What are you trying to chill, its is winter

Future planning

Future planning

sorry my mistake, i thought future chiller would be by next year, not in 20 years time.

:roll: not everybody has the funds to buy everything they want for their tank straight away!

For sure, Times are also getting tuff with the economy. making cuts myself as sky tv is getting more expensive every time i open the bill.

Well If I found that Fans worked well like they did on the old tank, I wouldn't bother with a chiller at all!

My cost for Fans - $0

Cost to run Fans - $ not enough to warrant the investigation.

My cost for BASIC chiller - $500

Cost to run Chiller - $I'd hate to think!

Well it wasn't planned, but tonight everything was transferred. Everyone seems happy, although I am a wee bit concerned about my purple firefish, didn't seem very happy once in the tank, hopefully it'll be alright.

Some pics... (The rocks in the sump will be removed, they're only in there temporarily)

Thanks to John at Organism for the loaner lights

yay, bet those tangs will be loving that extra swimming space. I see you've got a clip on light in your sump, are you going to be running a fuge or is that so you can see what you're doing in there.

Was mainly to see what I was doing, but as someone round here said (I think it was puttputt) nearly all sumps turn into a fuge eventually

yeah planning to have a fuge in my next setup. One silver lining from my tank disaster was with only the mandarin and blenny left theres been a big expolosion in pods and snails and my male mandarin has finally started to fatten up. So i plan on adding a fuge to the setup i'm working on at the mo so that he remains fat

hows the firefish today?

Saw both the Red and Purple after work last night, however only the red one has been parading around. Looks so tiny in such a big tank lol

Pic update:

And the newest edition, anemone. Took the clowns less than 30 mins to realise what it was, and they basically sat inside it while the anemone moved around working out where it would stay. Seems to be happy where it is now, hasn't moved its foot since it got there

Can anyone tell me what type it is? It acts like a bubble, and I have seen bubble like tentacles during the night, but nothing like the large bubbles commonly seen.

Its a bubble Tip Anemone (Entacmea Quadricolour) .

ooh jealous , is it an rbta? hows the move gone, i see you've got a little diatom growth hows that going

Great pics! You must be happy they found the anemone so fast - obviously love at first sight!!!!

Tank looks great - beautiful stand too

ooh jealous , is it an rbta? hows the move gone, i see you've got a little diatom growth hows that going

Nah its green so wont be rose. Move has gone well, all done now and old tank is empty and ready for a new home. Diatoms, yep, and its way worse than it looks on those photos! New sand, kinda expected it.

is it an rbta?

NO. not a rose, unless colour blind.

This is a rose anemoe

yeah colour blind, is it just me or does it look pink the top photo?

THe photo makes it look pink :oops: stupid camera

lol at least its not just me!

Some new pics

Borrowed a Sony Alpha 350 and 100mm F2.8 Macro lens from work. Have decided i'll never buy one. My Canon 20D was soooo much easier to use in so many ways!

very nice Matt

looks fabulous, i'm very jealous in my almost fishless tank.. have ordered a copperband through john, hopefully one turns up soon, i need fish!!

uh, are you getting a cbb as your first fish? 0.0?

Tank looks GREAT Matt! Well done!
