Help me out TX Reef. Thanks!

[hefner413]

Thanks once again TX Reef. Well, here's my pics of everything so far. I'm not entirely sure how they all should look - if you don't mind - could you take a look at them? Also, Could you ID them for me? I'm including a couple pics of the tank with the castles removed - everything looks bare but 50 more lbs of LR will be in there soon! Overall, looking MUCH more like a reef now!
Well, here's the pics - thanks for your help, once again: (SORRY, they are a bit blurry, but hopefully you can make it out fine)

AND THE TANK PICS

The last pic you posted of the frags looks like it bleached out.
It should be yellow with purple tips. I can't tell if that is what it is from the picture.

 

[hefner413]

yeah, the purple tips haven't come out much. Any advice?
Also, when you get a chance, could you ID for me?
Thanks

The tallest frag is a Staghorn and once it recovers from shipping will be a powder blue color.
The smallest frag is a Green Slimer.
The frag with orange polyps is a Montipora Digita.
The ice blue colored frag and the rest I am not sure. I have never spent much time trying to I.D. acros. There are too many of them and so many look the same.
The digi looks like it bleached a little from shipping, but it will recover fast and it grows like a weed.
All the pieces I sent you are decent growers.
The ice blue colored acro is one of my favorites. I really love the color.

hey hef, is that an aqua clear 3000 powerhead in your tank?
read the little silver label on the power head I'm pretty sure it will say "to prevent risk of corrosion or deterioration of parts that may lead to electric shock use only with freash water" if it is indeedthe 3000, If its another model it may or may not have the same warning. could be dangerous to you and your corals/fish.

!!! That would be terrible! It's an aquaclear 4000. I just looked at it, and the silver label doesn't say anything about fresh water. Do you know about the 4000??!! I threw away the packaging, so I'm not sure. I've looked online, but no info yet. They're coming out if I can't find any reassurance. Thanks for the heads up.

whew, I just found some for sale online, and the ad shows the box - and it says "safe for fresh or saltwater". Do you think I'm safe, or have you heard otherwise?

Awesome! I can't wait until they are "unbleached".
"green slimer" - haha - that name fits!
Thanks again for everything. I just ordered 70 more lbs of LR - should mail out monday. Then once it's cured, they will have their new home.

 

[hefner413]

Hey Tex, you have any threads with some pics of your coral? I'd love to see what they'll look like when they grow up!

 

[tx reef]

I will post some pics later this week. I haven't posted pics of my individual corals in a while.
This is a full tank shot............

 

[hefner413]

That looks awesome! I look forward to some more pics up close.

I think your safe, the 3000 was clearly labled on the unit that it was for fresh only.
