GlennF's 1500Liter DSR mixed tank (250x80x60wh)

Hey. Bit late. How is the aggression with your lyretails?

Are they even aggressive?

They are just fine when you feed them enough.
Just enough not to spoil your water quality

Ok there is a purple and yellow tang. But what is the other yellow fish?

That's acanthurus olivaceus

 

[JG Beeslaar]

Ok thankyou

This is the frag700reef

There is some crazy growth of the green acropora formosa.
I can't keep up with prunning. Every time i cut 1 head i get 2-3 in return.

It is so nice

The panoramareef is on!

There is no way back!
The glass arrived today, so we have to pull through with this project from now on.
I yet have to detemine whether is will glue it as one single tank or as 3 part segmented tank for redundancy.

The old DSR1200reef is emptied, cleaned, re-sealed and given a new life. It will be renamed the Treef1200.
In the end the DSR1200reef did 17years without waterchanges. The content (water/lifestock moved to the panoramareef.

I am still surprised that rearranging a tank gives such a great boast of inspiration.

December 15, 2021. #Treef1200
Soft corals do not always have to be brown.
It is simple but 100% satisfying to work on. In the meantime, experimenting with new LED strips, while waiting for the new JMB LEDs to arrive.

It took a while, but today I finally found the inspiration to finish the stand of the Treef1200.
It has been there since December '21. With the nice weather, it is now nice to work in the garden.

Let the sealant harden, remove the clamps and hang the doors, then we are happy again.....

So ... the clamps have been removed and the doors have been hung up. I like it this way. Practical and no loose panels that get in the way.

If I watch my tank for 2.5 minutes, all the stress just flows away.

The first pruning is a fact.
The green and red monti plates had completely taken over the left side. I couldn't reach anything anymore and changing the PF became a real hassle. It also became a challenge to ensure a good flow.

Fascinating! The recovery proces of corals.
These acropora formosa (green bali slimer, green staghorn) were put through a stress test which make it expelled some/all zooxanthelle.

Amazing!

 

[glennf]

These corals recovered completely and are now in full growth.

This was the starting point:

One of the classic pastel colored corals.

Some hate them because:

- They can overtake the tank.

- or they can't keep the colors bright pink.

- or they keep dying on them

- or they are "too common"


I love them because they are easy and just beautifull!
