well, not to much to update, have a bit of a cyano issue, due to not enough sand being stirred up,and didnt do a water change in a while, but i did 1/3 of the tank, over the course of a week and a half. and sucked some of it off the sand. i got some snails for that, and also built a 5g refuge so one day i can get a mandarin,and a place to put my cheato, and my heater and temp probe. i also need some more live rock, but will be getting that soon. Added a feather duster, cleaner shrimp, blue tuxedo urchin, and sallylight foot crab( it only has one claw, which i saw once i got it into the tank) hopefully it will grow back but probably wont. things are slow, because im getting married, but she wants my tank to look great and is willing to let me spend some money to make it nice. and that way i wont want to just upgrade to a bigger tank. also noticed my first bubble algea, ever! gonna have to figure out how to get it out before it spreads without making it worse. any ideaS?and some boring pics too of my ghetto refuge, but hey it works.


i just built a quick 2x4 stand for it, and built a shelf on the back, and screwed the shelf into the 2x4 frame.





and here i just used a left over container and cut it out and siliconed it into place, it isnt totally sealed but its only there to stop cheato from coming out.


and a FTS of current aquascape. its a little more blue in real life, but im not using a good camera.



trying to get rid of the three corals on the bottom left, any takers, just really kinda dont want them at all in my tank, as im getting away from mushrooms.
