How about a Bare Bottom Photo Thread!


To celebrate our new forum, and let Sean get to know those of us in the BB community here, hows about some folks post some pictures of their tanks.

I'll start!

Here is the old 75



Here is the new 30



Note that I could have cooked my rock a bit more to eliminate some of the algae, though it isnt bad for 2 weeks worth of growth in a new tank.

Show us yours!

About 1 month after set up. I've since added some large colonies and updated my aquascaping a bit. If we get 12" of snow tomorrow I'll snap some new pics. No3 was about 10ppm in these shots, its not under 5ppm. I am really starting to see some nice color. I may even paint the back this weekend!

Not the best picture. 90 gallon acylic with 170lbs of live rock. drilled CLS pushinh 1800gph along
with. RR overflow turning 1200 gph. and I am wanting to do more flow. I have found that even with what I have done so far it is still lacking as far as the flow ,I wanted to get in the tank.

Weatherson-

I didn't know you kept a spotted mandarin in your tank! I have one in mine and was thinking he was gonna croke when I made the switch... Although he does eat frozen brine.
