my buddy has a 55 gal in south austin he will get rid of. the center brace is cracked/broken. im sure he will take $20 for it. just gotta fix the plastic center brace. it does hold water and is in brand new condition minus the brace.. Let me know and ill give you his info...

im gonna try and maybe do the garlic thing? ill have to look at the package and see what all it has in it already

UPDATE.... The bicolor angelfish that was in the filthy tank, has gone to fishy heaven. I guess the stress of the tank swap was to much on the little guy. The tang is holding strong though, eats seaweed and mysis everychance it gets. So hopefully he will make it through.

The pic with the liverock in it, is my already setup 55 gal. Just used it to house the two fish in and give em happy new home till I get the new one set back up. Just in case there's any confusion

The tang is in my 55 gal for now till I get the lr cleaned up. The tank i bought is hangin in the garage for the time being.

picked it! this is what i had to work with....

By collynhartman at 2010-08-17 well after many hours of cleanin and scraping, this is what we got for $100 By collynhartman at 2010-08-17 By collynhartman at 2010-08-17 By collynhartman at 2010-08-17 And what about the fish you ask. tang is doing great, the bicolor angel is still laying around hopefully destressin... By collynhartman at 2010-08-17 By collynhartman at 2010-08-17 So what yall think of the buy?

no protruding scales, seems to have "dust" looking stuff on him. and lower belly bloated. By collynhartman at 2010-08-16

If the coraline has the hair algae on it, would it be unwise to try and use it to seed my 55 gal? And would it (coraline) "die" if I drain all the water out, take it home and then scrape it?

I'm gonna stop by RCA and see if they have an acrylic scraper

question, the one on the right, in the past few days has started looking bloated. i guess thats the best way to describe it. any clue why he would be bloating? is that a sign of being sick or on his death bed?

went and looked at it today. My gf found it on cl last night. 60 (ish) gallon, rimless, cornerless acrylic tank. Has a cpr backpak on it, also a canister filter (ill prolly just clean up and sell it). It has a blue tang and a bi color angel in it. The viewing area is covered in coraline, and looks like some hair algae. from what i saw the lr looks to be algae infested. So the tank need super cleaning. mh lighting with two mh bulbs and two actinic t5's. Plus a bunch of extra stuff in a box she said. All for $100. yup. tank needs a gooooooood cleaning, but ill just put the fish in my 55 until i can get this puppy up and runnin. im stoked. im gonna post pics of the liverock when i get it all home to see what yall think of what i should do with it, just scrub it off or do the whole bleaching and drying and start fresh. Pics wil lbe up tommorow around noon. Takin it down and moving it at 10 tommorow.

anyone know the one on the right?

aaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaazing on the stand! nice work!

i have a 20l i am gonna make into a sump, im looking for some pieces of acrylic or glass to make the baffles. ive looked at regal plastics, but they have a minimum buy and idk if i need that much. and lowes is kinda pricy on theres. wondering if anyone had any laying around they want to get rid of or sell cheap. Thanks

Pickin one up from a CL ad tommorow. Thanks guys

All I really have is gsp and a Kenya tree. So when the mass destruction starts, it won't be a super expensive learning experience.

Soooo far, no nipping

Ive had these damsels for a few months now and still dunno what type they are. lol

Heres our new fish we got saturday.... super excited, had to share. not the best pics but love em. the angel is in a diferent tank thank the other two little guys. got the bicolor from RCA friday night, then saturday got a clown trigger, a yellow tang, and a starry blenny from Aquadome. No pics of the blenny yet.
