gqlmao's CUBE! PICS!
Hey I dont post much on canreef, but I wouldnt call myself new to canreef. Anyways I was asked to post my tank on canreef. It isnt the prettiest tank and I do have quite a bit of algae but what the heck. I just spent my week finishing my canopy and my doors for the tank making it officially a fullout tank . FYI I've never built anything before :P but as long as I dont see light leaking from the canopy sides I'm fine lol.
The tank itself is 5 months old upgraded from a 3 year old 46 bow, dimensions are 30x30x24 inch with a 20 gallon sump. the sump has no glass planes its bare and consists of a series of eggcrates which hold my macros and the lower ones are filled with feather dusters. These are my water polishers. My skimmer is a es 100 its been 3 days in the picture, it does alright I guess. The cup has to be emptied in a week? I have a ehiem canaister behind it as well along with a phosban reactor. My lighting consists of a 24 inch newwave t5 HO and a 250 watt MH. When combined I get quite a nice colour but My MH isnt on during the pictures cause I'm planning to hang my canopy and at the level its at right now, evaporation and heat will be a big issue. Its going to be a SPS tank because my little angels eat everything but SPS! I have a transforming emperor angel, and a blue face angel. BTW my tank is heavily stocked, I have 3 tangs and a sargassum and a foxface. They are all doing fine I've had most of them for over 2 years now except the trigger. Nitrates are very low and I dont think I have any traces of ammonia. Anyways screw my babbling and heres more pics, I hope you guys enjoy and if you want some more details feel free to ask or pm. UMM SORRY IT DIDNT POST PICS ILL POST them now Stanley, Last edited by gqlmao; 05-05-2008 at 06:46 PM. |

I like the rock formation you've got going on there. When that puppy grows out it'll be sweet! Good idea with the open canopy...i don't think heat will be much of a problem that way.
Keep us updated and stop using my real name (lastlight) on a public forum man! Cheers, Brett |

:P gotcha man, no name using!. Thanks yea I tried to go for less liverock because I wanted more room for the fish and more space for sps. Hopefully the open canopy will get enough heat through.
