Samksy 150G Rimless Aquarium Tank Thread

[samksy]

I should post a pic of the juices flowing from my Bubble King 300 external, lol... It's a darker brew.

Ahhh, but your total system is close to 1000 gallon :smash:, mine only 150g and your skimmer cost probably 5 times more than mine.....lol!!! I'll show you some skimmate once my tank is fully of fish. Only got 5 fishes in the tank now, hahahha! I can't justify those cost yet, maybe some day.....hahahha!!! I'll have to check out your skimmer on my next visit. Maybe i'll switch to BK in 20 years

good. not bad

Hmmm, thanks.....what are you referring to?

It's closer to 450 gallons. The 240 is not ready yet which will give the system about 700+ gallons. I can sell you my BK in 5 years so that you don't have to wait that long, lol...

If you sell it now, i'll take it. I'll take out a loan just for BK....lol!!! j/k
I'm happy with my skimmer for now.:fishhit:

It's been a while and i finally added a refugium in my tank after looking high and low for a suitable refugium light bulb.

Nice tank!

 

[piranhapat]

Awesome tank, you looking to go bigger.

 

[samksy]

Nice tank!

Thank you Euroreefer!

Possibly or a grow out tank since my tank is very clutter now. Thinking

 

[samksy]

It's been a while......here's some fish shots, then some corals

My new addition

 

[samksy]

After second attempt, i can finally have a powder blue that is hardy enough to tolerate my tank conditions.

 

[samksy]

Some coral shots.....since my alk and cal parameter are kind of off, my coral didn't grow much but manage to survive until now....with the addition of a cal reactor, i'm hoping stuff would grow faster.



Gold Hammer

Hmmm, seems to have grown a bit since i got it from Mo.

Red planet

My LPS corner

Birdsnest

Peach hammer

Candycane

Acan from swap

Purple clove polyps

Green cap with purple polyps

Not sure in names, I picked up a few sps colonies from max reefs though for some great prices recently though....a neon green acro, white with blue tips acro, and an acro that looked similar to your garf bonsai.....once I find some time and a pair of clippers I'll try to get a small piece of each

 

[samksy]

THANKS!!! I'm ready whenever you are :lol_large:lol_large:lol_large. I went to MRA 3 times but every time i get there it's only the left over or pretty much all gone. I have to go on the day that they have next time :banghead:

Sps colonies go for $25 on sale days and $35 on regular days and the smallest colony I've seen is like 3"x3" but I've seen some close to 5"x5" for either price thats great......i think they get shipments in on sundays so aim for that....i went this past sunday and there was a sick selection...some guy got two pieces of this beautiful encrusting monti just before I could but still snatched a nice piece

Great pics Sam. I like the Candy Cane and Blasto :biggrin:.
