Looks good. My first tank was a 70g FOWLR... yours looks way better.

So lately i have been thinking that my 3 hawaiin flame wrasse 1M 2F) dont fit the pans for my new tank..... thinking i would rather go with more smaller fish....mostley because i think the male would like a longer leash (bigger tank)....if you dont have more than 150 Gallons dont bother asking........
i am not going to post a price but will take offers.... i have a number i am looking for (cheaper than some websites retail) and if this number doesnt come to me than i will hang onto them...

pains me to see them go but i think jack, terri and chrissy could use a bigger place...

Please dont respond here if interested just shoot me a pm..

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH the joy of new tanks. just spent 2 hours tryiing to get the very small valonia bubbles out of my tank that apparently hitched on some frags from my other tank.... LOVE IT... ALso removed a chunk of live rock as i didnt like the stuff it had growing on it... some red hairy looking algae that was just starting to take over that rock... it also had some small wierd looking things ( Hydroids?) that looked like they could grow to plague proportions.

And thus i plug away... getting good growth on my sps tho so thats a plus..

I noticed that nobody else is responding... but we are watching... I'm about to setup and am not looking forward to all the pains that come with a fresh setup but it's all good. Continue to plug along... we are still watching.
