Pics of my recovering 125! Warning. Lots of pics.

Well it has been a while since I posted pics and sadly the tank has gone through a lot of unfortunate changes. I had a large fish die off. Lost 5 bartletts anthias, Watanabei angel, kole tang, royal gramma, picasso clown and ocellaris, banggai cardinal. I then had a gha outbreak etc..The only fish left were my naso tang, 1 bartletts anthias, mystery wrasse, and scooter blenny. I also had an alk spike when my ph probe started reading incorrectly on my calcium reactor. Anyways I lsot a few frags and a bird nest that was big enough that I had to break it in order to fit it in a 5g bucket. Monti's all bleached and I lost 2 digitatas. Anyways I think I am on the road to recovery so I took some pics. Please excuse the tank(and quality of pics) as it looks pretty rough right now.Anyways, here are the pics...

If you can't tell I like taking pics. The pics were taken with one camera using two diff. lenses and a few diff. settings. Here is one last pic. This is what the tank looked like before all the issues.

 

look at you saying sorry the tank looks rough right now... it STILL looks good enough to make me jealous!

 

I agree, it doesn't look rough at all to me, nice pics!

 

Very nice pics man

 

thanks a lot! It's been crazy at times and gha is still annoying me (sonic scrubber ftw though) but I just need to keep maintenance up and keep an eye on things and I thing I can turn things around.

 

Tank looks good to me. Have a question for you, how do you keep your green star from taking over your tank. I have one and would love to get rid of it.

 

I am so jellious. Your tank is awsome. The corals are so beautiful...

 

Looks like a lot of pricey livestock. Very nice, I aspire to have such a nice collection some day. Congrats, and I hope things continue to improve.

Incidentally, are you running t5ho only? I would like to know about your lighting and tank dimensions.

 

You have an absolutely beautiful tank. Great aquascaping.

 

Thanks everyone!

fisherman- Every once and a while I hit the perimeter of them with aiptasia x or something similar and it keeps them back. If not i take the sonic scrubber to them and just peel them off the rocks.

ultimatewarrior-The lighting is a current sunpod with phoenix 14k's.Bulbs are 150w. I recently added 2 super actinic 6' vhos with an icecap 430 but something was up and they were tripping the gfi so they are not connected right now. All the pics were just with mh and thats all I have used since I set it up. The tank itself is an aga 125. 72"x18"x22"
