I'm a big fan of the pillar on the left side, and your impulse buys! I love how this is coming together so nicely.

Thanks Catherine

Sometimes it's the impulse buys that bite you though!

I thought I would give an update on the tank although there isn't much to report.

I've done a pretty good job of leaving the tank alone and letting it do it's thing. The tank seems to be going through the same odd cycle over and over again. I get diatoms they fade, I get them again, they fade ect. I'm starting to battle a bit of H/A but so far it's managable. I haven't see much in the way of coraline growth yet. But then again I haven't been too concerned with the Calc and Alk levels so far as I don't have much in the way of coral. I did throw in a few pounds of live rock to seed all the dead rock back when I started up the tank but I'm thinking the rock I bought may have been pretty void of life, I haven't seen one pod in the tank so I might have to find another nice peice to throw in there.

I still only have the four impulse buy corals. Two are doing great the other two are brown.. lol the only fish I have in the tank are the chromis I started with.

It's funny you should ask that, I have to send the head unit in to be looked at. It went from nice and bright to dim and then to black.

Other then the hiccup with the display I have to say I've been very happy. It does exactly what it's supposed to do without fail, I haven't had one instance where things didn't happen as expected. I haven't had to touch it in a few months.

However there are some things I would change about it if I could. I would match the web interface to the head unit, they differ in how they look and function. For instance, as mentiond I'm having trouble with my display and had to try and adjust the brightness settings via the dispaly, you can't access these menus's from the web interface. I would like to reset the unit back to factory setting to see if that had an affect on display, I can't do that via the web interface, It has to be done on the display unit ( as far as I'm aware )

I wonder if this is an isolated incident or if other users are experiencing this as well.

As far as I can tell it's an isolated incident, I searched for others with the same problem. I wasn't able to find any.
