Gawie's Nano

id rather keep the room warm if possible. the warmer the room the less heat is lost by the tank, and less evaporation! cooler box is a bit of an eye-sore.
 
Thanks for all the input.
I hid the second heater and all is well.

Now the firefish are getting more and more bold and they even allowed me to take some better pics.

We try to encourage evaporation so that when we topping up with kalk,we are supplying the tank with calcium and alk aswell as stablizing the ph of the tank.
 
Got these yesterday. The pics are from last night after acclimatisation.

I'll take some more pics later. Busy charging the camera batteries.
 
Warr: Thanks. With my limited experience I think they are Ricordea. (Marked on the LFS shipping manifest as Ricordea sp)
The common green ones apparently, but damn they still look cool to me.
 
Hi My name is Gawie and I am addicted to Mushrooms

I have a serious problem. Whenever I go coral shopping I come home with mushrooms of some sort. I just cant seem to find anything else that appeals...

So let me share my addiction.

Starting off with the latest addition, Violet Spotted Mushroom.

Messing around with longer exposures and a flash under atnic lighting.

Now on to my favorite coral at the moment. Green Ricordea.

(Must be the influence of all these mushrooms because I swear I can see a face in the middle.)

These guys have been in the tank for a while:

And then some visitors, keeping them for a friend.

So anybody know of a support group? Shrooms Anonymous maybe?
