mosheikh September 20, 2006 September 20, 2006 (edited) Here are some pictures of my new 120g tank. I dont have my metal halides yet, hopefully I will get them and install them this weekend. Heres where I started from...72g Tank, no sump, used tap water, power compact lighting.. Seaclone 100 Skimmer Re-aquascaped.. And at one point, my tank looked like this because of WAMAS. But things started going downhill and my LPS started dying, softies were not extending, mushrooms were not expanding... Then I broke down my tank, bought new lighting, skimmer, pumps, ro/di unit.. After a year, I broke down my tank once more, and now I am with a 120g tank. 120g Pics.. Mohsin Edited September 20, 2006 by Weap0n_X
dhoch September 20, 2006 September 20, 2006 I love the cave... but you are right it needs more than that little light system... Dave
mosheikh September 20, 2006 Author September 20, 2006 Thanks. Right now I have a 24" Flourecent lighting that I had laying around. This weekend I should have 2 250w PFO DE Pendants up. I will post pictures of them this weekend.
flowerseller September 20, 2006 September 20, 2006 How come the clown fish stays in the same spot in the last two pictures?

Ne0eN September 20, 2006 September 20, 2006 Your lamp looks really thin... Are you feeding it Nori or the flake food? -- Rob
mosheikh October 7, 2006 Author October 7, 2006 (edited) Sorry, but I do not have any under the tank pictures yet. I will get some soon. In the couple of weeks, I have added my two MH Pendants, and added 2 fish. Here is the current Fish List: -Powder Blue Tang -Yellow Belly Hippo Tang -Naso Tang -Sailfin Tang -Potters Angelfish -Midas Blenny Here are the updated pictures: Mohsin Edited October 7, 2006 by Weap0n_X
jamesbuf October 7, 2006 October 7, 2006 Very nice. I really like the aquascaping. Has any of the fish claimed the cave as its territory? What megapixel camera did you use to take those pics?
dschflier October 7, 2006 October 7, 2006 I would love to know what camera you used as well. Good job on the aquascaping. Nice job in showing from begining to end.
mosheikh October 8, 2006 Author October 8, 2006 (edited) Thanks. The Powder Blue Tang goes through all the caves, but I think it has claimed the cave on the right side of the tank. All the other tangs just follow him around. The camera I am using is a Minolta Dimage G500 5.0 Mega Pixel. It's a decent camera, but it is not great. Mohsin Edited October 8, 2006 by Weap0n_X
mosheikh October 9, 2006 Author October 9, 2006 No, It is going to be a Mixed Reef. I plan on adding some corals next week from the meeting. Mohsin
guppychao October 9, 2006 October 9, 2006 No, It is going to be a Mixed Reef. I plan on adding some corals next week from the meeting. Mohsin tank looks great, just curious are you using 2 different lights? one 10k and another 20k
mosheikh October 9, 2006 Author October 9, 2006 tank looks great, just curious are you using 2 different lights? one 10k and another 20k I bought the pendants used, and the bulbs came with it. So I am going to order new 14k bulbs soon. Thanks, Mohsin
squiddly October 9, 2006 October 9, 2006 I bought the pendants used, and the bulbs came with it. So I am going to order new 14k bulbs soon. Thanks, Mohsin VERY nice. Impressive!
mosheikh October 23, 2006 Author October 23, 2006 I just tore down the rock setting today, and took out the remaining fish to be caught. It took a while to make an aquascape that I liked. Right now I am letting the water settle and I will see how it looks in the morning. Mohsin
HowardofNOVA October 23, 2006 October 23, 2006 Mohsin, Tank Scaping was looking good, do changes S-L-O-W-L-Y! Allow the tank to age before you do a drastic changes all the time! Look forward to seeing the latest update!
mosheikh December 26, 2006 Author December 26, 2006 (edited) Update.. I finally took some pictures of my tank with the new aquascape, corals, and black&white ocellaris pair.-- Thanks Dave! In the next couple of days I am hoping to add a Rose bulb anemone, and a few more corals. Pictures.. Edited December 26, 2006 by Weap0n_X
jason the filter freak December 26, 2006 December 26, 2006 (edited) Stats man stats, whats your set up? Nice lookin though Edited December 26, 2006 by jason the filter freak
rsaavedra December 26, 2006 December 26, 2006 Moshin your tank looks awesome, but I liked the old aquascape better...
mosheikh December 26, 2006 Author December 26, 2006 Haha, Yeah I would have loved to keep the old aquascape. But I had to tear it down so I can quarantine the fish. Also, it would have been kinda weird putting all or corals on the top of the rock setting since thats basically the only area where you can put corals.
davelin315 December 26, 2006 December 26, 2006 Hey Mohsin, cool to see the clowns in your system. Looks like the one that was hiding under the rock has colored up nicely, hopefully the frayed tail has made a full recovery, too. I'm excited to see yours in the tank since they look so cool, can't wait to see mine in my system sometime in the next year!
mosheikh December 28, 2006 Author December 28, 2006 (edited) The one that was hiding has colored up very nicely. I kept feeding him pellets soaked with garlic, mysis, and flakes. The frayed tail has also recovered. I hope your tangs are doing well! Edited December 28, 2006 by Weap0n_X
