Jake's seahorse reef

Beautiful tank and great pics.
Good job and very well done.

It has been a long time since I updated this thread. Since the last update, I have moved, so the tank changed a lot.

Before the move:


A few months after the move:


The "new" tank needs to grow in a bit before it gets to where my last one was. The only loss of the move was the Halymenia sp. macro algae... one day without light and it died. It may also have been due to nutrient shock (being placed suddenly in a nutrient poor, unestablished tank).

The seagrass has rebounded well, and all of the corals were pretty much unaffected by the move.



New dragonette










Need to add a cover with the new fish (plus I have a cat...). I had this custom made, but unfortunately within days it started warping and is now pretty ugly. If anyone knows how to fix this sort of issue I'm all ears!


This probably hasn't helped with the problem...


My refugium


Happy holidays!

Hahah just turn it up side down and let the cat do all the work to reshape it! haha

Is it made out of acrylic or lexan/plexi glass? I had one for a tank that i made from lexan and the heat from the lights warped it and they were about 2 feet off the tank

The tank looks awesome though! keep the pictures coming!

Thanks! I am away for the holidays so unfortunately I don't have many other pictures, but I will take more when I return.

I think it is made of acrylic. Flipping it over crossed my mind, but I was hoping for a permanent solution. If I flip it over again, I think it would just warp out of shape again.

Your 13 gallon build thread is very cool by the way

I see you are selling your Kessil. Are you going with a different light, or are you (god forbid) shutting this down? Inquiring minds need to know!

Jake your setup is bountiful!!
