That looks sweet, not gonna lie... how much did that light set you back?
Thanks! I got the 12g aquapod with the 70 watt Sunpod for $150 from marinedepot.com. They were clearing out their inventory. Drs foster and smith did it too for about $175. Other sites are now doing it as well. The 70 watt sunpod by itself is normally $200-$250. SWEET light though. I love it.

I love the moonlights which is what I used to take the pics because it was late and I really didnt feel like turning on the MH for only a couple of minutes. There are separate white and blue LEDs and the look awesome.

I really really need to get more rock in there so i can stock the stinkin thing!!

Seriously Bro. You bought this tank over 2 months ago. I need to get rid of all these hairy and bubble algae covered plugs you gave me. ;-)

Hey I was just kidding man. Seriuosly though you probably won't want any of the plugs back. you won't want most of the rocks back either. Like the one with those red mushrooms. It's covered in hair algae.

We should plan a day for you to come by and we can cut everything up and get it off of the plugs and rocks onto your new plugs before you take it. Otherwise you won't want to put any of it in your new tank. Aptasia up the wazoo too.

Let me know.

It's cool Cris! I know you!

Thats cool about the plugs and all. We'll take care of it. I have been trying to by more LR all week but I am waiting for Eye Candy to get their new order in. I like their rock/prices. As soon as they get it in, Ill just have to finish the cycle and I will be hitting you and Eddy up for some frags!

I just noticed that I have over 2000 views on this thread and ZERO corals! hmmm...

A lot of people are expecting a lot out of you Mr. Top Poster/Moderator man. So far you've been, well..... Dissapointing. ;-) you've had A LOT going on the last couple months though so I guess we can wait a little while longer. Don't wait too long though.... you don't want to let down all your "fans". :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think I've succesfully fragged one of the Red Mushrooms. That Green one I'm not so sure about. I tried, but I think the piece I cut off might have died. The original mushroom is still kicking though. That thing did not like being cut on.

I read about fragging toadstools too. That thing has been doing really well lately.... weird how that makes me want to cut it up isn't it?

Let me know how their LR looks.... I wanna get some more too.

Still Nothing?

I'll be home this Sunday. Do you want me to bring these frags over or do you want to come choose which ones you want? If you don't want them then I'm going to send them up to that guy from Chico.

Oh I have something now Cris! I would like to grab those frags from you. I should be able to come by this Sunday. You know what I am really missing is the neon green toadstool... do you still have that? Thanks again for holding the frags for me.

Eddy (Edgray) really hooked me up... as always. He gave me a bunch of stuff to get my tank off to a good start. Here are some pictures, I didn't get pictures of ALL of the frags and some haven't opened yet...






















These have a bit of tissue damage but they should recover nicely...








Ill keep you all updated...

Finally something to look at. Man Eddy did take care of you. The colors are fantastic. Your photography skills aren't to shabby there friend. I can slice off a little piece of that toadstool for you.

Let me verify with the little woman that I'm good on Sunday. I'll let you know.

Thanks... one of my favorites from Eddy's tank. Yes they are hardy as are most mushrooms. The color is amazing.

That'd be awesome if I could get a frag from you Cris. And yeah hopefully I can stop by Sunday before the big game.

looks good, cant wait to see it progress. ed really has some good stuff.

congrats
Thanks Erik, I can't wait for it to mature. And Ed really does have some nice stuff.




I feel like I am copying Eddy with my tank but oh well! My goal is to make it mostly a zoa/paly garden with the neon green candy canes and the neon green toadstool and the sand bed will be predominately ricordeas and mushrooms. I will hopefully be getting some cool stuff like nuclear green/purple death palys, jokers, armageddons, ruby reds, maybe some rainbows and I may throw a duncan in there too.

Ayways, I am just enjoying having another tank up and running finally. It is nice having an AIO system now... much easier than that other crappy system I had going.

Hey Ed... nice of you to finally post on my thread!

Mike, it's is nice to have friends who are so generous!


So I took a new pic of the candy canes and they are healing pretty nicely:

Here they are on Jan. 28th...



and here they are today, one week later (dont mind the zooxanthellae or dead tissue or whatever... I blew it off after the pic...




Have I mentioned how good it feels to have another tank?!? Especially one that I already love so much? I am really pleased with everything about it so far. The AIO's are great. the ease of operation is awesome.
