andy Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Here's my current tank (60 gal. mixed reef), my first in 20 years. I'm also blogging my progress at my site. Used tank: Cabinet too short! Skimmer wouldn't fit (scratch) : Okay, add headroom: Hood and lighting need fixing up: Getting better: DIY Plumbing and overflow: Ballasts sanded and repainted: Skimmer modded to use needlewheel pump: ZOMG! Finally setting up! Live rock added: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 New Pics Full tank shot, horrible exposure: Turns out I had more than one Acro crab. I guess this little guy lost the battle for the good home: The leather I got from Mike. Polyps retract late in the day: The Green Torch is a monster, the Red is working on it: Green algae crop almost ready for harvest (enforcer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael7979 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Hey that leather is almost always retracted. Seems to only open up every third day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
