Nice job with the rock work. Did you use any type of motar?

Kdawg_69 · 10/10/2013, 07:54 PM

amore169 · 10/11/2013, 09:08 AM

It's that aiptasia on one of the rocks? By the way you have a beautiful tank.

Kdawg_69 · 10/11/2013, 09:22 AM

yep its aptasia but for a while we have been trying some peppermint shrimp out but they aren't working out so we are going to get some aptasia x and take care of them that way

Hi i was looking at your nice tank, quick questions and for anyone else with answer , what to you use to hold your rock work together i know its not just placed because if it is thats a good balancing act. Is it the norm to hold it together or not with something.

Kdawg_69 · 10/14/2013, 05:34 PM

The answer you seek is only a couple of posts up but we drilled the rock in order to slide it over 1/2 dia cpvc pipe in order to stand it up in the tank we bought cement pavors from lowes and then drilled the same hole in them about halfway through and then used the sand to hide them if you want to come over one day and check them out and i can show you more pics of the process just inbox me on here

sirshark · 10/14/2013, 05:40 PM

Thanks i saw the process on your photoshop pics, just wondering if that was the better option than using some kind of epoxy.

sirshark · 10/14/2013, 05:42 PM

I mean photobucket pics

Kdawg_69 · 10/14/2013, 06:37 PM

i think it is because you don't have to worry much about leaching and stuff like that

pnavarro170 · 10/15/2013, 10:47 AM

looks great, thanks for posting

TimGentry · 10/31/2013, 09:13 PM

I have the Tubbs Blue frag ready for you

stvguerrero · 11/04/2013, 01:45 PM

nice set up you created, look cool

Kdawg_69 · 02/08/2014, 08:14 PM

well the tank was in auto pilot mode for a while and with that came the onsault of byporis hair algea so we have now gone to great lengths to rid our tank of it hopefully soon we will be able to post pics of the tank when it gets back to normal anyways hope everyone is having fun with their tanks

pnavarro170 · 02/11/2014, 09:53 PM

Thanks for the update, hope you get it cleared up, if it is bryopsis try raising mag, shortening light time and all that stuff.

Kdawg_69 · 02/12/2014, 01:06 PM

Already in process just trying to make sure to do it slowly but surely

Kdawg_69 · 04/11/2014, 10:32 PM

Here is our latest tank shots got rid of the byporis finally had to raise mag and shorten light span but we are good now. Changed our aquascape just a little bit. and we have now added dosing pumps and started to dose CA and ALK and mag on a regular schedule now. anyways on to the main things pictures

hope yall like the update

915MANG · 04/12/2014, 06:49 AM

Everything is looking good!

Tristan66 · 04/12/2014, 05:28 PM

Good job on the reaquascaping. Love that mix cap coral. Haha. Lol
Nice to see that everything is doing good.
How are you holding the top rocks, are they cemented?

Kdawg_69 · 04/12/2014, 07:40 PM

yeah so do we Tristan anyways the top rocks are held on by pipe with a hole drilled through the rock very carefully. and there is some concrete holding the ledge that sticks out from the tower on the right.

Kdawg_69 · 04/28/2014, 03:42 PM

So we did some spending last night and finally got our red dragon acro we have been waiting forever in a day along with quite a few different really awesome pieces from Aqua SD out of San Deigo CA anyways we'll have pics once everything starts coming in which is going to be a little interesting with how busy this house has been for the last few months lol

mrcyrus · 04/28/2014, 05:21 PM

Cool tank, hit me up if you come up with any euphyllia frags. You have a nice torch there.

Snyper19 · 04/28/2014, 05:44 PM
