reefwars 75g ugraded bonsai tank build

[reefwars]

well the 25g was nice but its grown out and im officially out of room , my fish are too big, corals too many and space very sparse.

heres the link to my 25g bonsai tank build have a look through if you never seen it before its def pic heavy lol

http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=88961&highlight=bonsai

the little tank was a complete success right from the beginning, it houses some very high end corals and is a full mixed reef including nps,lps and softies. the equipment however and the tank its self is pretty ghetto and is admittably small. the other downside the tank needs hours a day in maintanance:(

my bonsai tree max dimensions are 16l x 14"w and 18" tall....the tank is 18 x 18 x 18 .....you can see how it got frustrating room wise.


the current 25g specs:


25g cube
18 x 18 x 18
internal con=rner overflow
drilled for durso overflow
mag9.5
asmg2 skimmer with mesh mod
tlf reactor 150 with hc gfo
mp10
koralia1050
2 x brs peialistic dosers
1 x eheim jager 100w heater
10-15lbs liverock mounted on pvc structure
radion g1 xr-30w
ghetto sump 36 x 12 x 14h no baffles with liverock


system is tied into a 50g fragtank making the total water volume 100g including sump


out with the old and in with the new:mrgreen::mrgreen:




new tank specs :

75g cube
30 x 30 x 20h
eurobraced
clear silicone
external overflow
drilled for herbie with extra emergency drain
26 x 26 x 18h sump
30 x 30 x 30 steel stand powder coated black
rx-u1.5 vertex reactor for gfo fed by eheim compact+ 3000
rx-u 1.5 vertex reactor for rox carbon
vertex uf-1.5 for bio pellets fed by mag5
mp10x 2
radion g1 xr-30w x 2
speedwave 2640 dc return pump
apex lite controller
2 x brs perialistic dosers
skimmer to be decided( either rlss r10-i or reef-octopuss diablo both dc skimmers)
tunze ATO
50g water resevoir with secondary float switches for emergency back up.
filtersock shelf for 7" filter sock
custom light hanger for dual radions , adjustable in all directions.

all equipment is brand new , this setup is being made with automation in mind and no upgrades anytime soon, also this tank will not share the frag system but will be isolated to its own loop.



i decided to go with concepts raceway sump basically instead of water travelling from point a-b , its forced through a maze of over unders and notches to maximize the amount of time water stays in the sump, a very good design that we try to incorporate in wider sumps like this:)

tank was built myself from 10mm float at concept aquatics.


right now i have all i need i have most of it set up and im shooting to do the transfer tomorrow as i took two days off to finish this up, right now today i am finishing the plumbing and doing a water leak test(wish me luck) then tonight it gets filled with saltwater and tomorrow i do the transfer to the new tank, no extra rock is being added just the existing bonsai tree.

i will not be going with the glass sand bed this time around as i want to add my wrasses to the new set up.


my current livestock to be transfered:


1 xcopperband butterfly
3 x pj cardinals
1 x red and blue mandarin
1 x scooter dragonette
1 x green mandarin
2 x trojan designer clowns
1 x black leopard wrasse
1 x mystery wrasse
1 x melanarus wrasse
1 x blue leopard wrasse
1 x fireshrimp
12 x peppermint shrimp
2 x harlequin shrimp


currently there are no plans to add anything else livestock wise , maybe a bartlett anthias to replace mine that died a while ago, basically just more room for the fish and upgraded equipment.

on christmas i passed this tank over to my girlfriend who taken care of it since and has done an amazing job both with the fish and the corals, shes proved herself worthy of owing the bonsai, with that said this cube will be a pair of cubes that we are doing the other cube which will be mine will be fully sps dominant, the idea is the two tanks are in two corners of the living room.

since my gf is taking the bonsai ive decided to get rid of the sps and some of the hard to keep nps corals and ive made the new setup as simple and automated as possibe to make it easier on her.

her tank will remain zoanthid dominated with lps and some hardy nps corals.


pics tonight after i finish the plumbing ....yay lol

cheers

[reefwars]

now back to some plumbing:P

[Seriak]

I have been looking at those Diablo DC Skimmers and I think I am going to order one with the self cleaning head when they finally come out. They look amazing.

Following along!

[lpsreefer]

What! No yellow tang! Thought that was your favourite fishie!

yeah they are going to be a hot item , we have some coming already in the works:)

after using a dc pump fed skimmer im completely in love with them , we will see how the diablo compares , i got a feeling its going to blow the others away:)

[Seriak]

What! No yellow tang! Thought that was your favourite fishie!

Yeah with that sized tank you could have at least 10 of them. ;)

[reefwars]

What! No yellow tang! Thought that was your favourite fishie!

shouldnt you be working lol :PPPPP

[Leah]

Pitchers!

[JDigital]

Radions eh? They're alright I guess...... :lol:


I agree with Leah though! We need photographic evidence of this so called upgrade.

[reefwars]

Pitchers!

its the gf's tank...i aint buying her ghls's lol.....thats for my cube;)

[lastlight]

looking great boss... and built it yourself too!

btw no sump design is going to slow the water down it still enters and exits the thing at the same rate. you're just making it more of an adventure for any pods taking the trip through it... which is mighty thoughtful of you =)

[lpsreefer]

Lunch break. Lol

shouldnt you be working lol :PPPPP

[lpsreefer]

You going bare bottom?

[reefwars]

yes flow is still flow , im giving it dedicated zones to pass through instead of shared zones:)

funny about the pods , so far all my nudibranches have made it from my display to the sump then through the return pump and up to the fragtank, they are about 1" and some 3-4" lol in my gfo reactor lives mysid shrimp , not purposely but they got sucked in and now theres lots of them in there , i watch as they swim around and i look down and think how the hell those little buggers made it through the tumbling gfo and still live :)

[reefwars]

You going bare bottom?

no ill be doing a sandbed , im gonna do a mix med substrate on the right large substrate on the left.

will prob do a larger sandbed to cover the pvc base the tree is built on.

will take some sand from my sump to help seed the sand bed faster:)

[kien]

You going bare bottom?

why are we always talking about Denny's butt?!

[reefwars]

why are we always talking about Denny's butt?!

yeah i was gonna come back with some snazzy remark about summer and that being how i roll........then remembered im not down for that lol :P

[JDigital]

its the gf's tank...i aint buying her ghls's lol.....thats for my cube;)

Your "New Tank Specs" show Radions.. ;) Should update that.. So we don't get confused. :mrgreen:

[KineticReef]

Your tank specs are amazing. Exactly what I would do if I were to start over. The 20x20x30 dimensions are awesome! And the Ecotech Radions are sweet! I'm following along, good luck with the rest of the build!

[reefwars]

Your "New Tank Specs" show Radions.. ;) Should update that.. So we don't get confused. :mrgreen:

lol yeah thats cause shes getting the radions im getting ghls , were doing two cubes;)

dry plumbing done , electrical mounted and cleaned up and dosers mounted, gonna clean up a bunch of junk and get to finishing up gluing up the plumbing:)


also need to get some half inch pvs 90's to finish hooking up the reactors tonight:)

thanks i got a liking for cube tanks , and the way i origionally designed my bonsai tree is with a cubetank in mind:)

best part is now we have a new whole side to decorate lol :P

[lastlight]

you should totally do a cube tank denny that'd be rad. these dimensions you're working with are nice too.

</jackass>

[magikof7]

Following along! This is going to be a very nice tank. :D

[reefwars]

well shes wet folks!!!

now theres no turning back , speedwave is pumping flow on the third speed , love this damn pump !!

also got the radion fired up and the apex is running.

done a power out scenario and she covers easily.

overflow is dead quiet;)


gonna let it settle for the night and add salt tomorrow morning,then its trasfer time tomorrow night :)


heres some pics as proof;)

[reefwars]

Denny that is sexy u should of went 36x36x20

thanks mike, my sps cube which im starting after this is transfered is closer to those dimensions at 36 x 32 x 20h , gotta get this one finished first though then ill do the same as this build and gather up everything i need first over time:)

[Xadieu]

Wow mp40s x2, mp10s x 2, and dc pump

Those fish gonna swim for their life lol it's going to be a roller coaster ride. Looking good Denny:razz:

[gridley]

Congrats Denny - looks good! And yes, the DC pumps are great, I'm using one on my skimmer, and one as my return pump. I'm looking forward to seeing it with livestock.

[madchild]

Nice build Denny!

[Delphinus]

Nice handiwork! Can't wait to see it after the transfer and it's all settled in.

[reefwars]

Nice handiwork! Can't wait to see it after the transfer and it's all settled in.

thanks tony , i got salt and sand in her tonight , one of two reactors hooked up ,and herbie is dialed in dead quiet holding steady.

if it settles overnight ill do the transfer tomorrow night as it took me longer than i expected to get it all running smoothy today:)

the plan is to pick the whole bonsai up and just place it in the new tank.move my mandarins temporarily to the frag tanks and the rest of the fish to the new tank:)

[ruslicus]

Denny nice set-up

[riceboy]

Nice man but I think your light is of u need to centre it with a ghl ASAP lol

[reefwars]

well its official!!

transfered the tank over last night , diidnt use one drop of water from the old tank.

heres my transfer method

a)fill tank with salt water

b) lift tree from old tank

c) drop tree in new tank

d) have cold beer



fish and corals are all happy the tree got a 100% water change. the fish are loving the extra room and the wrasses are loving the socialization , all were up and out this morning:0

now i need more coral lol


pics coming later:)

[sphelps]

If it was so quick and easy, why did it take you so long? :wink:

[kien]

well its official!!

haha nice! Only you could get away with such a cowboy approach to reefing :lol:

[Leah]

They have cowboys on the moon.

[reefwars]

If it was so quick and easy, why did it take you so long? :wink:

Haha waiting for the beer to get cold;)

Well now that this tank is finished I guess its time to build my other cube tank:)))))

[lastlight]

pics coming later:)

MOVE IT!

[reefwars]

haha nice! Only you could get away with such a cowboy approach to reefing :lol:

Well I asked the fish what they would like and they said quick and painless.

The biggest shock goes to the erasers who were dug out ofcthe sand dropped into a dark box, buried in sand to wake up in an oasis;)

They have cowboys on the moon.


I mean obviously , moon cowgirls are where its at though:)

[lockrookie]

They have cowboys on the moon.

I guess you missed the movie space cowboys :)

[Xadieu]

Denny would your new tank have to cycle since no old water is used?

[mrhasan]

Denny would your new tank have to cycle since no old water is used?

Cycle is over ratted! Right Denny? ;) :twised:

[lockrookie]

His rock is cycled he won't see a spike unless its minimal its like a 100% water change he should be good to go

[mrhasan]

His rock is cycled he won't see a spike unless its minimal its like a 100% water change he should be good to go

Like I said...cycle is over rated :D :twised:

[magikof7]

It didn't happen if there are no pics!! :D

[Seriak]

Denny would your new tank have to cycle since no old water is used?

It's called the Denny Method!

[reefwars]

Denny would your new tank have to cycle since no old water is used?

haha dude you should see my acclimation procedure for new fish , basically open bag grab fish with hand and toss in tank, ten mins later fish is good to go lol


no die off equals no cycle, i was gonna use some of the water but my water parameters were exactly the same except for phops so i figured the corals would love the cleaner water:)

****** disclaimer- im an idiot and dont do as i do , i know very little about anything and rely purely on luck;) ****



my roomate calls it the denny acclimation procedure lol ....tried tested and true;)

[JDigital]

PICS!! :mrgreen:

[Delphinus]

The biggest shock goes to the erasers who were dug out ofcthe sand dropped into a dark box, buried in sand to wake up in an oasis;)


Um ... erasers? :question: :confused: :question:

[Xadieu]

haha dude you should see my acclimation procedure for new fish , basically open bag grab fish with hand and toss in tank, ten mins later fish is good to go lol


Hmmm I like this Denny's method of acclimation. This word should be in the dictionary :P

[Seriak]

Um ... erasers? :question: :confused: :question:

I was a little confused on that one too. Maybe it's a new Zoa he named.

[reefwars]

Um ... erasers? :question: :confused: :question:

wrasses.....damn auto correct

[kien]

i just assumed that was how newfies pronounced wrasses..

[Madmak]

Actually it's how they say " you're asses" after a pint or two, seriously eh.

[reefwars]

day two and everyone is happy , had a glitch with my radion last night but thats all fixed up , turns out my power supply went AWOL lol


so i have been thinking all day about replacing the radions with the radion pros , everything else on this tank is new and upgraded prob should do the lights too lol


decisions decisions !!.............ill prob do it lol


pics on the way :mrgreen::mrgreen:

[reefwars]

sposing some picthures are in arder;)

Love the Harlequin Shrimp pair Denny, hope you have enough star fish to feed them :D


thanks buddy , haha yeah ive had these guys for quite a while , they eat a chocolate chip starfish a week divided between them ,i use to feed them frozen but i want them to hunt and keep their instincts so i toss in a full starfish and they hunt it, flip it and drag it back to their overhang where they spend the full week doing the mated pair thing and eating.

given the right conditions these two will pair for life:)

right now for a skimmer i am using my asmg2 with mesh mod and its done well for me long before this tank but its skimmer shopping time and i got an idea what i want but ill keep that one to myself untill i pull the trigger;)


cheers!!

[lastlight]

denny do you control the dosers with the apex lite?

and does apex lite come with a display, iphone controllability and web logging?

[reefwars]

denny do you control the dosers with the apex lite?

and does apex lite come with a display, iphone controllability and web logging?

I don't yet , right now my apex is a expensive powerbar everythings on and plugged in random spots lol ill get to it someday;)

Does come with display and networks accessible but I haven't played with it yet I traded some corals for this awhile ago and didn't bother setting it up on my ghetto setup :)

[lastlight]

so what would be the big reason to get the lite vs the jr? i'm having a tough time sifting thru the product descriptions to nail the meaningful differences. they both look the same except the lite has 8 power plugs vs 4 on the jr?

[reefwars]

Well the Jr only has a 4 outlet powerbar, in theory even with the 8plug you really need a second powerbar and they are pricey.the
I don't think the junior comes with a Ph probe either, plus the junior runs display to piwerbar and that's it so I'm not sure about addons like vdm or wxm modules?

[Reef Pilot]

If you want to use a pH probe, you'll need the lite instead of the jr. But the biggest reason for me, is the ability to use the breakout box where you can make DIY float switches, water flood sensor, and other switches etc, to control and shut off pumps, solenoids, or whatever.

The lite is basically the same as the standard apex, except without the variable ports for certain variable speed pumps (like tunze) and orp probe.

[lastlight]

yeah i've got no use for the VDM but the MXM works with all apex models (so claims the BRS site anyways).

I guess I'd need a power slot for my light, one for each doser, and heater. I *think* 4 would be enough but maybe it's best to go to an 8 bar right off the bat. I don't have any need for ph monitoring either.

Reefwars,

In pic 5 of post 92, are.those rics bleached a little bit? I have the same ones in my tank and the tips are a bit white like the ones in the pic. Is that just normal for those?

no its my crappy camera mixed with the radion colors its actually bright vivid orange with a neon green mouth and ring on its outer edge;)

[Baldy]

mine have a bright orange outer, blue inside, and bright green mouth, but some of the bulbs or tentacles have white tips. Like half the bulb is white and half is bright orange.

Awesome coral pics tho!

well ive had them running for 2 days now , and when i got home yesterday afternoon i did notice something very different , most of my corals were alot fatter , i thinking the uv had something to do with it, too soon to tell just yet but overall i love the pros , whether or not its worth the extra $300 per fixture is still up for debate;)

cheers

Thanks pat buddy , lately it hasn't looked to nice , I'm currently way over stocked , I desperately need to get my skimmer upgrade going .

The scoly has been fed pellets for a long time at the aqua culture facility so every hour when my pellets are being fed to the achilles its going nuts thinking its getting fed too lol

i do feed it daily but im pretty sure it would fair well with out it seems to be very hardy the opics never show it but tall the tentacles have splatters of neon green on them and the whole face is neon green as well , pretty cool piece:)

[lastlight]

what happend to Tai's tank??

He hasn't been slapped around enough to get his butt in gear. Road trip?

[reefwars]

what happend to Tai's tank??

ha his tank is a ways from being done but so far hes candidate number 1 , so get your butt in gear tai!!:mrgreen:

[Skimmerking]

so why are you getting rid of the Achillies

[reefwars]

so why are you getting rid of the Achillies

well he cant stay forever so im just making sure i have a good home lined up for him when hes ready to go , hes still pretty small at about 3-4" so ill have him for a little bit still but he will get to be too big sooner or later.

i wont have a hard time finding a home for him because of his species but i just want to make sure he goes to a experienced reefer with a mature large tank:)

[Gizmoh]

Stunning tank Denny! Can't wait to see more

[michika]

He can always come home with me!

[reefwars]

Stunning tank Denny! Can't wait to see more

thanks good buddy .


well finally decided on my skimmer upgrade so last week i decided to take home a csc450 and plug her in:mrgreen::mrgreen:

ok so my sump space is 12" x 12" the footprint on the csc450 is 11 7/8" x 11 7/8" .............pretty tight lol

had to drain my sump to get it in, clear out some other randomness and a week later shes chugging black nasty goo lol:)

was going to go the diablo route but not quite enough clearance:(

[reefwars]

He can always come home with me!


i have def been thinking it over , hes good for a bit still as after seeing seans beatuty last night its safe to say hes got some growing to do lol i think ill have him untill summer and then its adoption time. right now hes in perfect health but hes small so easily picked on by other tangs:)



Pretty sure Denny's got a (very understanding) gf lol.


i dont know about " very " lol


lol.

If thats the case then I'll take her too! :lol:

carefull what you wish for :mrgreen::mrgreen:



thanks guys , next post is update time and newssssssssssss!!!

[reefwars]

so update for the bonsai.


recently went through a tough battle where in the end there is no winning.i have decided to do a rebuild on the bonsai tree , unfortunately digitate hydroids have consumed the tank , my only defense was a dozen peps who couldnt keep them under control , since i have an army of wrasses replacing the peps is getting expensive since they are losing any way.

how bad is it??

well the hydroids do not seem to bother the corals with the exception of zoanthids , my whole collection is at another reefers tank so im not too worried about that but the real threat is the liverock in genberal. the combination of sponges and hydroids have destroyed the rock , one square inch of rock has about 200 hydroids on it.....my whole structure is covered.

the hydroids are also magnets for ditrius and holds the dirt making the tank look dirty and not allowing it to be sumped.


so we are doing a rebuild and tossing the old rock, these types of hydroids are not easy to get rid of like colonial hydroids are but have less of a sting too.


the corals are going into qt and all corals with hydroids will be treated to harsh h2o2 dips untill either the coral dies or the hydroids do. certain expensive corals will be hand picked of hydroids and dipped a bit more carefully.


they will go into qt untill the new structure is in place.

the new tree is going to be slightly different.

weve done a dry run to see how it would look before we made the call and the new tree will be built like this.


i am using a dozen pieces of tonga branch to create the tree trunk, then quality fiji liverock to add a tree type shape to the top, in our dry runs it looked very good and offered more space between rocks vs being one whole rock structure.

basically we are going for an even more realistic look of a tree vs the typical one we have now.

the structure will be slightly larger to incorporate new lps.



other than that i upgraded my skimmer from a asm g2 with mesh mod to a csc450 which will skim the fish right out the water lol

ive taken the carbon off line temporarily(never liked it anyways) untill i decide where i want to store it in the sump.



right now i need more flow

i had:

1 x mp10@ 100%
1 x mp40@ 100%
1 x koralia 1400


i added 3 x koralia 1400 which puts me well over 100x flowrate, with the increased skimmer size this should work well.i will switch out the koralias with mp40's in a few weeks once everything else settles in.....baby steps right?


fish are all getting along great still cant get the achilles to eat frozen but he eats pelltes non stop in fact about a bottle a week.......fat bugger lol ive also named him zeus which for me isnt normal i dont name fish lol



well ill see where i am in the next couple of weeks but untill the change over with the rock wont be much to update.

[The Grizz]

hes doing amazing , eats every hour lol im currently accepting applications for a full time adoption in about 2-3 mths:)

ha his tank is a ways from being done but so far hes candidate number 1 , so get your butt in gear tai!!:mrgreen:

Thought I was candidate #1 :twised:

[reefwars]

Update time :

Tore down the bonsai and redid the rock work , threw out the old rock and fresh start , corals are cleared of hydroids alot got tossed or lost :( decided to remove my Sandbed as I'm a high flow kinda guy I left a 4" strip of sand 2" thick for the wrasses at the back of the tank from the front looks BB.stuck with the original layout of an island with a tank 30" wide it's a better look and more space and territories for the fish.

Also added a couple fish which puts me at border line over stocked lol I'm currently asking summer Santa for a larger tank :p

My current livestock:

Achilles tang
Flame wrasse super male
Flame wrasse females x 2
Hawaiian flame angel
Black leopard wrasse
Breeding trio of pj cardinals
Peppermint hogfish
Psychedelic mandarin
Target mandarin
Scooter dragonet
Pair of Trojan clownfish
Single goldband Maroon clown
Melanarus wrasse
Mystery wrasse
Rainfords goby
Lunar wrasse


Way overstocked lol trying to see who can go but they mingle so well together. Seen my rainfords goby yesterday for the first time since I put him in the tank , all he ever did in the other tank was hide anyways lol still have 2 female flame wrasses to add to the cluster puck of it all :pp

Will post some pics of the new layout and get them posted once I get some I like lol this is pretty much the girlfriends tank now ill be starting on an sps only tank this summer and stealing some of my fish gonna go Hawaiian or Aussie theme for fish and corals :)

Cheers


Denny

[fishoholic]

yes please! we'll tack it onto my zoa 'order' lol.

[reefwars]

update time i guess


so this tank has seen some major changes some good and some bad .

iove had to tear down this tank and reset it up from scratch three times now , all because of the digitate hydroids, i was for certain that throwing out my rock and corals would cure this but it hitchhiked back from some coral i didnt have the heart to toss.....stupid decison and now i had to toss the rock out again along with any remaining corals :(

to add to the stress i played the russian roulette too many times with fish and i recently added a flame angel and flame wrasse from the same order to my tank and it wiped out my fish, went from 26 fish to 12 in a couplle days, right now all my fish are in treatment and the tank is fallow untill fall.

out of all my fish the only ones saved were my flame wrasse pair, lawnmower blenny,scooter dragonette, 3 clowns and 3 cardinals and my melanarus wrasse and peppermint hogfish.....the rest lost i was lucky to save the ones i did by acting fast and setting up a 100g treatment tank........honestly i dont even feel like adding fish back to the display as its a nice calm look so im still deciding if i will keep the fish i have left or not


all my highend corals are gone , i managed to pull the zoas out a few months ago before they got infected but all my sps, lps and rock are garbaged.


heres some pics of how the tank sits now, simple layout simple corals nothing fancy.

debating on whether or not to get the new ati fixture in replacement of my radion pros im not feeling them and having a hard time finding reasons to tell myself why im keeping them lol


recently pulled out all my sand as well with all this hassel...

with the mass loss of corals,rock and now fish we are deciding what route to take with the tank untill we come up with some ideas its going to sit idle and do its thing.....wasnt a total write off i saved my gorgs which didnt seem affected by the hydroids same with my hammer coral and my tube anemone.


some ideas we are thinking:

adding a moray eel as the only occupant

adding seahorses and changing the tanks design completely

doing either a frogfish or scorpion fish as the only occupant

going freshwater and adding two of the ugliest gold fish i can find( ok not gonna happen i know lol)


cheers

Sorry to hear about your issues :-(

I am digging your 'less is more' look though.

[Reef Pilot]

Very sorry to hear about your loss. You're taking it a lot better than I would... Goes to show it can happen to even the best... And thanks for sharing your challenges, and any lessons learned.

[reefwars]

Very sorry to hear about your loss. You're taking it a lot better than I would... Goes to show it can happen to even the best... And thanks for sharing your challenges, and any lessons learned.

thanks

its been a hard few weeks , im pro qt but always end up taking the risk in my experience i should have known better but i do end up making the wrong choices sometimes too so ill chalk it up to a lesson learned.it was a violent strain of MI that took the fish out , it acted fast and with in a week it was here and gone and left its path of destruction on my fish.

right now we are going to enjoy the summer and im busy with the new store opening in aug so i have the ability to go fallow untill fall in which case we are deciding what to do with the tank as far as livestock is concerned.

the qt will stay running in case we decide to add any new fish and they will go for the same treatment as my current fish are getting.

3 wks in qt so far and everyone is doing amazing no signs of ich or any parasites but they have a ways to go still.

cheers

Crappy
Sorry to hear about the devastation Denny

[reefwars]

update time again

ok so tank is back on track , all my fish were taken out of qt a couple days ago they did well in hypo for 2 mths and i lost only 2 in the process

ive recently decided to add another copperband and didnt want to put him through the qt process so heres taking another chance lol he looks fine and i did have him on hold at ther shop for a while to make sure he is active:) all other fish will go into the qt tank as i left it running just in case i need it again soon....i hope not:P

my current fish list.....its small:(

male flame wrasse(lost female in hypo)
mated trio of cardinals
pair of trojan clownfish
lawnmower blenny
filamented goby
copperband butterfly


so far the copperband is eating mysis after a couple of days of training and hes also eating my squamosa:shocked!: lol

anyways heres some pics the tank ,its still in hibernation mode untill i see where i want to go coral wise with it:)

cheers

denny

no sadly i had to make the choice of putting him in qt , knowing they do not do well but had no other choice , he was one of the fish lost in qt:(

i will try another someday but digging the bb look for a bit:)

[Bblinks]

Nice collection of corals! I need a piece of that yellow gorg please!

[Proteus]

Great pics Denny.

Nice collection. But I expect that as you always had a good eye for nice stuff. Interesting scape too!

[JDigital]

Those pieces of SPS look good Denny. I don't know where you will find room for them in your tank as it looks pretty packed.. but knowing you, you will find a spot. haha

a pair radion pros for the display and 4 bulb tek light t5HO for the frag tank , the frag tank is 72 x 20 x 14"h and the light is pretty much 6" awl

honestly the colors in my display are horrid, drab and makes me puke....i think im done with leds by them selves,and am looking into the ati hybrid as a replacement.

thanks buddy finally sps is doing good for me , my dislay kills or browns them out immediately , cant figure out why , my fragtank on the other hand is growing zoos at a rate ive never had before and sps is full color and growing fast , ive had my poker star montis encrust the plugs they are on in a week and go from a brown blob to the nice rainbow color they are now , within a few weeks they should be neon green only with a blue base:):)

flow rate in the frag tank is:

7 x koralia 1400's
2 x koralia 1050's
mag 7 return pump

so lots of flow and lots of light , i also dont feed this tank.....no skimmer either ...au' natural but do run a fuge with cheato and lots of liverock

currently using zeovit amino acids
zeovit sponge power
zeovit coral vitalizer

a pair radion pros for the display and 4 bulb tek light t5HO for the frag tank , the frag tank is 72 x 20 x 14"h and the light is pretty much 6" awl

honestly the colors in my display are horrid, drab and makes me puke....i think im done with leds by them selves,and am looking into the ati hybrid as a replacement.

Yah I have never seen colours on a tank that come anywhere close to what you seem to be able to get with T5s. I'm trying to find it in the thread, but do the systems share the same water? A little part in the back of my mind had always wondered if the differences I see in my tank compared to some T5 tanks was because of a the nutrient regime, but if you've got two frags of the same species, one under T5s, one under LEDs, but sharing the exact same water and you're seeing those kinds of differences... you're making a pretty compelling case for T5s lol.

I'm with you. Growth is good but def not liking the radion color wise. Seriously contemplating a mh again

no two different tanks not sharing water at all.

thats actually part my issue , display has fish and a regular source of pollution while the frag tank stays low nutrients and doesnt get any pollution added so i believe its a natural low nutrient without the use of carbon source:)

titus i agree growth is good under the leds but the colors make me sick lol:P

because of your post I watched some Youtube videos of the ATI powermodule. Duuuuude. So sweet. That's my next light.

same here ive spoken to a few peeps and they have them and love them , these poeple are also poeple who have led experience so i trust their judgemnent. price is steep and thats whats stopping me at this point plus the fact if i get a 24" ati im stuck with 24"

lots of good review on rc for the ati's

i havent seen one in person or used one but its peaked my interest.

leds are def good but its hard to get a color i like with my pros:)

[asylumdown]

Yah the number one reason I went with LEDs was the level on controllability, it looks like you get all that and a piece of cake with the ATIs. I've had issues with colour as well, I find the LEDs are really difficult for some corals to adapt to, and I've watched in sadness as the metallic sheen of some corals slowly fades to a dull base colour in my tank. I know it's not just how the lights make the colours appear to me, because the coral will have the really psychedelic, metallic look that made me want to buy it in the first place for the first 5-7 days in my tank, but something in the radions is not encouraging the coral to keep producing that colour and it always fades over time. The worst was a blue tipped, green bodied stag acro. When I got it (previously grown in a T5 tank), the green body looked like metallic car paint, now it's just a dull green.

On the other hand, I have a purple bonsai valida that went insane under the LEDs, it almost hurts to look at it it glows so brightly.

Perhaps a hybrid fixture will create the best of both.
