angler tank....? what type?

 

[Galantra]

I am happy the tank finally gets used. Can't wait to see photos

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Galantra, it is getting used alright!

Sjsoto, this angler tank will not be a histrio histrio tank like my last one. I am going to go for an Antennarius type true angler this time.

I always wanted to do an angler tank. They are such cool fish. Can't wait for those pictures.

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

I had one before tim and it was great.

I know I have been bad posting pics I will try to take some this week.

 

[KathyC]

We'll be here waiting patiently!

 

[sjsoto]

looking foward to see angler....

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Well here is the long awaited pic. Damsels are in isolation Direction of the tank might change drastically depending on the survival of the clowns I got on monday at Oceans Gallery. They are too cute and this might turn into a Clown RBTA tank with a little surprise as well Will update further in a little bit, after the lighting upgrade. Now I need a skimmer LOL.

 

[Awibrandy]

Guess the angler lost.lol

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Not yet, we need to find out after the lighting upgrade. The PC lighting is ok but it does heat stuff quite a bit. In such a small tank the fan is trying to keep up but is getting a workout LOL

I am going to upgrade to 3 powerbrite LED strips and see how that looks, all will be 50/50 and maybe I will upgrade the moon lights as well.

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Lighting upgrade is under way also added the Sapphire Aquatics skimmer for the BC14 today. Pics to come.

 

[Mangas50]

how do you like the saphire skimmer.

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

It came on Friday and I just set it up Saturday morning I will update on the progress as I go. Right now the fit is great and it is very quiet. Breaking it in as we speak. If I like it enough I may get one for my solana tank.

 

[sjsoto]

nice harlequin shrimp you got there, whats the surprise?

Dude, as far as smaller tanks go, I find those powerbrite LEDs amazing-i run mine12-14 hours/day, the corals LOVE it.
