  1. Thanks Garrett! The milli really pops in the tank, and that Flame is beautiful.
  2. You are correct, I picked it up on my visit there when I came down for the cube. It is doing very good, along with the corals I picked up. Good call!
  3. The frag on the blue plug is a pink milli and the other one there close to the brain is a specialty cap, not sure what the name is (From Upscales) it is blue with pink polyps.
  4. Did a little aquascaping today now that the dust has settled... Right side Left side That's it for now...hope you enjoy(rock2)
  5. Tonights (last night actually, since it is now after 1am) fun...Trevor (Marine Dreamer on RF) came over, so naturally he got roped into helping get the new cube up and running(jail) Let the fun begin... I did the same overflow as the last tank... First FTS(rock2)So, Brandon wanted to know how high I would make the water level...here you go(fingers) I will let everything settle down tonight and get some real FTS tomorrow.
  6. Here is some of the prep work before getting it set up... This tank has a hole on the bottom from the original owner (he had a closed loop) I redid the bulkhead and capped it...might use it some day but not now. I'm setting this one up just like the last one with an overflow... Here is a shot of the bulkhead that will be the overflow. It is a little lower than I wanted, but I can adapt.
  7. The sickness continues...I just got my new addition up and running tonight, well technically last night(whistle) Here are a few shots shortly after I got it home Monday... I built my stand with the thought of this very size in mind, I really wanted this tank, but the custom price tag was crazy $$$$ I got this one for a song and it is almost exactly what I wanted...well minus the holes in places I didn't want, but I can work around that(drinking)
  8. Thanks! I will keep my eye out for your updates. I picked up the 2x2 starfire cube from Reefgeek today. I will be keeping this tank but will put it away for now...on to the 2x2:D
  9. Thanks Brandon! Looking forward to getting this one set up. I will start a new thread when I start this one up. Pleasure doing business with you, and good to meet you! If you can please look into the reflectors for me...Thanks! BTW our trip to upscales was good, got a few frags and a flame angel.(clap)
  10. Haven't decided what I'm going to do with it yet...might keep it and make it a frogfish tank (wartskin).
  11. Small update...picked up some corals from two of the local reefers up here:D I will be picking up Reefgeek's tank tomorrow, so I sould be doing a tank swap soon...moving up to the 60g(clap)
  12. I'll be there in the morning for this! (clap) Looking forward to swapping out my 30 for this 60(rock2)
  13. Thank you for your comments! It was set up for the long run...well up until reefgeek84's tank went back on the market(laugh) This was set up with the intention of making it a 2x2 starfire cube...so the tank I will be getting from Brandon will be perfect!
  14. It was very noisy at first, so one day out of desperation I dropped a bulkhead screen that I had laying around in ...cut the noise down to very tolerable levels.
  15. As Brandon said, the sump is where the fluctuation happens. The tank remains a constant level due to the height of the overflow. HTH
  16. Tonights addition for my return...Wavysea...nice(drinking)
  17. Here are a few more shots... I really like the Harlequin Shrimp...so lots of them, and I finally got a few of the newest fish additions.
  18. On the first day of Barrier Reef's Grand Opening sale I picked up a few things (clap) Few corals (have pix) and a few fish (no pix yet). Fish: bicolored blenny, and a pair of sixline wrasses...very nice. So now I have a pair of Harlequine Shrimp and a pair of Sixline Wrasses. I also made a swap on my skimmer, so I have the Tunze skimmer, very quiet...I like it nice and quiet in my home office. And a few shots of the sump area...CaRx and newest skimmer
  19. I decided to go with a mini luninarc for my lighting pendant...it is perfect for this size tank!
  20. FTS from a little while ago... You can see my yellow fuzzy lionfish that passed away just recently RIP (sad) He dislocated his jaw grabbing some food and ended up starving himself to death...very sad.
  21. I sold my Aquapod to a local reefer and he let me use his light until the big Barrier Reef Grand Opening when I will get my lighting. Here are a few shots of what I put together that night to get the light set up, with a few modifications it should do just fine for the Luminarc III mini that I'm picking up from Barrier Reef.
  22. Here is a shot of it up and running the first night... Yes that is a Tunze 6100...I like a lot of flow(laugh) Water was still cloudy from new salt poured right in. Now I just need to get the new lighting, CaRx, and I will be all set...maybe.
