Here's another shot I took recently of my growing acan garden

Aaarrrggg · 04/10/2011, 01:45 PM

Wowy wow! Fantastic!! Only 3 months in and everything looks so happy!

I'm definitely getting some Purigen and Chemipure Elite... if they're the secret to such crystal clear water then count me in!!

Really love the shallow look, how many gallons is that? I'd be tempted to add a little goby in there too, but I'm a sucker for gobies.

Thanks!! And yeah I think the canister filter does do wonders for water clarity. Not sure how much of a difference the chemipure and purigen make but I'm sure it helps. It's about 8.6 gallons too according to the site I got it from too. A goby would be a nice addition I'd just be a little worried about it jumping.

Another one of my favorites from awhile back...

teamschreiba · 04/21/2011, 07:07 PM

I got my order from vivid aquariums in this week

All the frags were great and the colors are amazing. I got 6 new SPS pieces to try and keep moving towards an SPS dominated tank. Here's one of them:

Got my vote, tough competition but still love the look of your tank

qwuintus · 04/22/2011, 11:40 AM

How many gallons? 12ish I'm guessing...

I like the geometric aquascape very much! I actually had the idea to make brick shaped rocks. I thought of having something extremely modern/artificial looking and even shaping the coral itself into geometric shapes.

Thanks! It's actually 8.6 gallons. I was skeptical with my scape at first too but I've grown to like it now. Good luck with yours, its sound like it'll look awesome but definitely a little tricky to setup.

Subscribed. This tank is very sexy and inspirational. I have my 58g sitting empty as I move and tbh I have been debating on getting a ADA tank and going much smaller. Seeing your tank almost seals the deal.

Now to convince the wife I need cash for new equipment.

Thanks I really appreciate it!

It really does have some pricey equipment associated with it though if you're doing all the goods. It definitely worth it though and I love my tank. Good luck and hopefully I'll see you with an ADA build thread soon !!

teamschreiba · 04/25/2011, 08:58 PM

Soooo I really wanted to be able to take some videos of the tank and felt like it was time to upgrade the DSLR so I went ahead and got the canon t3i Also got a macro lens with it instead of the kit lens so here's a couple shots with it...

New FTS

stanley_wk · 04/25/2011, 09:31 PM

nice tank!

ange062 · 04/25/2011, 09:36 PM

Wow, the white balance is so much different with a legit camera, doesn't even look like the same tank!

Yeah I mean I was using a Nikon D60 before but it didn't do too much to try and change the white balance. The new camera definitely does a lot more to adjust though. Some areas of the FTS are still blown out so it will take some getting used to in order to get the FTS dialed in to how I want it. So far I'm loving the camera and the lens though

ange062 · 04/25/2011, 10:12 PM

A macro is definitely the next lens on the list for my D90, been looking at the Tokina 100mm f2.8

Yeah I could see how a 100mm would be nice, you'll definitely enjoy it

teamschreiba · 05/06/2011, 10:17 AM

New shots with the new camera

Accidentally broke these guys off when cleaning the glass so I'm going to see if I can grow them out from this small.
