looks good...nice to see you have more room for more stuff.

Looked really nice yesterday, Todd. I would like to see it again when you are all done. The pictures really don't do it justice, thanks for having me over with RainyDave.

I love the rock work Todd. I will have to stop by next time I'm up north and see it in person. I like how it looks like it's been set up for a while already because of all the corals in there. The new white sand gives it away though.

All of this work and Todd still has time to look out for his friends. Thanks for the heads up Todd.


I really like the finished aqua scape and coral placement. Cant wait to see it in person.

Thanks Guys, coming along slowly but steadily now. Got the Apex hooked up without much difficulty and showing temp, PH and ORP. All Coral but a few lil frags and some misc zoo's are in place annnnnnnnnnnd F-I-S-H with exception of my Powder Blue and Kole Tangs waiting a few more days to get the lil Naso and Blochii established before introducing them to the mix. Everyone is out-n-about and very responsive to meal time, my only concern is the Kleinii B-fly test-tasting everything. Have Floyd coming down tomorrow to help with getting the much needed LED Lighting going.

so one more quick-pic update with the temporary lighting

Cheers, Todd

Looking forward to it. I have your directions and will PM you right now.

Looking great Todd. Cannot wait to see the lights after Floyd helps you get everything wired up. Be sure and post a few pictures of the LED wiring process.

Cheers,
Alex

Agreed. Can't wait to see the LEDs.

I have been waiting for over 7 mos. to see the leds over this tank. Another week or so will not kill me.LOL
Todd your tank is really looking good. The inside of the tank looks very natural. And I cant say that about most of the rock piles I have seen On-Line. How is your flow working out? Find any dead spots?
There is so much more room in the new 125 for every thing to grow out.
Outstanding work.

 

[N1Husker]

It's beautiful, but now the real question, how long until you get the tile finished? Really, the tank is just super cool.

 

[TJL]

OK, one whole week now and no changes to the aquascape Hah! The fish & corals all seem to be doing well in new system, LED lighting and water flow. Charging the batteries in my SLR camera so thought I would throw up a vid I took with my point-n-shoot for now.

Nice and tropical on the inside and brrrr snowing outside today



Cheers, Todd

Zoom sound effects for Eric lol...

Awesome Todd. Yeah, days liek today I like to gaze into my tanks and dream of being somewhere tropical and warm. *lol* I was checking air fair to Hawai'i last night.

Cheers,
Alex

Thanks Alex, and me too. Here is a quick pic of tank from couch (watching the Playoffs) with temporary scrap moulding in place to block LED glare

must start canopy build next week

 

[eww]

Looks AWESOME Todd. We can't wait to come up and see it in person.

 

[fall0n]

Wow, looking great!!!

 

[Peppie]

I thought maybe you were starting a new fad with the trim facia as a light blocker. LOL

Any tricks up your sleeve for the hood?

BTW it does look like a small piece of heaven right there in your living room.

A cool pic this morning, beautiful tropical sunrise in the reef foreground with a wintery and snowy background. Currently 6" + and still snowing hard.

Cheers, Todd

 

[user 2204]

Sweet Todd. Looks like the fish is checking out the snow. 6+" WOW!!! We've only had about an inch maybe. Guess I am fortunate that my interview is next week and not this week.

Cheers,
Alex
