Yeah, I should really finish mounting things. Currently it is 3" from the water.. Will be closer to 5"-6" he bulbs are a mix of 30* and 60* lenses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bimmerzs Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 3" seems really close, are those copper pipes on your fixture? Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Capt. Obvious Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 3" seems really close, are those copper pipes on your fixture? Cheers, 3" is too close, 6" is optimal And yes, they have been clear coated to prevent corrosion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Capt. Obvious Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 Well apparently one of the 2 tiny hermits I put in the tank was still long enough for a Kenya tree frag to attach to his shell, don't know how long that will last, but I guess it is kinda cool 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+brian.srock Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Yea screw spending money on frag plugs. Just start gluing everything to the back of shells and you'll have an endless combination of coral arrangements in your tank at all times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Capt. Obvious Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 Attended the RCA garage sale this past weekend to purchase a few items for my main tank, and took advantage of the Free table gaining a heater and 2 airpumps and an unknown mini hang on filter for the pico build 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Capt. Obvious Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 I siphoned out the sandbed as the flow from the maxijet kept it all blown to one side of the tank. I have also had to pull the flaming prawn goby out of the sump on more than one occasion, but he is doing very well, but still a recluse. The palys are doing great spawning new babies all the time, some even on the other side of the tank. The green palys have even begun cascading over from the top ledge. I'll post a picture later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
