How did the fragging go ?

fishface NJ · May 17, 2023

In the process of removing the rock that had the Walt Disney on it, I knocked over other rocks and broke some SPS. I used a chisel to break the rock/Walt Disney free. I’ve glued the Walt Disney rock piece to an adjacent island.

I had tried gluing, some of the SPS pieces to the tank wall that had broken off, but they all RTN

I have had this coral for 2 years. It has been a green nub until recently. I don’t remember what it is called….that is with most of the SPS in my tank. I buy by what the mother colony looks like. Under T5.

No changes in the tank in months.

I have been shopping for a larger tank. I was interested in the innovative marine 100g external overflow with stand. Now they require you to buy with their tank and stand with their sump. I have a new Trigger sump that I purchased last year for my new build. So I think I’ll might be passing on this

I am now looking at Fiji 108g external overflow. I would need to build a stand since my sump would not fit in the stand because of the partition.

That is a beautiful FTS so balanced, well done

Thank you @HudsonReefer2.0

@tbrown 108g is the largest I will go. Any bigger and that is just scary

Looks like you got some nice growth going on!!

I was at a coral show up in north jersey over the weekend, was pretty well attended.

As far as tanks around that 108g size @Joe Glass Cages has some options on his website that would work. There's a 106g listed as 48 x 30 wide x 17 tall, and a 60 x 24 x 17. Budget wise, they're going to come in well below what you would have been spending with Inovative Marine, and Joe does stands as well, but not forced to buy it with a tank.

Hi Pntbil687!

@Joe Glass Cages makes great tanks. I always get overwhelmed when I'm on his site. I select a tank then all the options...LOL

I ordered a Radiant Wrasse from NY Aquatics and he was delivered on Tuesday alive!!! Hoooorray! As soon as he went into the QT he swooshed into the sand. Have not seen him since

So it has been 7 days since I put the Radiant Wrasse in the tank. Haven't seen him since he went into the sand. I ordered a camera from Amazon today in hopes of seeing him swimming around

Remember, there is still one at AC. I saw it last weekend, looked very good.
Keep me updated.
