Yeah he has a battery backup for the pump.

 

[usmc121581]

I have no micro bubbles.

 

[usmc121581]

That is very impressive, Steve!

I see there are two pipes running from the bottom of the tank to what appears to be the same place in your filter. Did you add two so it could move more water and each is functionaly equivelant?

Also, how does a reef ready tank differ from a regular tank?

I wish I could go go down the reef road myself but the puffer fish I can't part with would devour everything.

The differences are that a reef ready has the over flow built into the tank already and it will never overflow. And a regular tank you need to purchase a over flow box ito get the water from the main tank to the sump.

Ya cause if i did that it would make everything better wouldent it mike? NO, no more trips the the hardware store, not more wasting my time and money, im sick of it. sure i could fix the bubbles but that wouldent solve all my problems would it mike. Wouldent fix the noise,wouldent fix the ugly stand,wouldent make the tank fit im my room any better,wouldent fix the p.o.s. pc fixture, wouldent make the tank live up to my expectations. I may have found something much better. And im not throwing it all away, im selling most of.(case anyones interested send me a pm)

You cant just give up like that. You put all that money into it and now your going to throw it away. Thats not a good attitude towards it. Me and CRM have ran into problems with our setups before( at least I did) I didnt just drop it and walk away. I fixed it and moved on. If I couldnt I learned to live with it. Dont let something this easy take you down. well steve I want to see a whole bunch of SPS's in there next week.

 

[usmc121581]

I want to see a close u of that zenia.

 

[usmc121581]

Nice. Just wanted a close up because in the other pics they dint appear to look like they were doing to good. But up close they seem fine. Just dose the tank with essiantial elements and stuff like that. So they will have something to feed on. Or you can direct feed them with cyclopeze. Just keep an eye on them though out the cycling process. They are very touchy specimens. Just a tip if you notice some ding off as long as some part of it is there it will come back. Tell steve to send some this way. I cant get my to spread like every one else.

 

[usmc121581]

Your a genius now Lauri. No yeah your right it is. I have a ton of them.

 

[usmc121581]

I have one in mine. But he is to big to fit into a hole. I also have a 12" serpeant star with him.

 

[usmc121581]

Glad to see everything is doing good.

 

[usmc121581]

I had a yellow tang that I had to return to my lfs because he would literally bat all of the other fish around with his tail once he got comfy. Mine may have just been psychotic :demented:

The tank looks great! Forget tv dinners... if I had that thing at my place it would be all reef, all the time!

As have most people so yours was acting normal.
