Those nems are sweet!!!!

Your DIY rock looks pretty good. My attempt at that was an epic fail. The local dump now has a pile or wanna be reef rock. = )

Looks great. Glad the tank move went well. Not always a fun thing to do.

Lookin awesome!

Are you sure that tank is going to stay together with the trim removed? I'd be a little concerned going rimless on a 55 gal tank with glass that thin. The trim keeps the glass from bowing out with...

Glass tops will help reduce evaporation a little but will also contribute to heat in the tank. Invest in a good Auto top off system like JBJ ATO. It's a life saver for me. Another good investment...

When I saw you post "jawfish" I was ready to warn you how they aren't hearty and you have to really make sure they're eating. But you menitoned Tiger Jawfish....probably one of the heartier jawfish....

Those are really cool. But just a heads up.... Fungia really should be on the sand. They are motile (able to move) and if they fall will be very easily injured. They also prefer low flow. You...

I have duncans. Love mine. A little trick to make them happy and growing fast....target feed! = )

^ very very good advice.
Especially the part about not going bigger than your budget can handle. It's not too hard to do a smaller tank on a tight budget. I went from a 46 gal to a 110 gal and I...

I looked at that getliverock site. Prices are pretty good but he can get more for his money and really nice looking rock at Marcorocks.com. 50lbs of dry rock for $119 no tax no shipping.

Oh yeah....it's a symbiotic relationship. There are many many species of goby that will pair up with a pistol shrimp. Mine is an Orange striped prawn goby aka Randall's Goby or for you scientic...

Just be aware that wrasses and blennies (wrasses especially) like to jump. Just FYI I do love wrasses though. I had a trio of filamented flasher wrasses at one time (all ended up as carpet jerky)...

The corals I already have are a few acan Lordes, frog spawn, hammer, zoas, palys, favia, a tyree green toadstool, Solitaryensis, setosa.

I have a mix of everything, sps, soft, and lps.

Definately sounds like you have a tiger pistol shrimp by the description. Kind of a cool little critter. He will excavate under the rocks to make his home. So just be sure your rock is seated well...

Beautiful St Bernanrd!


Oh...and the tank's pretty cool too. :hmm3grin2orange:

A clear water picture taken this morning. Need to get in there today with a tube of IC gel and glue some corals. Not going to glue too much down as the house I'm currently renting is now in the...

Thanks Taz. Yeah, I measured out the square on the wood to the outside dimensions of the tank. OOPS. That layout just didn't work the same in the tank. There didn't seem to be enough room in...

Thanks Brad. Everything that went into this tank was transferred over from the 110 except the sand and rock. The water is 60% water from the 110 and 40% fresh mixed. I stacked a bunch of live rock...

Hi ya Dave!!!!!!! I've missed talkin to you!!!! Thanks for the "nifty cool".

Turned out a little different once in the tank...but I like it. Pics don't do it justice at all. Lots of little caves and nooks and crannies. The fish seem to love it! Still cloudy. I will post...

A couple dry mock ups.......

Have every plan to do that. Rock is still not here. It's 5 pm my time and Fedex still hasn't delivered. I hate that they get to my neighborhood so dang late!

Standing by the front door waiting.....waiting.....waiting....................:18:
