NoobtoSalt Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 I've moved basically everything over now to this tank. Transition time wasn't too bad. will be doing my first regular water change today on the tank. I moved the clown fish and the anenome over to the tank a few days ago. I finally moved the two cleaner shrimp, fire shrimp, leopard wrasse, and the rest of my corals over today. It already appears that everything seems to be happier in this tank. I'm still not sold on the aquascape but we will see what I decide to do in the next few weeks. I'm sure it will change. I'm still deciding on powerheads but I now have a reef keeper. I'm borrowing a powerhead right now from OIAB and it seems to kick out a ton of flow so I may just run two of those for the time being.

TRENT Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Tanks looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 Tanks looking good. Thanks. I still don't like the aquascape I did for it though. I've got all sorts of tunnels for the fish to swim around in so I guess I just need to get more corals to cover up some of the rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 Here's some pictures taken with the new camera. Still getting the hang of it. Not near the great quality I was looking for yet but it's all user error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeFit Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 its really starting to look nice, are you still working on the rock work? Time to get rid of those VHO's and get some T5's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew's tank needs some T5's first before I swap the lighting on mine. I will probably stop in and talk with you about his tank tomorrow.

NoobtoSalt Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Well I had a few fish not make it recently so I decided what better thing to do than to get some more.. Ok well not really but the fish that I got were probably going to continue to cause me issues so I decided to go another route. I grabbed 4 Banggai cardinalfish and 2 bi-color anthias. I missed my anthias when they died from the marine velvet kick in the last tank and Cos hooked it up today so I couldn't say no. I've never had the cardinal fish but they just looked cool and I wanted a schooling fish in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhowe Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Cardinal fish are pretty cool. They move around pretty fast when they want. They seem to like brine shrimp. Had trouble getting them to eat pellets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gill Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I like the new fish ;-). Did that black sponge come in on the new rock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 I like the new fish ;-). Did that black sponge come in on the new rock? Sure did. Still not sure if I like it or not. As long as it stays place on that rock and doesn't spread out more I'm alright with it for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoobtoSalt Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 I had to rearange the left side of the tank. I pulled about 20-25 pounds of rock out so i could get the carpet nem a home. My lord acans are pissed at me right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
