Pics were taken by my 14 yr old son with a Kodak Easy Share and in a hurry. Not the best of pictures, but here goes:

^^^^^^ --- No real aquascaping yet as I need to add some large pieces of LR. The difference between a 55g crowded with LR compared to how that LR looks in a 90g. Guess I'll be needing a lot more.

^^^^^^ --- Side View. The end of my tank is against the wall so I can have a 3-sided, walk-around view.

A few close-ups, with thanks to my son, D.J.:

^^^^^^ -- Bi-colored blenny. Lives in the same hole in the same rock as he did in the 55g. All that's changed for him is the view.

^^^^^^ --- Rock anemone. Seems to have grown during the day. But I know that's just an optical illusion, right?

^^^^^^ --- Frogspawn on a dark gray sandbed. I like the effect.

^^^^^^ --- Small yellow tang I got from Saltwater City. Not as small as he was when I got him after feasting on hair algae in the 55g for a month.


It's a start, but got a lot to do yet. Just wanted something here to remind myself of why I'm soooooooo danged tired today. This is an exhausting hobby at times!!!!

Sheesh would you hurry up and put doors on that stand already???

Sheesh gonna take you as long as BigD!

I'll get right on it... where's that bullwhip we used to keep in the closet?

Someone I know spent waaaaaay too much time watching the NFL draft this weekend.

But... ummm... thanks for making dinner.

:)

Will you two stop it :yes:

Nice tank and glad to see the anemone still happy.

Linda, looks great!

Is that viewable from both sides?

looks great!! are you using a protein skimmer?

Linda - your tank is going along very nicely and your son did a marvelous job at taking pictures. I'd put in a little more LR but not much but not too much - kind of looks good with open water.

Now them doors the other thing....just tell Loren W that if he cooks all the gourmet meals for the two weeks straight, you'll have time to get the doors made, sanded, stained, varnished, and hung in place.

what settings do you have the camera? i have an easy share and my pics don't come out that good. do you have the flash on?

I love the Blenny. Cool fish.

I'm likin' the clown! What kind is he?

Sorry ~ I've been away from the computer much of the night...

Linda, looks great!

Is that viewable from both sides?

Thanks! It's actually viewable from 3 sides. I didn't realize how much more interesting this makes it to watch the tank. Nothing can hide from me!! If there's anyway anyone can set up a tank in a peninsula position, I'd certainly go for it. Dakota told me I'd love it this way, and he was right

looks great!! are you using a protein skimmer?

I have a MR-1 (My Reef Creations) which I'm told is a very good skimmer, but it's not completely ready to turn on yet. Loren got it all plumbed in this evening, but we discovered a small leak. Bought this used off of Ebay, and the skimmer is in like-new condition except for that.

Well, that's the problem: Loren DOES cook great meals. I've gained a gazillion pounds since he moved to Atlanta.

Yes, I'll be adding some more live rock, but gradually, as I find really unique pieces that I like. I like a lot of water column, but I think the rock needs to be much higher.

what settings do you have the camera? i have an easy share and my pics don't come out that good. do you have the flash on?

This I don't know. Someone told me to post pictures so I yelled downstairs and I asked my son to go snap a few. He's still experimenting with the camera and most of the pics he took were blurry. Every now and then, he'll get a pretty good shot, but mostly it's luck.

I love the Blenny. Cool fish.

I love Jack Blenny. One of my favorite swimmers. Someone once told me this fish looks like Homer Simpson.

I'm likin' the clown! What kind is he?

These clowns recently came from Lee (glxtrix). I believe he called them occelaris. He can tell you more about what kind they are and their history. They're still new to me. Although they hang out together, they seem to be about the same size, so I'm wondering if I have two females that just happen to get along.

Wow it looks fantastic. I'm finally getting around to looking at this particular forum. Very nice. It's well balanced and squeaky clean.

Keep up the good work!

The person that built the cabinet has mad skills too!

Looks great!! Great Pictures!!

really nice linda...hey what size return pump are you using?
