has been almost a year and everything was a 2" frag at one point except my sand dollar and all my digi's went from 1.5" to over three inches and has been keeping the high growth rate for the past 6 months

absolutely awesome, you must be very proud...the tank is your 125? maybe someday my new will look that good

Haha ya is my 125 gal am a little behind where i want to be as my wallet hasnt co operated lately if wasnt for hunting season start id be having frag withdrawels lol but will be making a trip to bigshow hopefully before too long

Looking great. I've always been fascinated with horseshoe crabs. How long did they say it takes the horseshoe crab to get to it's full size? What are you going to do with it when it outgrows the tank? Go for a bigger tank? LOL Always looking for an excuse for a bigger tank (that's why I have so many, )

To be honest am not sure yvette he is only loonie size and considering they can live to be over 200 yrs old i doubt i will see him over a foot but once i get a house i want a 400 gal shark tank so he will have a home there or i will donate him to ripleys aquarium in toronto im sure they would enjoy him helping out cleaning substrate

tank is in my basement so dont get to stare at it all day seahorse tank is in the livingroom but how everything is setup the only open area wouldnt hold a 125 gal or would prob tilt my floor a bit being too far from any support beam and only spanning 2 joists.... when we move out the co-op to a house will be painted black just too lazy to re attach the back at the moment lol

 

[EricTMah]

Fair enough

 

[scubasteve]

and thanks for the kind words but will look nicer when i make it out your way.... dang work always in my way

 

[scubasteve]

so finally have the sick one nursed back to health and in my reef and the best part is that he set that yellow tang straight without even a tail flap.... he is such a nice addition especially having 2 larger tangs playing nicely which we all know doesnt allways work out

Does he always stay near substrate like in photos?

nope he actually swims around constantly when i built up my lr i stacked it so there were large caverns all through so even my larger fish navigate my rockwork. he was picking at the sinking pellets blowing around the bottom because i just fed them

[scubasteve]

yay new arrival today from bigshow a nice beauty clam.... finally got me a bright blue one someone else has one slightly bigger with same pattern lucky them i wanted it lol

 

[scubasteve]

so i beleive my two feather dusters are breeding....day i noticed 4 little tubes with the coloured crowns and they for sure arent glass anemones. i can only assume its the free floating larvae settled in the sand bed as they arent in a cluster but all about a foot away from each other. was really cool to notice since i wanted to buy more anyway guess i dont have to now
