Have you tried laver? It's a seaweed that does not get chopped up, and is just dried in leaf like ribbons. Only takes a couple of minutes to rehydrate, then it looks like living seaweed blowing in the tank.

No I have never heard of it. I just buy Nori from the Asian market near my place. My tangs love the kind I buy. The Sailfin did eat it too but I think he is just getting used to the new tank.

Where can I get the stuff your talking about? I should try that.

I love photographing our little cat...he is such a playful, crazy little guy and always into something...

(Sorry guys, no new fish pictures)

Really liked this one He loves to kind of 'perch' himself up on this side table.





Fell asleep in a strange position...





He found the groceries




And just so I don't leave him out, the big cat...

Your cat is not 'LITTLE'.
He's bigger than my dog.

Ah yes, the George Nelson Marshmallow Sofa...circa 1956. But this one is a replica. I looked at the real thing but $4K-5K was out of my price range.

We actually have multicolored cushions for that thing--basically each circle can be replaced with a different color. In our last place, we had the whole thing black, white and red...kind of randomly 'patterned'.

It is actually a very comfy sofa, my fiance lays on it all the time infront of the fire. Although she is quite small and most people can't really lay on it properly.

The couch looks like a drum set.

I'm pretty sure I've passed out like that once or twice...I'd be checking the booze in the bar....

On a side note, I'm still in the air about zeo (I wish I could make up my mind) Eventually the 90 will be mainly SPS, but I do have some LPS in there (Acans, Frogspawn, Chalice etc) Zeo shouldn't effect them negatively would it???? What about the zoas???

MAYBE I need to get my rear end in gear and get the 50 gallon started....

I know I have passed out like that a few times...just wish I could say it were at home

Anyways...

ZEO...Hasn't had anything but a positive effect. Every single type of coral I keep (sps, LPS, softies) are looking better than before ZEO.

I was worried about the softies just dying off but so far, they look more colorful and happy than before.

I say go for it to anyone who is on the fence. The results in most peoples tanks are quite clear.
