Excited!
 
We started cycling a 26 gallon Bow Front reef tank on Sunday with Live Rock, Sand and a piece of Shrimp.

Last evening we were sitting and watching the tiniest little Star Fish on the rocks, along with all sorts of algae and a little crawler bug of some sort! It is exciting for first timers and we look forward to watching the "herd" on our rocks until it is time to stock.

I hear you! I'm getting my tank soon, but I have a little pico vase that Is full of little buggers from the live rock. Simply amazing!

Lol, I remember sitting in front of my cycling tank for hours watching all the little creatures running around. It's still (8 months later) one of my past times :D

I remember a couple years ago watching my first mini stars, it was a very exciting time. I wish you the best of luck on your future purchases!!!
:biggrin:

Have fun.. now I am just wondering if I know you by the user name (archer)

I used to be very active with the Lloyd archery club. So if you have ever been up here for a shoot it is quite possible.

what do you have in mind for lighting? Have you looked into LEDs at all?

The big guy or one of the others... lol.. I am guessing the big guy, as you know me by name. Feel free the next time you are up this way to stop by & check my tank out.
