Oh, scratch that then. Looks fabulous though!

Ok, I agree now...the Phoenix SE are too blue for my liking as well. Now i get to spend the next 6 months trying to decide what to replace them with.

I've finally got around to replacing the phoenix bulbs, Thanks Brett.







And here is a pic of a new clam I picked up from Progressive reef



and this is the tank the clam is in

Looking great Marie! That is one big urchin! He's really doing a number on your coralline, I can see thru the back glass!!!

Yeah, it's strange to see Marie's tank without 1/2" thick coralline.

Wow that guy is pretty thorough. Don't they stab into all your corals? Always wondered how those fit into a densely populated reef...

He actually gets around pretty good, I haven't ever seen any corals with spines sticking out of them.....my fox face on the other hand seems to run into him at least once a week
