I haven't paid much attention to the tank other than feeding and making sure the ATO has enough water in it (been woken up 2x now by the "low" alarm, why does it always go off at like 3am?!). My neglect of the tank is actually helping...well that and the phosban I am running again. The cyano is now only in a couple of patches and I'm pretty sure if I siphon it well it might disappear quicker. The green slimy crap is still hanging on, its a tenacious bugger and gives the tank a yellowy cast.
The regal tang is still going to town on the clams, he's even testing out my prized blue maxima and I am less than impressed. I can't believe how much food it takes to satisfy that fish. Its crazy. I've incorporated nori back into his diet (that was me being lazy and not feeding it) as well as 2x daily feedings of mysis (gee I wonder why I had cyano?). Poontang made me a plexiglass viewing box so I could take some overhead shots. Sadly I didn't really factor my lighting into photo taking. Even at its highest raised point it still fries the back of my head and well, leaning over the tank taking pics with an SLR trying to look in the viewer, um not the easiest, esp with 400 degrees cooking the back of your head. Here are some photos of the ones that turned out. Unfortunately the "best" corals are the highest up on the rock and didn't get photographed as I need a better lens with a shorter focal range.
