It's clean today! So I just had to take a picture!

ErYn · 05-10-2006, 04:06 PM

smidoid · 05-10-2006, 07:08 PM

I like the way you can see right through it.

**Poseidon** · 05-10-2006, 07:15 PM

Very Nice! Why 2 temp probes? Is one of them suspect?

LOL! Thanks

Thanks guys!

One temp probe is for the heater and one is for the thermometer.

Beautiful,Sara!

I sure am envious of ll the wide open space you got there. Speaks volumes of your patience...

sihaya · 05-10-2006, 10:35 PM

Thanks... but huh? Why do you think it takes patience to have open space? I just have less rock than most people, that's all.

I wasn't talking about your rock or amount of it... LOL I;ve seen tanks with the same amount of rock but they had hardly any space left for growth...even sand bed was covered with corals. I'm pretty guilty myself but all my corals simply grew too large, or so I;d like to think.

sihaya · 05-10-2006, 10:59 PM

Ooooh.... really? Thanks. I actually was thinking that my tank looks a little crowded!! Too many of those guys have some looong sweeper tentacles! But they're mostly slow growing, so I don't worry much about it. That red montipora frag is growing like crazy though. It's tripled in size in only 2 months or so.

**charlie** · 05-10-2006, 11:14 PM

Alright!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! An lps dominated tank. I agree with Gene, the wide open look is really nice. Look at your pics now, and then again in a year. You will be glad there is that much room.
Very nice.

sihaya · 05-11-2006, 11:19 AM

Yes, I love my "lps" (though I hate that term... I prefer LMS for "low maintenance stony" lol). And they *need* a lot of room. A few of them have real attitudes. The one in the lower right hand corner used to have it's sweepers out even during the *day* until I moved it to give it more space. And there's a reason that xenia isn't all up on the Acan... they die if they get too close.

smidoid · 05-11-2006, 12:12 PM

I want a clam like yours - pity my tank isn't big enough. <sigh>

jasutton · 05-11-2006, 03:38 PM

sihaya · 05-11-2006, 03:48 PM

Oh there's algae! It's just all in the back behind the rocks. LOL (Well... in my refugium too of course)

Tree background? LOL That's funny. You should see it at night or on a stormy day... just looks awesome (almost gothic).

sihaya · 05-11-2006, 03:57 PM

Here's an older pic at night...

c04r4l0v3r · 05-11-2006, 04:50 PM

how do you get your pics on here lol

sihaya · 05-11-2006, 05:15 PM

I load them up into photobucket... then I "right click" on the photo in my photobucket album and click "view image" or "open image in new window" (depending on what browser you're using). Then I paste that URL to my post and put [img] [/img] around it.

So for example... this is the url I used for the first pic:
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...06/a47ere2.jpg

If I were to put the image tags around it, it would show up as a photo and not a link. Get it? Try it... it's not hard, I promise.

sihaya · 05-11-2006, 05:17 PM

Accidental post... sorry

c04r4l0v3r · 05-11-2006, 06:47 PM
