Exactly. Something to show my wife your rocks besides a pic

Tank is coming along great!
Love the look of the rockwork... taking the time to cut the rocks really paid off IMO. :biggrin:

A quick pic for now, more to come. http://img.tapatalk.com/464b85f3-cefa-51f4.jpg

the scape looks killer man!....are you seeding the marko with some live?

Madmak 04-24-2012 04:50 AM

Thanks and yes I am, just put 10 or 15 lbs of rubble I had around and 25 lbs of fresh premium rock in the refugium just now. I will move it up once I trust it:)

What's in the tank now is permanent and I hope to build some neat stuff off of it with LR, branch, and corals once I'm able.

Rock slides and falling frags have always been a big pet peeve of mine.

Things have come together quickly lately, here are some updated pics. I will do a video as promised but will wait for my Apex unit to arrive first.

Holy crap !!! You really put that together fast :biggrin:
It all looks wonderful
I guess I better get off the pot :mrgreen:

Coming from a 24G nano all my fish seem so small! And they are wandering around all confused, bumping in to things, asking for directions...

You made me laugh big time ... thanks :razz:

Can't wait 'till I show you all my crappy little build with fish in it

I love the shelf that you created, very creative way to put corals that need lots of light up high.
