Casanova1016 · 03-15-2008, 01:53 AM

I have been trying to sell some corals i didnt want anymore for some time now and was offered a trade instead. at first i was reluctant because it was a hell of a deal IMO.

I traded 6 corals:
1)chili coral
2)hairy mushrooms
3)purple blue dotted mushrooms
4)7 headed pinktipped frogspawn
5)colony of acans
6) 1in frag of an sps script

for

A 14g Oceanic biocube not too bad huh?

It made its home in the office

all I have done right now is added 20lbs of live sand and saltwater

Not bad at all !!! nice looking nano ,,, looking forward to be full stocked with rics and zoos .

Rock would be a good move

since our tanks thrive on it lol

Danggggg you got a cube for some corals? Woo that's tight. Hook it up with some custom chambers, new pumps, upgraded parts, lights, etc etc. Check out nano-tuners.com dude.

I would say it's fair trade. Good luck with the setup.

Nice trade Raul. Is this an addition or did you take down your other tank?

johnmaloney · 03-15-2008, 10:28 AM

**Deepwater** · 03-16-2008, 12:00 AM

very nice C ,,its going to be an awesome tank !

Casanova1016 · 03-16-2008, 12:31 AM

how many fish would you recommend i add to this bad boy?

psychographic · 03-16-2008, 09:10 AM

If that was my tank, I would either put no fish in it and concentrate on inverts, or if you have the time to devote to it, a pair of Seahorses.

I ran my 30 with no fish for over a year and concentrated on Shrimp, Crabs, Starfish and the like, it made people really look into the tank and they were amazed at wht they saw, with fish in the tank you seem to stand back to admire it and miss many of the coll little thing running around in the tank. Before I had fish, I probably spent more time looking at my tank through a magnifying glass than my eyes. (No old jokes about my eyes Deep!)

bschuerman · 03-16-2008, 04:54 PM

Seahorses would be cool.

autoponicz · 03-16-2008, 05:02 PM

good trade....seems worth it to be.....its looking pretty good with the rockwork already...
plus after you start adding rocks with corals...it will fill up nicely...
yea seahorses would be pretty cool.....
