Hello,
I have never put up a post before so any advise will be welcomed.
I've bounced into this forum many times over the past two years and it has been great looking@ everybody's mods & pics, so please check out my pics and give me some feedback and I guess i'll get my feet will get wet.

dont be afraid to post your pics in your introduction thread.

abernaka · 02/28/2006, 07:55 AM

since 3/22/04.

TTTTThank you,
And by the way I was floating around last night and looked @ your tank, your tank is also beautiful, what size is that one-brand,ect? I am thinking of going bigger and was curious about yours, it looks like a small footprint like my available space demands.

Kogo,
I did see that when I look@ peoples pic's, it said photo bucket. However I am a weak computer user still and presently, just putting pic's in my user profile is difficult and time consuming-right now.

but, Thank's for that!

abernaka · 02/28/2006, 08:53 AM

photobucket is much easyer than using the galary.

just go to photobucket and sign up for a free account, and upload pictures from your hard drive.

once an image is in your gallary on photobucket you will see three tag lines under it. copy and paste the bottom one (starts with [IMG]) in your reply box on reef central, and your done.

The filtration system I used for the tank is a AquaFuge (small) with a Lee's Counter Current Skimmer. I wanted to build a fuge that functioned as a complete fitration system and this was the best I could come up with. The benefits for me was that I was using a wall mounted Aquaspacelight 250 DE MH, which spilled enough light across the fuge as well as the tank. In the fuge I have Chaeto, LR and LS. I place the skimmer int he first compartment and added a small microjet into the center compartment for some water movement.

You have a beautiful tank. It's a shame you waited so long to share it with us. How often do you have to trim back that yellow leather. The next time you trim it back, please let me buy a "hank" of it!

"hank" is North Carolina for chunk.

The big tank is a 54 Bow, the smaller unit is a 26 Bow, I'm working on my 24 Pod now. As far as the the Leather, i've been giving it to friends starting reefs up here in NYC and it's a smaller piece now, I'm breaking the 54 down in the next couple of months...will let you guys know when it happens.
