It's looking really good, Catherine. Love the selection of fish you've got in there!

P.S. I have the same problem with a pet growing out of my Mac:

Seems to be a mac related problem! Nice iMac though, I eye it every time I head into the store.

So I think I've solved my SPS death problems. I am about 95% sure that something important, possibly a bacteria, died off on my rocks in my move in November. Accidentally the rocks from the 28g long were added to the 180g along with the rocks that were cooking in the garbage can. We decided to just play it by ear and see what happened. We added two frags of SPS shortly thereafter, and they have been doing fantastic ever since.

Nice pics! Love that first fish shot.. What type is that? And what type of Tang is that? (sorry if I missed what they were in earlier posts) :lol:

Its a Blond Naso, or Naso elegans, Naso lituratus. This fish is also known as the ring leader and the biggest pig in the tank.

The Blonde Naso is on my want list also!

Any update on the sump?

Nothing more, still waiting on an evening to go pick up the glass.

We stopped by Red Coral and I picked up a bunch of sweet goodies;

They all enjoyed a nice dip in TMPCC, and are now starting a few days of lighting acclimation in our system.

Those are some nice pieces.
