Tidal waters glorified frag tank

[tidal_waters]

So I've been creeping the board now for a few months and thanks to everyone who contributed to making this such an informative and friendly board!

So I bought this here Solana from a fellow reefer back in February??? and started stocking late March, and I think the stocking stopped about a month ago! *L* I wish I had started this journal back then, just to see the growth of the tank. Everything is still on the small side in terms of size, however I'm imagining a definite upgrade in the next 6 months or so. Consider my tank now a 100 gallon in the making!

As this is my first SW aquarium I had my ups and downs ( more downs it seems) but things are picking up and looking good with the exception of a few pieces in my tank.

So a little about my current tank,

Solana 34 Gallon
250watt retrofitted sunpod
Modded stock skimmer
40ish pounds of live rock
2 clowns
Black Sailfin Blenny
Blue Assessor
Cleaner shrimp
Porcelain Crab
and the regular clean up gang

And here's a little aquarium porn for ya



















hope you enjoyed and will have plenty of more pics and questions for everyone!

That's a beautiful tank! What bulb are you using?

[tidal_waters]

Its a Coralife 250 watt 20K

I also have some Current USA powerbrite led strips supplementing the halides, pretty blue!

I also have some pretty sweet looking actinic shots

That's a color-filled and seriously stocked Solana wow! So you're upgrading to 100 gallons too? My Solana isn't that stocked but I found myself wanting something a little bigger.

yeah they sure do seem to get cramp pretty quick! *L* But I'm going to let this one fill in as much as possible before I get the bigger tank.

Picked myself a couple of new additions!
