Pics from the 125g

Pedro has been wanting us to show some new pics of our tanks. Even though I've been pretty depressed about what is happening in my tank lately I took a couple of pics of the only thing good going on in there right now. As I've mentioned I'm not having any trouble with zoas or palys and even the green hairys are O.K. Wish I could say the same about every thing else but i can't. threw in a pic of the mated clowns I have, the female is black and white and the male is orange. the have eggs about once or twice a month on the rock next to the green hairy they're hosting.

Fire and Ice zoas



Tubbs Blue zoas



Nulcear Green palys



Red Palys



Zoas I picked up at the last auction

Purple Palys

Hopefully when I get the stuff in to get rid of the heavy metals I will see a big difference.

Full Tank

Here's a Full Tank pic I took today.

well things are starting to look a little better. Had the Cuprisorb and Poly filter in for about 2 weeks now and it appears to be making a difference.

We'll I added the Cuprisorb and a Poly-filter pad over two weeks ago and that seems to be what is making the difference now. Most of the corals are starting to look much better than they have in a long time.

Well the tank is doing better in some ways. I've put in a torch/frogspawn and a big Duncans coral recently and they are doing great. Still no luck with anything that even looks SPS and can't get polyp extension on my leathers.

Got a problem now with nitrate up to about 20. I'm sure that is because I took out my biopellets thinking that might be the cause of the problem(it wasn't). Anyway, now I've got to wait for he new pellets to kick in and start working which is probably a couple of weeks away. fish are all fine and dandy.

I'm thinking of going to a 150gal now. That's the tank I really wanted to get when I went from my 65gal to the 125.
