Added BioPellets to the tank, noticed an immediate reduction in hair algae. I modded the TLF 550 reactor to work well with the pellets. Here's a video.

Time for some more pictures. I pulled a pesky tang out of the tank which lead to a re-do on the rockwork. I like it much better now.

Loving the Desjardin Sailfin Wayne!

Tank is looking great! And interesting to see the difference with and without optics!

I picked up a Kodak PlaySport ZX5 camera for $120 (best buy), this thing is water proof up to 10 feet and has an underwater compensation feature.

I wasn't happy with the rock at the center of the tank, Steve at Red Coral hooked me up with this piece!

Oh yeah! That's the piece de resistance. The rock work looked good before, now it looks killer!
