Ryans Reef

[Alexander]

Hey Justin its a wild animal, you can't blame it. That being said, don't go buying triggerfish any time soon!

 

[mng777777]

You are right and truthfully I wouldnt ever hurt my salty friends. I actually was planning to buy a niger pretty soon. I have always really liked triggers!

 

[Alexander]

nigers are pretty awesome. relatively calm and reefsafe and not mean..... unless RyanG bought one. He would buy one that would bite his fingers off!

 

[d2mini]

Those new pics are awesome! Tank looks great! :)

So I went on a bit of a shopping spree today. Here are some photos, the white balance is messed up on a couple....

Left

Right

Hairy Acro Green with Purple tips(an ORA lineage frag I think)

Hairy Green Mille(with crappy white balance)

Six or Eight Heads of Dark Green Torch branching with white tips

Tableing Green Acro with Blue Tips(also random hitchhiker)

 

[RyanG]

I still have a little bit of nuisance algae but nothing like it was before...Its manageable now.

 

[U4BOYZ]

Wow..beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing!

 

[ccCapt]

Looks good. Definitely coming along with the algae problem.

Ryan, I love the hairy green acro! I'm glad the HA is getting beaten back.

I gotta devote some time and read this entire thread!

 

[RyanG]

Thanks Alex! Everything looks great today, I woke up to having a giant turbo snail when the table was it knocked the rock and coral over...freaking bulldozers!

 

[yote]

And thats why I dont have any turbo snails:mrgreen:

I'm with ya man, I hate snails. They're the most destructive thing in my tank.

 

[parrotchute]

Yeah, the knock more stuff over than my urchins, actually.
Are those toadstools in the sand there?

 

[dcantucson]

I want to get rid of my Turbos but I hate to just throw them out. They are a PITA.

 

[RyanG]

Yeah on the left side their is a toadstool on the right is where the new torch is...for now. I need to come up with a mounting system, it has really long stems.

 

[RyanG]

The turbos are a PITA but they are worth it to me...big time cleaners.

 

[AdeptMrSniffles]

I want to get rid of my Turbos but I hate to just throw them out. They are a PITA.

Is it wrong to purposely flip them over for crab food? Plus, at night I pull out my flashlight and there are literally HUNDREDS of small, baby ones over EVERYTHING! So I figure it's population control.

Ryan - can you place the torch, carefully, between some rock?

 

[Rcpilot]

Wow Ryan. The tank looks freaking awesome! :bowdown:

I used to hate turbos, but I started buying small ones since I have small tanks. Now I'm like Ryan - sort of a necessary evil that I'm willing to put up with. They do eat a lot.
