hey josh that looks awsome is the rock mostly smaller pieces stacked up or do you have some good size pieces in there as well? It looks very sweet can wait to see with coral

Got some goodies during the calgary trip

First up is a Flasher Wrasse...one of my favorite fish. Thanks Albert!


A little red open brain, been looking for a nice specimen for a long time


And the whole tank after a scraping...only got a very small part of the cleanup crew from the AquariaCanada order. J&L will be filling up the rest very shortly. From a different angle by request (harrasment is more like it)


Rusty...most of the peices are about fist size up to large canteloupe. I have a small boulder weighing around 20-25lbs that just wouldnt fit because of the clearance under the tank above, otherwise they're all relatively small pieces.

More pics coming tomorrow. Got a beautiful pair of mandarins in the 150 i couldnt get a good pic of tonight.

and i finally managed to find a nice little lunare wrasse, the fish that got me into SW to begin with. Pics of him to come tomorrow as well from the 72g pred tank.

Get that lunar wrasse out of their they arnt reef safe. Plus they get realy aggressive. A link to back me up here:

Nice tank though has alot of potential. I suggest a nice pair of White Stripe maroons with a green anemone to offset the colours.
