Thanks Scott. I will try a couple sps...soon...
Having abit of a cyano issue and still wanting to add another K4 for more flow so perhaps after that I'll throw in an easy sps or something and see how it goes!
I modded 2 of my Koralia 3's to increase the output some. I think it helped but am still needing more.
I definately have alot of space on top to fill, don't I?

Carmen,

I have an extra Koralia powerhead, I think it is a 5. It is rather big though.

Girly for the Girly!

Ya sort of a feminine kick to the reef tank experience!

(How big are the K5's? Maybe that would be perfect? I'll look into them ok)

Looks great Carmen, like the aquascaping. Do you want to come do mine in the new tank when it is ready, lol. It's only 18" deep & 22" wide so you should be able to reach all of it without a ladder,lol. Oh ya I did tell you it was 8' long.

Well that sorta sounds fun! I would barely even have to get wet! Not like this one! 8' would be so neat to aquascape....so much room!!

Ya it will be cool, have to figure out how i am going to do it. Need to figure out if I am going to use pcv pipe or acyrlic rod's to keep the rock where I want it. How did you do your's? Is it just stacked?

I see you have a flame angel, am I right. I would like to have one, is there any thing I should know about them? Are they reef safe and compatable with the fish i already have?
