Added a pair of Tunze 6080 to my tank (thanks Steve-Stircrazy) I think they are great, and a HUGE change in polyp extension...but WOW do I regret having a sandbed...never thought I would say that.....it is a PITA! UGH, now to get it so that the flow is good, and the sand stays put! Am still considering adding the Wavebox...still waiting to try it out!

Added some new corals at the frag trade in Nanaimo...got there late, of course, and missed some really good stuff...but I also got some REALLY good stuff! Thanks Marie, Christy, and a few others...some of the pictured frags; Green Cap, Teensy Acro, Bali Green Slimer are from Bill (cprowler) and yes, I know the Slimer is facing the wrong way but is really heavy and I can't find a good epoxy for it to stick where I want it...suggestions are welcomed!!

All softies/LPS except 1 frogspawn, 1 donut, and 1 Fox coral are gone! Gone I say!! YaY! the last 3 are...well...staying for now!

Tri color Acro


Pink Table


Pink Birdsnest


Bali Green Slimer


Green Cap


Blue Stag....came to me broken so now instead of 1 I have 2!! AND I think it is showing growth already....(could be that I stare at the tank WAY too much and am imagining it!



Teensy Acro frag...and I mean teensy!

Pink Mille arrived "free shipping" from Hidden Reef yesterday and is gorgeous! Pics will come in the next day or so...

Blue Spot Jawfish and McCosker's Flasher Wrasse arrived today from J&L...Jawfish is settling in....Wrasse ... in the sand! Will be out in the next day or so....will take pics of them too!

I think I gotta stop splurging on the tank as we bought a new truck today (2007 Dodge Durango.....) but I know that just won't happen! I think it will just "slow down" a bit!!

Thanks guys, that really means alot! I am (as we speak) hooking up the "borrowed" Tunze Wavebox that GuySmiley lent me (yes, lent me to try it out!!!!!) so I can see what kind of flow I get and if my tank being only 5 feet can handle it! AND then I am heading to OA and Hidden Reef etc etc on the 28/29th to pick up frags! I am actually finally suceeding at keeping SPS (easy ones but finally!) I have many white skeletons from previous attempts with other tanks
