Coralgurl is on a distinguished road

Women....it's weird bec I don't have any coraline algae on the glass of the 55 gl at all but my lr is covered and very purple/red! The snails seem to keep things very clean and as much as the Mexican turbos are like bull dozers knocking things around, they do a great job. I really like the black background but also don't mind tanks I've seen with the back glass covered.

Are you working on the tank now?
