Rocketman Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Nice Tank Rossco Does that floor need extra strenghting to carry the weight of the tank when filled ? I'm considering a larger setup at some stage , but wondering about the extra weight etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossco Posted December 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Its an older type house which is pretty well built anyway but even so, for peace of mind we put another 200 X 50 under middle of tank with three 125 X 125 piles. It heavy, but spread. No different to about ten large people standing together...on a tablecloth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossco Posted December 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 We got some stuff in our new tank... One day when I'm not playing with it (the tank!) I'm gonna learn how to 1) take decent pictures 2) if that fails learn how to edit the photos! Only got MHs over 2/3 of the tank so far...

jetskisteve Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Which halides Rossco? the old ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossco Posted December 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 They are actually the new ones! Shows how much the camera doesn't do the brightness/colour justice. Huge difference. Really like the 20k MH - brings out the greens and blues a heap more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetskisteve Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 is that 2 or 3 running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossco Posted December 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 2 out of the 3 (on left). Still a bit of a pile of rocks but there are 'holes' through the rockwork which are the black bits. Wanted to have plenty of rockwork to put my acros on. As well as that my maroon tries to keep the area around its anemone clear of unecessary obstructions like acros :evil: so its taken centre stage a bit.

wasp Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Very nice! Seems like there is a lot af action in Hamilton if I can get the time I would like to spend a day there, do a tank crawl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 One day when I'm not playing with it (the tank!) fun isn't it!! Looking great it took about 10 months to get my main tank finished and just finished the cube after 12 months :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazymranch Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 Did you raise those Banggai from fry? My male has a mouth full of them and I am pretty sure that I don't have what is required to raise them, but it would be interesting to know what it takes.

rossco Posted December 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 No, didn't raise them myself but I suspect someone else in NZ did! Apparently the male carries the fry in his mouth for quite a while so makes it a bit easier. Would probably need to put them in a separate tank though cause it would only be a matter of time before they became chop suey in a communal reef tank...

suphew Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Keep us updated on how you go with two types of cardinal, I didn't think you could keep both togeather, it will be interesting to see if they last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossco Posted December 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Oh c'mon - they hardly blinked at each other when I put them in. Me guesses the real test will be when the the bangais get bigger - hope they don't start yelling 'banzai'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
