Looks awesome Christy. Glad you're happy.

Must be nice to be rid of all that gross algae!

I'll have frags for you when you're out this way.

See you around.

Christy,

THAT LOOKS AWESOME!!! What a difference. I'd love to come by and see in person sometime soon. The new rock layout really works.

For your BB did you put eggcrate under the rock or place it right on the glass?

Hey thanks for all the frag offers guys! You rock!!

Gerald, you're welcome to pop by anytime (heck anyone is, I'm so happy to show off the tank now ). The rock is just sitting on the bottom. I didn't want anything blocking the flow and accumulating crap underneath the rock. I think that is key to the success of the BB method, the ability to export all the detritus you can via siphon hose. So far I have a little pile accumulating near the finger leather on the left but most of that is errant sand I missed sucking out with the shop vac.

Ken, Nori is quite the showy fish, she certainly adds color to the tank. I was going to ask her if you wanted her back but she just looks too darned pretty in there

Christy

Looks much better, no more Blogs! Did you get an amonia spike after setting the tank up?
