I didnt say I am done...just that the "tank" is done.

I will still buy corals here and there, but as far as equipment, and placement, the tank is done

I am moving on 5/26/10 and my tank is not allowed in the new building...The breakdown has already begun, and I have sold many corals. There will be no more pictures in this thread.

I am sorry to disappoint, but I have no choice...I hope you enjoyed this thread, I hope it inspired you, and perhaps even gave you a few ideas.

Thank you for looking and following along with me on this tank....it will be missed

Tonight, my Fire Shrimp had yet another spawning....as I was checking out all the baby shrimp, my cardinal decided to enjoy a midnight snack. I know I stated in my previous post "There will be no more pictures in this thread", but I had to take a few pictures. Was very tough with the elph and a flashlight, this was the best I could do.

FYI, the cardinal in this picture has a body of about 3/4", with tail/fin approx. 1.5", the spawn are so small it is almost hard to see them

Correct me if I am wrong, but are you able to see thru the fish's eye? Look at the shape of the hole in the rock, and the purple coraline...isnt the mirror image seen in the fish's eye?

 

[acrocrazy]
