raeh1 Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Well finally I think i've sorted out the photos.. Please remember my camera is stink not even 1 mega pixel. This tank is a $1,450 tank... and about $600 in live stock This is my first setup in future I am to work out a high performance setup. 4 foot - 200 litre tank (sump less tank) Equipment Acardia 150 MH (series 3000) and 2* artic blues (2nd hand 6 months old) 1* seio 4,400 litre hour pump 2* aqua one 372 litre per hour pumps Weir pro protein skimmer (hang on back) with fluval surface skimmer Heater 300watt 40 kg coral rock and coral sand Various test kits 60 litre of water containers to collect NSW (thats it) Live stock2 Yellow tang 2* common clowns 2* blue chromis 2* cleaner shrimp Bulb tip anemone Clam and thousands of bugs........ and insects Coral (this is a soft coral setup) Trumpet coral Tonga yellow Green star polys Pulsing xenia Green finger leather 4 types of mushromms (blue, green, brown, green-brown) a tiny green brain brown leather and something else This tank is now 7 months old and all corals were pretty much frags when I got them. Future additions: Equipment will be a Deltec or aquamedic hang on skimmer, and another seio. Live stock: Strawberry dotty back and maybe a manadrin fish, a hermit crab, and a simple star fish, also a red brain. Tank changes: glass will be removed from the centre of the tank and replaced with stainless steel thin support as the light is being bloked by saltglass. I have no wish to have a sump as I surf and can and do NSW water changes of about 40% per week. I don't add any additive to the tank apart from fish and anemone food. Here are the pics I hope they work Cheers raeh1 look forward to you comments and advice on improving the setup I'd like to thank Brianemone for frags and advice when begining my setup.

raeh1 Posted July 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 PS the clowns love a rock at the front which is the only with algae on it. I don't think they will ever go in the anemone as they are happy there.. lucky there is no preditors or they would be lunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petplanet Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 That's weird that you clowns won't go near the anemone. Mine lived in a finger coral till I got them one. Moved into the anemone as soon as it was put in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Bit hard to see but looking good, anemone looks happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Mine live in a Euphyllia coral and ignore the anemone about 6" away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
