Reminds me of the BBC Ocean Deep where theirs just separate colonies of life on those vents.
Amazing how much life is in your nano!
Thanks, but to me the feather dusters are pretty annoying, especially when they grow all over the sps.

its not really hard to get em good when the right buttons are pushed......more a matter of just being "steady".....

I know but Im just concerned that that box may burst.......maybe you need to stretch it out to say 30x30x24

Steady as she goes eh?

An upgrade would be nice, having the money to do it with would be even nicer *sigh*

Hey sweet looking tank Laurie! Gonna look great in 6 months when everything colors up and you have a growth explosion! The first year of a tank's life drives me nuts...hurry up and mature already!

thanks again Laurie for letting me put my sticks(frags) in your box for a while....

You should go and see it Taylor......its a very nice little box.....just saw it in person myself.....not sure if you will get the exclusive access that I got but.....

So I took a few pics of Lauries box(s) while I was there.....started off innocently enough .....just through the glass....... but then things got a little more serious and Laurie let me get wet and go wrist deep......it was a bit of a tight squeeze......wee box......two relatively large hands and a camera











and a pretty good shot of Lauries kitty

Yup. It's no wonder some beginners pack it in after 3 or 4 months, (one algae infestation after another!) It is especially tough on those with large tanks; dealing with algae in smaller tanks is a little easier. I have seen a few new tanks that got through the break-in fairly easily, but they are the exception.
