Also can you show more pics? and can you show a pic of the back like how much space you gave at the back

Ben Wong.
Sorry for the late reply guys, spent a week in Savannah seeing the sights.

If I could upgrade equipment it would be the calcium reactor (need a larger one) and kalk reactor and it now leaks thanks to the topoff tubing clogging from kalk buildup. The reactor built up so much pressure that it blew the seals. I would also upgrade the 50 mg/hr sander ozone generator to a larger one as this isn't quite enough. One piece of equipment I want is an aquacontroller. I want the III unit but can't quite afford that guy.

I will get more pics for you as well with the back and all.

quite a few well worth smackos there buddy! hows those clams going?
I don't even want to think of a dollar amount on that equipment.

The clams it took to buy all this are not doing well but the actual clams in the tank are doing quite well. The deresa is getting quite large and the croceas are hanging in there.

Just wondering about your heater. just wondering what was up, cuz i know its common to have two heaters, and you only have won.........(you don't have to reply to that question, just a gag to lighten up a young persons heart )

But great work on the tank, i know mines smaller but seeing yours still gets the blood pumping and gets me anxious to get that up and running.

hmm, my notify must be on vacation, I didn't see those last two ones.

Cute on the Won joke.

Here we go!!!

Two full tank shots, probably almost identical...




A kinda blurry shot of a Bonsai Acro. I got this as a little spec and it is now finally getting some growth and color.



I got this from Coral Dynamics and it was about the size of a nickel when I got it.



Just a shot of the Ora Tort, bangaii and crocea

That sailfin is from the red sea, commonly known as the desjardini sailfin.

Here's a change from juve to adult
