Christy the fish is a damsel. I can't remeber what the name was and on searching the web can't see it anywhere. I beleive it is listed in the Marine Fish Pocket Book. It is it's juev colours and tuns black basically when it is an adult.

SWEET PICTURES MAN!!!!!!! Great looking tank Chris! Well done.

I need you to come over when you have time to take some pics of my tank. Beverages would be provided of course. ;)

Cheers

Chowder 01-31-2009 02:53 AM

Hey Christy the Damsel is a crosses damsel.

christyf5 01-31-2009 02:55 AM

Thanks Chris!

Hehe the other pics didn't come up for me at first. I now see the friend and the bully. Hard to believe that a whatever type of wrasse that is is a bully, I always thought those guys were rather timid.

Chowder 01-31-2009 03:20 AM

It's a blue sided wrasse. It takes runs at the other fish in the tank. But usually they are timid. It has basically run all wrasses that I put in the tank.

Lance 01-31-2009 04:11 AM

Nice score on the Regal. He's a beauty. Hope it leaves your corals alone.

Chowder 01-31-2009 04:15 AM

It does pick at a few things here and there but mostly the rocks. Mostly fly byes right now.

Your polyp extension is so RAD! You've sure gotten the knack of taking pics as well. Keep up the awesome work. Do you ever sell frags? Some of your stuff needs to migrate when I'm ready!

Chowder 03-25-2009 04:11 AM

Yes I do sell some frags but I do not ship. Sorry ...... As for the pictures take a hundred post 10 . You really have to take the same shot 3-5 times before you get a half decent one to post.

Chris

Last update in MARCH.

Balls are in your court bud.

Chowder 11-20-2009 09:04 PM

I am going through a move and have nowhere to run that tank right now. Tank was taken down about 3.5 months ago. I have a 72 gallon Bow and a 40 Gallon breeder at work that I am storing the corals and rock in untill I can set it up again. Should have it running again in the beginning of the New Year.

Chris

lastlight 11-20-2009 09:15 PM

I guess this is a case where everyone knew but me. Good luck!

Marlin65 11-21-2009 02:13 AM

Looks like I might have to stop by someday now that i know where you work.:wink:

Your welcome anytime....

Chowder 03-05-2010 04:42 AM

As you can see the tank has been reserected.......

I have built a new hood for the tank. I have had this tank running since the first week of January and am slowly moving things over from my two tanks at work. I have upgraded the sump to a 50 gallon long tank and built a refugium compartment into it. I still have alot of things to hook up to it as they come off line from the two tanks at work. I will try and keep you guys updated as I put this all back together.

Chris

christyf5 03-05-2010 04:45 AM

Woohoo!! Awesome! :cool:

Chowder 03-05-2010 04:56 AM

I have so far taken one tank down at work which was most of my LPs and a fair number of my fish and my three clams. I am going with less rock this time for more swimming room for the fish. My other tank at work has what is left of my SPS and a few pieces I have collected. It also has my zoa, paly collection and a few dendros. I lost half or more of my collection of SPS to the tank transfer and Acro flat worms. I have the flat worm problem in check.
This tank is going to be a mixed reef.

More pictures to come as I add things and try to document the progress.

Chris
