~ Todd's 125g ~ Part IV~ Building of the Reef~

[Saltwater Stu]

It really is the nicest, cleanest, clearest tank I've seen! Well done sir!

How quickly time flies... so here is a long over-do update on the 125g. The corals under my DIY LED's have seriously overgrown their alotted spaces yet have mostly behaved. To be safe have been doing quite a bit of pruning on ones known to cause harm or be harmed. Fish are doing very well for the most part though the Powder Bue has given up his Crown to the now larger Blochi. My two Tailspot Blennies paired up and believe that they laid their first batch of eggs a few weeks back... no survivors that I know of.

[Peppie]

The growth on your tank is unreal!!
I can remeber when ou could see down thru the canyon. Not as easy now.
Now all you need to do is top off the tank with a new wooden light encloser. LOL

 

[TJL]

Thanks Kirk and Dave, I almost have the shop back in working order to finally start the canopy build amongst some other projects in mind.

Cheers, Todd

This post is worthless without pictures.
Really? You had to reaquascape just for those three frags I sent you home with. I didn't realize they were that big.

 

[rainydave]

Did your tangs clean up the new pieces?

 

[TJL]

Dave, by Friday afternoon ***SPOTLESS*** though the Tangs had some help as a handfull of Bumblebee Snails and one of my Cowries also found all that Hair Algae mighty tasty...lol
Duane, yea between getting Corals from you and Mike, Dave also brought over a couple and some Ric rocks I had to squeeze in.

I'll clean up glass and post some pics tomorrow sometime.

Cheers, Todd


P.S. Also will have an updated livestock list with some new additions coming in from Hawaii

Looking at the close ups of your reef has proven me wrong, I seen several 1'' square spots for more corals!!!
