No more huge fish. Small yellow tang always welcome! Monster yellow, not so much.......

That monster PB is going to need something bigger so it won't get picked off.


How about some chalices to this thread?!

Need to start my collection of chalices :thumbsup:
 
Finally got my monster ATO container made by the local acrylic guy. I'm super happy with it, mainly because I won't have to fill the sucker up everyday!!! Pictures coming up tomorrow.

Stop monkeying around. and do close up pics!

I've got mediocre stuff. Dragon eyes, lunars and JPS Golden Showers. LOL

No, I've gone with dual MP40s on the display and dual MP10s on the frag tank. Still got some monkeying around with the return nozzles in the frag tank. Lack of flow towards the overflow sucks.
 
How high are you running your MP40s? I have my 3 at 35-40% and I can't keep the sand in one place. It literally sucks up the sand in a little tornado and blows it everywhere. If I move it up, it creates a votex and blows bubbles. Maybe I didn't need that third one after all, LOL!

When I had sand, it was at 30% or so. No sand, 45% tops in whatever mode. They move water!
 
Did a ton of stuff to the tank. Cleaned the return pump, the Jebao DC12000 was gummed up! Glad I have an extra propeller, simple vinegar for 30 mins and then brushed everything off. So much more flow coming from it, will have to clean every 3 months to make sure its in tip top condition.

For whatever reason my main tank seems to be going down, both frag and display have a common sump so I'm not sure whats going on. The frag tank is still doing awesome, hopefully it recovers. I've already lost my tri color colony. Got a few frags not looking too great, they might have to be transferred to the frag tank again.

Went to the Reef Visions Community frag swap in Tampa and got some nice stuff from WWC. Finally got the skittles favia and a grafted cap.

Some updates on pictures, I didn't take much since it was a full day of cleaning the tank and fixing the AC at home.

Grafted cap is coming along! Can't wait till it gets more grafted. Not from WWC, I've had this for a while and it was on the verge of death.
