Getting things up for summer

Teco TK1000 what a beast!

That a nice looking chiller!!
Im just scared that the cabinet is too small and it wont be pulling in any fresh cool air. You would be much better keeping it outside the cabinet fir the summer. Those chillers put out alot of hot air!!

I saw tk 2000 in person and it is not near old chillers working temp. Outlet of chiller is drilled to backpanel of my cabinet so i think i will be fine. Also it is overkill for my tank and it will for only few minutes per hour. Also room where tank is placed is air conditieted.

Borrowed Canon 400 D for weekend and made few pics. I know that pro eye will see mistakes but i like them as amateur and hope you liked some of them. Lens is nothing special ( i think it is entry level that came with body of camera ) dunno which one as i said amateur

Thanks. Having little problem with cyano but all other is good. Also i wanted to ask all parameters are good but my tridacna noae i acting strange. Half of it is opened ( flash of clam is on edge ) and other half isnt fully opened. It is acting like that almost 90 % of time. I have it 4-5 months now and to be honest i saw it fully opened only maybe 10 days in that period. It is fully opened 1 day and then 20 days one side half. Any ideas ?

Possibilities are, flow, paramaters, irritation from something living in it or swimming by it. Only experience i have with clams is ive bought them and the die. This was maybe 5 years ago and have not tried another. Hope this helps.

Ill tag the #reefsquad and someone may have some more info. If anyone wants a photo look at the 7th photo from the bottom.

What is the name of the big "fuzzy" leather looking coral near the center-right of your tank?

 

[Slim_Okrug]

Some sort of sinularia sp but i think it is Sinularia asterolobata if you mean on biggest one.

Thanks. I will try to move it on left side of tank. Maybe kenya from back touch it and irritate it. I have free part of sand on left with a lot of space and will see what happens then. If reefsquad answers it would be much of help i guess.

I think i found right one. It is Sinularia polydactyla.


Looks similiar not color wise but movement and look pretty much same.

It may very well be something is bothering it. I've had that happen before myself. Just be careful when trying to move it. They can attach themselves to the bottom of the tank or rock.

The tank and pictures look awesome!!! Love the Mandarin

Thanks guys for nice words.

Yea on back of it i have lot of kenyas and maybe their branches are anoying her. It is attached to rock allready so i just need to lift it up and move it. Tridacana noae need to be attached to rock not on sand bottom as crocea clams as i understood.
