Re: My 60gal system build.
OK guys and galls, havnt updated for a while there has been a few changes to the tank, i have sold my clam as it wasnt happy with my high flow in the tank and i couldnt find a place for it where it was happy.
one of my shrimp has died i put that down to my tank getting to 31C the other day, nothing else seems to be too bothered by the temp spike. have re-aquascaped again, like it a lot now, my shroom has mulitiplied twice now, yey! And my tank it seems has finally gone through all the algae cycles and what not and now seems stable, eveything is growing! and now for the part you have all been wateing for the PICS!!! view from the front ![]() view from the side ![]() the view from the fish room door ![]() another one of my clown and nem just cuz i love um ![]() And finnaly a half good shot of my GSP ![]() hope you like, james ![]()

Re: My 60gal system build.
thanks guys, im so happy with it now, i lost intrest for a while when it was looking its worst, but it has bounced back and now im hooked again.
i think i am going to get rid of my hard corals and anemone, when i go to uni and ask my dad to look after it while im gone, it would be such a shame to take it all down and loose all the hard work and time that i put in to it. cheers james
