Twinn's tank/s

Post by smtwinn » Fri Apr 19, 2013 12:05 am

Per Gerwin I should start a tank journey....and share my ups and downs, along with pictures. Hopefully you will advise and guide me through the ups and downs.

I started with a 29 gal biocube (which is no longer inhabited by any coral or fish). I cut the rim to give it a rimless look, added a radian, and an mp-10. Tank did phenomenal until my urge for a bigger tank came about.....Now I have a 150 gal with about 210 lbs of LR, I only use nutri seawater, mp-10, mp-40, dual radions, 36 watt coralife sterilizer, diablo skimmer, and tunze auto top off. Will try and get some pics up this weekend.

Next adventure will be a Nuvo 24 gal (white)

Post on photobucket with the thumbnails. It won't let pics from this generation. It wants pics from 1992 size.

Nice, I see you like tangs as much as I do. How long have you had the Bariene tang? Always wanted one but they get huge.

well within the last week I've tore my tank just about completely apart to get a couple tangs out. Which led to a rescaping of the tank...got rid of tangs now all my brains are back to being happy. picked up several new pieces this week also (3 brains to be exact)...Gerwin and Roger get all my money!!!

Bought one of your handy dandy frag racks yesterday, do they need heated to bend further? Also would you consider making one custom? Need thicker material wider and ability to hang deeper in the tank. Had to Velcro this one to get it to stay in place with the flow in the tank.
