I know it sounds confusing at first. I had the hardest time figuring it out cause I'm not very good with computers. Hope that this helps.

I still don't know how to insert smiley faces and all the other icons like other people do.

Hope this helps.

I have a free account at photobucket and followed the diretions from canreef and photobucket.

JDigital I will try. It might be the pic's are to to big. Canon was set to 8 mega pixels when I took them.

just make sure you only have 1 "http://" in your link... and you should be fine... Photobucket automatically resizes pics if they are too big..

Thank you. I will give it a try.

Thank you JDigital. I when back and edit my post. It worked. Like I said learning curve. :biggrin:

Sunday Oct 13 2008.

Now I have figured on how to insert Photos. thanks again for all the help. On Oct 13 2008. I when to pick up my tank. My friend from work that was selling it helped me move it. First we removed all the live rock, inverts and fish into 20 gallon rubber maid containers with water. We added heaters and air lines. we drained all the water except 50% we saved. We left the live rock, invets and fish to be picked up later. we moved the tank with the sand in it. On the way home I picked up 2 more bag of sand from LFS. We set the tank on the stand. Then it was all up to me. I set the tank to operation running. I washed the new sand mixing it with the old. I save half bag for the sump. I put a heater, power head and skimmer into the display tank. Added the save water. At this point I cleaned the tank. Then ever hour add 5G of heated salt mixed ro water. As fast as the ro purifier made. 10pm the next day everything was running. Day late I picked up the live rock, inverts and fish. i put them in climatized them first of course. I most likely did alot of thing wrong, not bad for a guy that did not have a clue. It came out good. Now I can start posting photo and progress of my tank over the last 9 months. :biggrin:

Hear are some more pic's of progress and the months when on. I tend to leave blurred pic's because some time they are fun to make out what the are. I if there are no texts, please be free to add in what type of fish, inverts and coral you see. If there any info or interesting faxs. I am not being lazy, I want to make this thread fun for everyone that veiws it and learn as we go along. :biggrin:
So what do you see?

Nice chocolate chip star. Be careful though, they might eat some of your corals.

xtreme you are right. I learn the hard why with this one. My Chocolate Chip Starfish has the taste for coral and exspecailly mushroom. So if anyone has a shroom problem. Let me Know I have a Fs thread. :biggrin: Now he is in my fuge. I feed him every second day. I suggest research be for you be from LFS.
