Hozer21 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Here are some pics of my tank over 3 years(clap) I have do allot and tried allot of things but now I know that I have to take my time and make sure I do things the right way and not to rush in to thing that I don't know . I have lost allot of fish and corals over the years for not doing the right thing and trying to do to much to quick & I have all so lost allot of corals and fish because I had to move my tank 4 times in 3 years and then I would try to move thing around( rocks and placed them in other place)and because I saw new thing online and didn't think my tank looked good but don't worry know it is in one place and it won't move for a long while and I won't move things around only if corals need to me moved or fragged but that won't be for a while since I just started to put corals in my tanks that has been set up for 3 months The only thing that I have all ways had problem with as you all see in the pics is the green coral line algae or at least that is what people have told me but I really don't know . Does anyone out there know ?? and thanks for looking . I will try to post more of the new tank here in a couple of days . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stylaster Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 The green film on the glass along the bottom isn't coralline, some sort of algae, looks like it should scrap off. You can always get some astreas, trochus, or turbos to help keep it in check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReefSafari Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Very Cool, I just tore down a tank last weekend so I totally understand, and can't imagine having to tear down a tank 4 times:eek:...It looks great, Give us some specs on your tank, like lighting, what kind of corals, ect....I am curious....

Hozer21 Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Yeah it's a bear moving and taking everything down and trying to put it back together. I feel for you stylaster because I know how hard it is to move(scary). Will it's a 90 gallon tank and lighting is x2 250W DE HQI Bulb 15000K x4 65W Compact Fluorescent Bulb Actinic Blue 6x Dual Bluemoon LED total lighting for my tank is 760watts & this is only about an years old before these light that I have now I have x6 54W T5 which is 324 watts of light which I liked allot but then I wanted to upgrade which I did and I love these new lights now and I can do so much more with if you know what I mean. That is what I thought that it was algae, but some of green will not come off so easy I have to take a razor to is and scrub like a sob just to get it off , but I notice a big change when I stop using flake food and switched just to frozen food for my fish and now I don't get as much green build up in my tank(clap) but I would like to say thanks for the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
