Thanks! it's not touching anything now. I moved the stuff around it and I put the SPS back up in the rocks.

hahaha YEP! I don't think they knew they could have sold that for much more..... they would have even traded me for an ugly brown plate lol they have a set price of $60 for plates, regardless of color.

Me too! I'm so excited! I already picked out my lights =)

 

[nissan577]

you are lucky! you got any more pics of your amazing tank D?

 

[demartini]

Everything looks pretty much the same. My SPS grew a little bit, but that's it really. I don't have room for new corals.

 

[nissan577]

send some to me and ill love to make you room? asking are you interested in selling some stuff?
and another question how long does it take for your sps to grow like an inch or half?

 

[asharp13]

can you id this for me???? i want one!!!!
also, how do you get such great photos?? i want to start logging my tank which isnt much compared to yours haha but id like to start showing off what i have in a more professional fashion....any tips??/what kind of equipment are you using???

 

[demartini]

I'm just selling some non-rare zoas and blue cloves.
I'm not sure how long it takes SPS to grow an inch. Mine have been growing very slow.
asharp13, That's a coco worm.
I shoot pictures with a canon rebel XTi. My best tips are to use a tripod and turn off the pumps when you take the pictures.

 

[greenreefer]

What lens do you use?

 

[demartini]

stock lens 18-55mm

 

[nissan577]

thats not cool!!!!!!!!!!!!! can i buy you a ticket to come here to take me some pics of the tank! lol

 

[fanker]

so ur selling ur tank huh? saw it on cl. why would u sell it?

 

[zero26]

I hear ya on the financial issues! I wish I lived closer, sweet tank!

 

[demartini]

I've been wanting to upgrade, but at this point I can't afford to. I work for the City of San Mateo and they are going to be cutting back on a lot of departments and unfortunately mine is one of them, so my job's getting cut. My aunt said she would hire me as a receptionist early next year, so I need to save up for however many months I'm going to be out of job, as I still have bills to pay.
I'll be getting a 50 gallon next year..... After I pay off my car! I only have $6000 left lol

 

[nissan577]

it kills me to know that

 

[coral keeper]

Just curious, are you selling the tank as whole or are you parting out?
