So heres my 54 gal. corner oceanic tank with a 15gal homemade sump.
Stats first, pics at the end
first of all, my fishy list:
-1 Regal tang (had him since he was smaller than an inch, only about 2.5 inches now)
-1 mandarin (nice and fat)
-1 false percula clownfish
-1 green chromis
-1 cherub angelfish
-1 red velvet wrasse
-1 anthia (not sure what kind, was sold as orange anthia? - kinda looks like a squareback, starting to change into a male.)
Equipment:
I use a euro reef skimmer, mag 9.5 pump (throttled back for bubbles tho), one maxijet 900 and one 1200. I also have a seio 1500 for flow. I also have a 400 watt metal halide 20k coralvue(needs new bulb soon...) over the whole thing with 1 14watt actinic. Temp runs about 80 F almost all the time. All other params doing very well, no nitrates/nitrates, ammonia, etc.
Clams:
I have 4 clams. 1 maxima teardrop, 1 derasa which has grown about 2 inches since i got him 2 months ago, 2 croceas one is huge about 5 inches, the other crocea is only about 2 inches.
Corals:
11 acros
1 stylophora ~5 inches
3 montis (1 branching, 1 encrustingand branching, 1 cap that encrusts, branches, and is a cap all in one.)
tons of zoo's- about 40 little blues in there,
2 ricordia
1 blue mushroom -hitchiker
2 different kinds of xenia
1 hammer
almost 30 green clove polyps
I really can't think everyone on here enough for all the help that yall have given me. Right now i just need to work on getting a bigger tank :w00t if i can convince my parents. By the way my tank is almost 6 months old now. :blink So here are the pics,... Since this is a photography forum, Im using an olympus C-7000 Zoom. Its not the best, so I'm only posting a few pics. I haven't edited them except to crop a bit here and there. It actually looks a lot better than the pictures show,... So hopefully for xmas I'll get a better camera.
hopefully these will work... if not just use the link at the bottom and click on aquarium.
Well I hope ya'll enjoy the pics, I'll eventually get some better ones... :roll
In the meantime i have a few more aquarium pics here along with some really nice ones from alaska :skeezy and other places here: http://photobucket.com/albums/a302/Some_1else/ feel free to leave any comments/advice on my tank here! :wacko :wacko
