Some updates!

Got some new macros from reef cleaners and some GSP from Aqua SD.











Starting to fill in so full tank shots coming soon

[ajn81]

Okay Here is the current Full Tank Shot. Slowly filling in. As you can see I prefer to keep a minimalist aquascape. Suggestions welcome .



And here are some more closeups just for fun

does your in wall air conditioner produce a lot of condensation? I actually installed my ac very similar to the way you have yours set up, but after about an hour of it running, i have to put a large bucket below it as it starts to drip very heavily

Great job! I'm a big fan of minamalist style of scaping.

Interesting....no I have not encountered this issue. Been running the AC daily for about a month now and have not noticed any condensation dripping out. The model I have is Frigidare FRA054XT7 5000 BTU mini window AC.

I do have to keep my garage door open more often, or it gets to be extremely hot in there because of the AC pumping the hot Air out of the fish room into the garage.

Corbin Jay was born this Saturday at 5:51am! He is settling in at home now and beginning to learn the nuances of reefkeeping :



Trying to decide what his first words will be... anemone? upgrade? water change? damn aiptasia? goniopora? gorganian?

What do you all think?
