Gently modified Aquapod...

Thanks. The Ricordea are my favorite also.

So, one of my fans gave out and I need to replace it. Any thoughts on a good 60mm fan replacement. I was considering a pair of these.

or these...

I sure do like the way my tank is stocked right now. If only I could get the xenia to stay the right size, everything would be swell.

 

Waiting for stuff to get delivered around the holidays is torture!

 

Finally, the new fans arrived for my hood! I hooked them up this afternoon and did a minor light upgrade. Hope the corals like it.

The first picture is before the fan install. The second is after. Sorry about the blueness of the picture.

 

The new lighting seems to be doing well. Before with 64 watts of light, the temperature fluctuated from 77-78.5 with the house at 65 deg. Now with 80 watts, the temp is holding steady at 77 with the house at 70 deg. My wife is thrilled at the warmer house temperatures. I am wondering what will happen if I add another 40 watt bulb. Either way, everyone is loving the new fans.

Oh, and I bought a pair of buttons. I don't really need them, but for $7 I couldn't resist.

 

I have been messing with my camera's macro settings.

 

Very nice looking tank dude. Xenia looks awesome. Don't know how I missed this thread before but now that I'm seeing it, I have the urge to start a pico as well;D

 

Hey, thanks a bunch! Sorry I took so long to reply, but no one but me ever seems to post on here anymore.
