Spanko's bio cube, what in Posiden's name is he up to now?

[slice]

Ok, so here is what we know:
1. Tank will go through a "redo", a "new plan". This implies something far removed from the previous reef setup.
2. The previous fish have been removed from the tank, presumably because some new creature(s) would not be compatible?
3. Coral has been fragged and removed from the tank, but it is unclear if ALL the coral was removed. Again, because of some compatibility issue?
4. This "new plan" is inspired by
a. something seen in a "southern state", presumably something in an aquarium...Atlanta perhaps?
b. something "witnessed", as opposed to something just seen. "Witnessed" as in seeing some event.
c. something the wife "fell in love with"
5. This "new plan" must fit in the existing tank
6. He mentioned not wanting to post a pic "of the scape", does this mean rockscape? Landscape?
Any other clues?
Instead of an aquarium, was it something in a terrarium? Is spanko going lizard on us?!? Tree frogs??
Jellyfish?

Thought so after looking back at the other pics, BUT as you are stating, in the other pics it is open more

 

[spanko]

Not really the new scape is much more open in the front. It was designed this way for a reason.

 

[meowzer]

Right, but in the 1st pic the "tree" was open more....LOL
How much longer do we have to wait to find out what you are doing

 

[spanko]

I see what you are talking about now. I thought you meant the scape for some reason, might be the couple of Killian's Reds I have had!
Things have settled quite well so I have ordered the new creatures to add here. They will be delivered tomorrow.
So you get any feeling for the area I am trying to emulate from the scape?

 

[meowzer]

CREATURES?????
pipes?
Seahorses?

 

[smartorl]

I don't think seahorse with the birdsnest.......pipes maybe.......
I know, panther grouper and a trio of tangs.

 

[meowzer]

Why do birdsnest sting?????????/

 

[wargasm]

Nice tank man! Are you running the JBJ Pro LED 89 watt system? How do you like it? I just got that set up and am cycling right now!

The new scape looks lovely.
The chalice has not gone anywhere, it is in the center at the back in between the two islands.
Okay, the wife and I spent a week in Fort Lauderdale, FL about a month ago. Got a chance to go down to Pennekamp State Park and go on a snorkel trip out to the protected reefs.
And with the critters coming a Knobby Sea Rod genus Eunicea will also be in the package.
Hmmmmmmmmmm....we we in the Caribbean, two islands with open space in front, wife fell in love with whatever it is, wonder what he has in mind????
