Well we've been outbid...again. We aren't having much luck finding any new replacement properties so far. Every time I look at my Vlamingi tang I feel guilty knowing that our disappointing search is pushing back it getting the large home it deserves.
In the mean time I'm trying to source out more SPS, and clams. I am also actively looking at bringing in more rock to seed. The plan is to add about 10-15 more lbs in the display in the form of shelf pillars, and hopefully about 30lbs into the new sump. The sump is STILL sitting in our "entryway " (haha its so full of material its hard to enter), as we are still waiting on a 2" bulkhead. This is the second time I've been held up due to late or non-arriving plumbing parts. Alright so now onto the good things; - Lots of growth to be had in the SPS and the clams when my chemistry is in check - Its starting to cool down here so the chiller is running less, yay for smaller utility bills! - Fish are all happy, healthy and plump. I don't think I will be adding any more fish (save one that has already been decided on) until we set up our next system. I think the hierarchy is stable and good as it is, and I don't want to disrupt it. - The RKE head unit's enter button started working again spontaneously. We are still checking it regularly and keeping our lighting off of it. - There is no more cyano in the system

Hey Catherine, nice work on the tank. I can't wait until I get settled out here so that I can get a larger tank again. BTW, my house is still for sale in Calgary, I know its not what you are looking for but I thought I'd put it out there any way.

I hate not having any big tanks, so I know your pain.

We are stopping by on Tuesday. I've been working the Tattoo Festival all weekend on skates. I'm dying to come get my clam...this is probably the longest I've ever gone without buying something for my tank.
