What software are you using to make your edits?

Thanks for sharing!

Sorry Tony. I responded to this yesterday but must have hit Preview instead of Submit.

I fed, the wife filmed. Windows Movie Maker.

Talk about a quick meal! Beautiful tank Lance. What's that massive round coral at the back? It almost looked like it was pulsing.

Pipe Organ I got from Marie. She had it for years.

The tank turned one year old today and I can't say it was easy going. In fact, it has often been pretty damn frustrating. In comparison, the first year of the 90g was a piece of cake. This tank, however was one problem after another. First there was the horrible hair algae bout, then the Ich/Marine Velvet outbreak which led to quarantining all the fish for 8 weeks, followed by a period this past summer where I lost several SPS colonies. And finally a 3 month go with some sort of short, brown very ugly algae that was next to impossible to remove.
Thankfully, there has been some good points: I have a nice collection of fishes that all get along well; some of my LPS have grown like weeds; and then of course there was the very interesting boobies incident; the fugly brown algae is nearly gone and the SPS are growing again.
I sure hope year #2 is a lot easier.

Looks great, you have some very nice pieces in there... What hours are you typically not home?

Sneak in and help yourself. Only stipulation is that you take my wife's Beagle with you.

Not interested in a Beagle, is it OK if I steal that sterilizer you have? I hear it works real good and even has a new bulb.

Deal, but if I'm taking your wife's Beagle then I'm leaving my wife's cat behind.
