Great job Arnold! Your tank looks great, love the mature corals with great polyp extension.
Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! Goes to prove you don't always have to run all the best equipment to keep fish and coral happy. I remember when the "Fiji yellows" were easy to find. But, now you never see them for sale. Let me know if you ever frag it. I would love a piece for my tank. Great job on the "tank spotlight" this month. I really look forward to seeing all the new tanks every month.

I can try to frag, but they take a long time to attach to anything. you want a unmounted one?

Sorry for all the typos and misspellings. I was tired and in a rush last night. I just reread what I wrote.

It doesn’t matter, mounted or unmourned. Whatever is easiest for you.

You showing off this November? Or do we have to wait one more year for @sfsuphysics to actually get his tank wet?
We may even have @xcaret going by then too. I think he is pulling ahead of mike in the tortoise and tortoise race they've been having for a few years now...

 

[sfsuphysics]

Hey to be fair I've been building an entire downstairs area, all he's doing is putting a tank on a stand

 

[Coral2Coral]

Great tank! Love the movements!

@Apon you mentioned your tank is dirtier than most; what are your water parameters?

That’s too bad about your clam. Mine fell on its face in the sand bed when I was on vacation. I kept it’s shell too but I took it out of the tank.

 

[Flagg37]

Also, how do you run your tank without a heater?

I had attended only one tank tour in the past, among those people showing their systems, was Arnold with not only his amazing 120 but a beautiful Zero Edge aquarium from Ocean Treasures too; Was the ZE a clam tank? @Apon

Haven't tested in a long time but last time my phosphates were at like 60! The pumps and lights keep my tank warm enough. Its also pretty warm/stable in my condo all the time. Sometimes I need a fan on to cool it off

I still have that too, but it got overrun by xenia. Planning on redoing that one too.

Awesome tank, and great spotlight write-up! Thank you for sharing it

 

[Wlachnit]

I always like learning about everyone's back story. Thanks for sharing. Great looking tank. Any idea on nitrate levels?

 

[Apon]

I can bring some water to swap if anyone wants to test it. I don't even have test kits anymore.
