even more corals or just let what you have grow out more? If your going to stock more what are some of the pieces you have your eye on or wish you could get? Your tank is up there with the best softy tanks I have seen, great placement and species choices.
GOSKN5 December 14, 2018 Author December 14, 2018 Well I appreciate the compliments man! Unfortunately, I sold a BUNCH of corals for two reasons... To pay for the tankTo simplify the transfer process I kept my large gorgonians, red goni and big green leather (although its not doing well for some reason) So there will definitely be a bunch of new corals added... I considered going heavy SPS... but that just isn't my thing... likely will be extremely heavy on zoas, mushrooms and softies.. probably some montipora, favias and euphyllia as well.. also considering some macro algae as I have always incorporated them in when possible... (if I can do tang proof varieties) Really excited about the fish opportunities as well.. planning open, low rock work with the gorgonians providing the height Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
