NoobtoSalt Posted August 7, 2010 Author Share Posted August 7, 2010 The wrasse has been doing great in the tank so far this week. I just got back from grabbing some new frags of sps and zoas from a grow out so I will be posting some pictures of those once my halides are back on.

NoobtoSalt Posted August 7, 2010 Author Share Posted August 7, 2010 Ok more new stuff today...lol Got to meet Tim at Westside. It was worth the drive! Some of the SPS is from Westside others are from Reefit! Thanks you guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 TECO Grow out and a few extra frags I have sitting in the back. I think I'm going to slow down this month and regroup. I've gotten quite a few new pieces and I'm just going to let them do their thing for awhile before I add anything else. My little acan in the back on the rack as well. Going to look good when it grows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeFit Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 your sps looks happy! Its awesome that you were able to make that tank work, it looks sharp. I'm glad its getting some good use instead of sitting in a dark storage trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoobtoSalt Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 Alright. I've been wanting to get something so I don't have any carpet surfers and I was thinking of doing black egg crate but I was told that this was a better idea...... And boy were they right. Thanks again Kim for reminding me about Brad's thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianB Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 How is the light? Does it penetrate enough or did you lose any light intensity? Was was the cost on something like that i may make one for the 40b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 How is the light? Does it penetrate enough or did you lose any light intensity? Was was the cost on something like that i may make one for the 40b. Light seems fine through it. I used the aluminum screen material instead of the regular material just for looks. All in all I think it was a little less than 25 bucks and I have quite a bit left over. If you give me your measurements for your 40b I can see if I have enough left over and you can throw me a frag or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted September 9, 2010 Author Share Posted September 9, 2010 Ok so here's some updates from a new piece I got from OIAB last weekend. I will get some pics of the piece I have left from Westside when my tank parameters are better. Right now my purple milli is being housed at Reefits. Orange Digi from OIAB. Sorry it's a cell phone shot. When I get my new phone I will take better pictures of it. Not new but wanted to show it off. Bubble coral This is a picture from the Mystery Chalice I got from Kim and Beth in June. Look at the later pictures to see the coloring up progress!! It is now purple with green mouths. Took three months but it was worth seeing the progression of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Ah the mystery chalice has turned into a nice frag indeed Noob! Thanks for sharing!(clap) I love watching things color up it's fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted September 10, 2010 Author Share Posted September 10, 2010 Well I've been bored today since I couldn't leave the house and found some old pictures of corals and took some updated ones tonight to show the difference. Before Pink Chalice from Beth and Kim And after picture Chalice Colony from OIAB Before And after And just a few extras I took I love this shrimp! And the leather I picked up from Steve (Saltfinsax) quite awhile ago now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 Armageddons in the front, and some sort of a Red PE from Aloha Corals in the back. Got these from Beth and Kim awhile back. Not sure what they are but they look cool! Fake Red Ring things from Eric. I never remember names of these things...lol Armor of Gods Acans on top growing good. Unknown SPS from Westside. It was brown when I got it and it's starting to color up. One of the few pieces of SPS that are still alive in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf86123 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Jesse, looks like you might have the start of an algae bloom what with those air bubbles showing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee77 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Those are fake pink hornets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 Jesse' date=' looks like you might have the start of an algae bloom what with those air bubbles showing up.[/quote'] Yeah. I'm doing some tank maintence tomorrow for sure. Between the big swing up in Calcium and Mag and the Red Slime I'm just running into all sorts of issues. I need more clean up crew but I'm worried that they won't make it with my tank parameters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf86123 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Red Hornets dee :P Fake Red Hornets, there's also a hawaiian version, I've got a nice frag of em that's slowly growing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
