Thanks! And the tank is about a year old, but I have completely replaced the rock 3 times. This current rock is about 5 or so months. That is why the SPS aren't that huge yet haha
Tank looks great!
Thanks :)

Thanks! I do actually, I have a 5.5g with some SPS and LPS. I also have a planted FW pico with some hand caught fish :)

Thanks! Yes the clams are very neat, if you have the set-up for one get one lol, they are not for the inexperienced but amazingly cool.

Those duncans in the first picture this page are HUGE it almost looks like an elegance or something.
Once all the epoxy gets grown in and covered, that is gonna be one sweet tank!
Do you have any other plans for more fish or corals?
Jacobnano

I know they are! They went from 2 to 14 or so haha.
And yea, well they were all encrusted, but then I dipped them all for red bugs and recently re attached them, so theres a lot of white in there haha.
For fish maybe a BSJF, and a golden dwarf moray, for coral, acans, a plate and a brain.

New pics!!! I realized there has been a lot of growth, all the SPS and the zoa and the acans all have grown and colored up.

Absolutely killer stuff bro. Wish you lived closer so I could come raid your tank, I see lots more candies I need to add to my collection!
I also notice that you have had some great luck using epoxy, care to share your technique please. I haven't had any luck at all!
What is the fourth picture up from the bottom? Very unique.
Jacobnano

Haha thanks! Now that I am out of school I can get rid of that ugly algae haha.
I use it for everything! The trick is, use gel glue (has cyanochlorate ,spelling) and aquamend. You dry off the frag, apply some glue, then add some epoxy, then glue again. Apply it to the rock and you are done! The glue will hold it there while the epoxy hardens, once it is rock solid it will stay because it fills in little cracks and what not.
That is a maxi mini anemone I won :)

So you glue the frag to the still soft ball of epoxy and then put glue on the opposite side and mount it under water, right? I've just never had luck with epoxy, then again haven't tried in a few years.
I picked up some PE's like your green's down on the sand today! What kinda growth do you get from that particular morph?

Man!! This tank is really growing!!!
Thumbs up on whatever you are doing with that tank- you are doing it well!
Speaking of what you are doing with that tank...what are you doing????
Jacobnano
06-15-2010, 10:37 PM
Try it! It keeps snails and other critters from knocking over everything. Really handy.
They grow reaaaaaally fast for me haha.
Jacobnano
06-15-2010, 10:38 PM
Haha thanks! Umm really not much, added the phoenix bulb, and I have a skimmer running. The tank looks pretty bad right now because I haven't had time to do a water change in 3 weeks, but it will improve.
