my 240 pictures and others

[snakeblitz33]

hello all,
Well, I guess I will go ahead and post some pictures of my tanks. I hate taking pictures.

 

[snakeblitz33]

Here's another one.

 

[snakeblitz33]

This is my most favorite fish in the world. Her name is Maria! I've had her for close to three years, and she knows who I am. Follows me around where ever I go.

 

[snakeblitz33]

Just to clarify who maria is, It's the yellow tang, not the clownfish. I hate the clownfish.

my canopy - 4x250 watt ushio bulbs with icecap ballasts. They're mounted on a single strip of 2x4 wood. I need supplimental VHO lighting for most of the day.

 

[crypt keeper]

do you own a business? I like the tank. Plenty of room for the fish to swim in.

 

[snakeblitz33]

yes, I own a business, however I AM NOT ADVERTISING. I just want to show pictures of my tanks. I REPEAT I am NOT advertising.

 

[crypt keeper]

ah crap. I wasnt trying to insinuate that you were. I apologize. I was just wondering cause the huge open sign in the backround of one picture. The reflection.
I asked in another thread. Is it easier to take care of large volume tanks vs say like the 55 I have cause my 90 had a leak in it and I wanted to kill the person I bought it from cause he patched it with a shotty temp patch job.

This was a nice little combo rock I bought.

This is a maxima clam that I have had for nearly 3 years. I grew it up since it was a baby!

I loved my oscarfish. So full of personality.

I love my green montipora cap. A powerhead fell on it one day and broke it to pieces when it was 20" wide. Now it's about 8 1/2 to 9 1/2" wide.

This is a 90 gallon aquarium that I used to have.

This is what it looked like before coral.

This is my first aquarium ever. It was a 20 gallon aquarium with crushed coral and a seaclone protein skimmer. Ah, those were the days. lol. I have grown up since then.

 

[snakeblitz33]

Aww, that's fine. I guess no one liked my pictures. You see, this is why I hate posting pictures of my stuff. grr.

 

[crimzy]

I would have responded prior but I sometimes gloss by threads. That being said, very nice tanks. That 90 gallon is INCREDIBLE!!!

 

[salt210]

def nice. my wife would kill me if I turned the 210 into a reef

 

[salt210]

snake I know that you didnt start this thread for this purpose but do you just do maintence? whenever I talk to someone who works in this industry thats all they do unless of course I walk into a lfs

 

[flsurfer]

nice tank with i had that size...

 

[niskyvaulter]

amazing looking tanks. that must be so great having a fish store. is it likde your dream job?

 

[snakeblitz33]

Yeah, I like my tanks. You don't have to have a big tank to make it look good. In the case of small tanks, all you have to do is buy really cool color morphs to build a color pallet. In small tanks, it's just a matter of deciding what coral should take up space in a piece of prime real estate.
PM's sent to salt, nisky, and others.

 

[nofish]

why do you hate the clownfish? i was laughing when i read that.

However you have a great tank. are you still running them all?

 

[snakeblitz33]

Everything except the 90 and the 20 are running now. I love my 240.
Everything gets better with time. I found another cool pic of some clams that I used to have... I'll post it soon.
