I'll do you one better and give you pictures when I get home in a few hours.

It came from Home Depot, and I probably have enough left over that you can just have it. Its like flimsy plastic chikenwire I guess.

New thread for the build on the big tank, just to separate it out a bit more, so voila, the Last Big Upgrade.

I'm so pleased with this fish. I STILL can't believe my luck in finding one after so many years of searching. It was definitely meant to be.

I have some entertaining photos of Matia, our smaller dog, trying to figure out what was in the acclimation bucket.

Great build thread. I am half way. Loved the build on the tank in the beginning. Am building a sump and learned a lot about siliconeing the glass. Thank you
Will try it out when I find the GE 1200

If you can't find GE 1200 you can also use GE I windows and doors without anti-fungicides I believe.

Anyways, a photos update.
The promised photos

Some new additions from the recent Calgary Wicked Frags order.







Some older favorites


This is like its own version of ponape birdsnest. It has a green body and purple tips, but it is considerably darker then the actual ponape birdsnest I just acquired.


This one is just taking off, there is new growth on it everytime I look into the tank

I have two really pretty new pieces of SPS, a colony and a frag. I'm trying to get photos up but Photobucket just doesn't want to make it happen. I also ordered in a lovely little pair of butterflies that should be arriving at the end of the month.

Fixed the Photobucket problems!

Photos of Thursday's new additions:
This one I've had before, and I adored it, so I found another to adopt.


This guy is a cute little frag and I think might turn into something really interesting.


Kevin wanted to hatch Brine Shirmp on Friday, so I let him. He added way too many eggs to the container... It was his project, so I let it be, and it doesn't seem to have turned out too bad overall. There is just way too many of them.
