Herbie's 45g^3

well, tonight will tell. I shop vac'd and paper-toweled all of the water out from under the tank. (fingers crossed that it was all from my leaking bulkhead that I fixed. If it's wet again tonight, then it must be the MP10 that broke the seal, because the tank definitely passed the leak test before.
 
How about this?

Coralcompulsion 120w full spectrum. Cell
phone and LEDs don't mix well and I'm still ramping them and trying to decide the mix I like. I am really digging the colors I can get and the corals seem to love it.
 
Tank looks amazing Nate.. What's ur current stock list in the tank

fish wise I have 2 tiny ocellaris, my cherub, and my LMB. Yasha is still MIA and assumed dead (I can't make myself take down the empty NC28 because I keep thinking he might still be in there somewhere). The older clowns are loving their new frag tank/xenia nursery home. I am looking for 2-3 more fish to get a litle more movement. I might want 2 firefish and a pygmy wrasse, but I'm going to wait unil I am sure before I get anything.
 
nice looking fish list bro.. and sorry to hear about ur yasha.. hopefully he turns up and you can put him in ur tank.. You should get a pearly jawfish for ur tank.. aqua pros usually sell'em at a good price

how does the cherub like the bigger tank?
 
The cherub is in heaven. There are sooo many swim-throughs and tunnels in my rock work he keeps appearing all over the tank. He is also seriously confused by the tiny ocellaris because he used to hang out all the time with the larger ones and the female would attack him every now and then. It's so funny to see him try to play and they just run to their nem. When he isn't doing his swirly dance around them they all hang out together. The LMB loves the various ledges to perching, but I need to be sure to feed him lots of NORI since the tank is relatively sterile right now. He sits on the veggie clip whenever it is empty to make sure I know.

nice.. i seriously love your cherub.. its so tiny lol.. is that adult size already or not yet?
 
Looks good but you really need to clean that MP10.

i have to agree on walt on that one.. clean that sucker up bro.lol

Lol, it's actually covered with some nori that escaped the clip (LMB is messy eater) and a little chaeto that excaped my fuge. The sponge has only been on there for a few days and yes, it needs to be cleaned, but the LMP actually likes to eat the stuff off of it as well, so I am leaving it for him while the tank is still so new. No EAM for him to eat otherwise. I'll clean it up tonight and take some better shots so you guys don't worry :)
