Nice lookin' softie tank. Now where is this 500 SPS you speak of?

[blacklighter11]

awesome tank!

The video is very bright due to your lighting. I can't make out the white stalky soft corals that sit atop of your tank. Are those some type of rasta leathers? They look nice.

It is actually a SPS coral, but just died.. did not take it out of the tank yet.. so no fancy rasta soft coral:clown:

Actually, I was referring to the white moving soft corals top right side next to the toadstool. You also have a smaller colony on the bottom right.

ahhh,, now I know that you mean.. it is Kenya tree corals :)

[ReefingIt]

Thanks....is it actually white or does they appear white due to the bright lighting? I have some kenya tree myself but the stalks are no way near that long.

[Kenneth M Olsen]

they are quit white.. or very light pink.. think they look more white in the video due to the light.
all the kenya trees I have have quit long stalks..

Very cool tank, makes me want to copy you :)

I have kenya tree (both in low and high light tanks) and they look drastically different! almost see through in the high light tank, and very tan/brown in the low light tank.

I agree, very cool tank. How big is that tank and what are the dimensions? Also what kind of lighting do you have? Thanks

I can take a picture tonight but it is very very simple:

- Red dragon return pump
- Aqua medic reef 500 Filtration system (you can google a picture)
- Heater
- Freshwater tank

.. thats it.. :)
