Huh, I just noticed that no one saw the Cowboys/Eagles game.... cause the Cowboys WON!!!!!!!

Jack, were you at the game?..... I'm not asking to be mean, just curious if I missed you in Fort Worth!

Ahh, that was a good game.......

P.S. I have all my lr now, would love to post a pic to see what you all think of how I placed it; I hope it doesn't look like a 'pile of rubble'!

[dinor2]

Here are my latest pics, I'm very interested to hear what you think of the live rock placement....

Thanks!
Dana

The first pic has my blenny peeking from the middle-lower rocks!

Rock placement looks Good, But the bad news is you have Cyano! You need at least two powerheasds in there to get some flow in the dead spots where I see growth. What are your water Parameters? When was last water change? Remove the red slime (Cyano) with a turkey baster and increase the flow in this area. There are no corals so leave lighting off for a few days and do a water change with RO Water no Tap Water! I didn't see any powerheads do you have any? I do not recommend any red slime remover products.

I saw it and was surprised nobody broke me stones!

Lol, ya the game was pretty good, for us anyways! The Eagles won their last game though, right?

Ya, I've been trying to reduce my nitrates, they've been at 20ppm and I believe it MIGHT have to do with the fact that a. I just added 50lbs lr (that I cured before placing it in dt, but maybe there were things I missed) b. I have not been syphoning some water from my overflow during water changes where I also added some new rubble for a refugium of sorts and last, I didn't have anything digging in the sand and/or eating detrius.

So, today, I syphoned about 1 liter directly from the o verflow, not feeding anything for the time being but I will syphon the red slime as well.

And yes, there are two 1200mj powerheads plus the 900 in the overflow! I am so pleased you didn't see them! I am very confident in the waterflow being good, no dead spots and everything moves good, I believe it's all due to the high nitrates but I'll also leave the lights off today and see how it does as well.


Thanks!
Dana

I would like to see more pictures of this tank as well as the 600 gallon display thread. I love looking at big tanks, it is a great way to get ideas for your own tank.

Update.....

Sanjay is Selling his tank. I will put in the market place. Anyone in the Tri State area interested in this complete system can contact me.
