Been awhile since I've checked this Greeny.. Rhydonculous seems to be the word to do it justice.. As with a few commenters above if I could build a tank half as good as yours I'd be more than happy :D

Its looking pretty damned sweet atm matt!! Showed my wife today and she was impressed... hopefully it will help when it comes time to buying stuff.... "Honey do you want it to look like the one on the forum or not" :rolleyes Who was writing that book again on how to mislead our better halves ;)

got a new lens for new years, so i will try take some new decent pictures!

 

[tonyf]

hey is fine tony! few more years untill he gets to big, i have a very open scape with lots of swimming room for its size so far it seems all good, have had him a few months now!

Great news. i would really love to get one when my tank is ready.

 

[Sarg]

What lens did you get?

 

[MTG]

Just another standard 18-55 :rolleyes

 

[Sarg]

I was going to get a good wide angle tele but now i'm heading down the reefer road it'll have to wait and make do with what i got 18-105 I think kit lens anyway but it's pretty good.

 

[MTG]

enjoy!

 

[Sarg]

Nice pics, like the view from the top not an angle you see alot of.

a pic of my red fungia, love this coral wont extend through the day tho, havent seen to many like it.

should have seen this before i tidyed up the cabling

been getting some strange skimmate for the last few days, seems to look like cyano?

and my puppy

 

[Sarg]

Cyano bad? Just had a brief google.

 

[MTG]

It's not good to have in the display tank smothers corals and looks shit, not sure if it is cyano and it was only in the skimate , strange

Hi Matt, I found fungia a bit hard to keep myself ,I love that there are so many colour forms too.

Was still thinking about your clam loss and you are not going to like this suggestion from DD
" clams are very susceptible to attack from bristle worms , especially when positioned on a sandy or gravel substrate. If you have had clams die in the past this is proberbly why. The worms attack the base of the clam at night and slowly eat it out from the inside."

 

[MTG]

what happened was it got damaged by something. and as soon as its flesh started to fowl the bristleworms ate it alive :mad:

 

[MTG]

Had a visit from braddles today checking out the setup, think i should give the tank and sump a good clean tomorrow!
