No.......he always tells me that he'll bring stuff in for me but never does.
I did go out on a limb and i'm trying another powder brown tang. He's just a little guy about 2" long and looks very healthy so....fingers crossed


They did bring in alot of fish this time, there was a powder blue, copper band butterfly, some mandarins, 2 lion fish, porcupine puffer and a hole bunch more.
If I was doing a FOWLR I would have been tempted to spend alot of money.....lol

That is one very well built stand. That tank isn't going anywhere.

Do be careful with water left sitting on the MDF it has a tendency to expand with moisture, however it does paint up nice.

That came out very nice, I would be inclined to keep the matte finish look.
