Tank looks great. What lighting do you have on it?

 

[RickM61]

18watt corallife 9w 10k 9 w 67k..as of tomorrow morning im changing the 67k to a true atintic..just add nuclear green zoa's and a pom pom crab.

Rick

 

[atlantic reefer]

thats pretty good lighting. Is it all one switch or are there 2 separate switches one for the 10k and one for the actinic? Those nuclear greens would look awesome under just actinics.

 

[RickM61]

its just 1 switch but i have another fixture that is broken..im going to try to put them on seprate switches when i have the time.
thank for the compliments

Very nice tank you have there! Do you have any more close up pics?

 

[mskitty]

[RickM61]

very cool. but it looks a bit over crowded to me. be careful they might start to sting each other as they grow.

I have taken some things out of there..mostly a zoa tank now the stuff that was in there bigger was for my 60 gallon reef..going to rescape it today also..plus fix the light..

Thanks

Rick

 

[nicco0315]

oh okay sorry.

 

[MediaHound]

Did you ever get your nuclear greens?
Here's an old pic of mine, from September of last year. It's up to ten polyps now though:

 

[RickM61]

yeah i got them... but im not sure they are true nuvlear greens they dont look like yours..had another set back..im going to have to move the tank...it gets way to hot where it is..so im moving it to the basement..pics will be coming soon.

Rick

 

[MediaHound]

Wow that would suck if you thought you were getting nukes but didn't!

 

[atlantic reefer]

Good luck with moving the tank, luckily its a small one so it will be fairly easy to move

 

[RickM61]

thanks mediahound and atlantic reefer..when i get it moved i will post pics of the so called nuclear grrens ..see what you think mediahound...

Rick

 

[RickM61]

ok i finally got the tank moved and the light fixed..i rescaped the tank..pulled some corals out..i will post some pics tomorrow..i had to wait for a freshwater tank to cycle to tank down another tank to move this little tank, but its done now..i will post closeups also..
