Smann Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 Steve what T5 frag tank? I see no frags tank... I see a tank with cleaner shrimps and couple fishes' date=' corals.... look more like a displace tank :-)[/quote'] Here you go, cleaned the tank up bit. removed all the rock ,frags and scrubbed all and returned. Quite alot of coralline algae on the tank already. This tank has the 400w 20K MH light Most of the corals are out of my main tank, a few I have bought While I had the tanks down I switched the return loc-line from 3/4" to 1/2" you can see the reducer. I had made the first tank 3/4" then the second 1/2" (why, I dont know) so when I ran both off the same pump I had to reduce to balance the flow I switched to a new bulb awhile back and it looks like the hair algae has slowed after cleaning.

Smann Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 UPDATE Haven' posted for awhile so I thought I would do an update. Both tanks are doing well with lots of sps growth in the MH frag tank. The T5 tank is doing good all the corals have kept their color and most have grown at the base. The colors are alot lighter then the pieces they came from, the green stag is just starting to grow at the tips also added to the T5 tank cleaner shrimp fire shrimp a few snails, hermits two green anemones (from main tank) sally lightfoot The coral with the most growth is the Tubinaria (cup) in the upper back, it has about 1/8" new rim. Nothing has died so far and I have added several more corals since I started, Capnella,Singularia starts, a few more sps Here are the T5 lights from front to back Giesemann Aqua blue+ Giesemann Actinic + UV Aquasun UV Super actinic UV Super actinic Giesemann Actinic + GE 6500k Giesemann Midday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
