Rebirth of the 40 frag tank

[Myteemouse]

Nice skimmer!

So, the 40's been revamped AGAIN, since I last posted here. I've neglected this thread, horribly. So, here's pics of some corals we got, today. Pics taken just a few minutes after placing them in the tank.

Echino

Acan. The green background is a frogspawn...lol

Did the tang ever make it into the 40? Corals look great!

 

[Peppie]

Very nice pics of your new stock. Have you got a FTS?

 

[returnofsid]

The tang was in a different tank. It recovered from the Lymphocystis, but then jumped a few weeks later...Grrrr.

The 40 looks completely different that the previous photos, though I do not have a full tank shot. I'll try to get one, in the next few days.

 

[dawgwe1]

Sorry about the tang... I changed from a 29g to a 40b about a month ago and it is great!!!

Originally, we had a 40 set up, specifically as a frag tank, along with the 200 and Angie's 24 gallon Aquapod. Then, we dismantled Angie's nano, putting everything in the 40. THEN, we adopted a 75...lol. So, in the last couple of months, the 40 has undergone another complete make over. I'll try to get more pics and information, about it, soon!

Dangit, I just took a bunch of pictures too, but forgot to take any FTS or any of the fish, except the Flame Wrasse, in the 200. Guess I need to get the camera back out...lol

Maybe it would be best to just to set the hooka aside for a little while and try to remember why you picked up the camera to start with. FTH and some of the fish that are in your revamped 40.... Remember the request? LOL

Just kidding about the hooka, right?

Nah, taking photos of my newest Granddaughter was a bit more important.

I still haven't got a FTS, of the 40. I was using the 100mm Macro, and didn't get around to changing lenses, to the lens I'd need for a FTS.

8 Lined Wrasse

Juvenile Orange Shoulder Tang, which will go into the 200, soon.

???GRANDDAUGHTER???
You all are not old enough for a granddaugter!
I think I said that before.....

She is beautiful!

 

[returnofsid]

LOL she's my second. My other is 2. I'm old

 

[returnofsid]

Oh and thank you! Yes, she if beautiful!

 

[returnofsid]

A few new additions and such...

This guy came in on a small Maricultured Acropora colony. I decided not to destroy it, as I'm pretty sure it's one of the beneficial Acropora crabs, generically referred to as Bandit Crabs.

 

[Maxx]

Yeah, that looks like one of the good crabs to have Sid.

Great pics by the way. I need to get a macro lense for my camera....

Here's a quick video I just took. I've never really taken much for video, especially with a cell phone, since I have an HD Camcorder and my Canon 7D shoots video, but this cell phone stuff is pretty simple and easy to upload to Youtube...lol.

 

[returnofsid]

I should mention, all flow is turned off, except from the skimmer, since I'd just fed the Acans, Chalices and some of the Zoanthids.

Holy Crap Michael! What is the SPS frag at 1:06? It almost looks like Garf Bonsai, but not quite...LMK! Beautiful work!

 

[returnofsid]

Thanks Gina. That is several large frags of garf bonsai awaiting the trip to the Bob Moore frag swap.
