Woohoo! Congrats on the new fish. Chevrons are such neat looking fish but so damned hard to find

well its been 5 weeks since the move and one good thing about moving this tank to a basement is, my temp hasnt been above 80 the entire summer.....and those of you in Cowtown will know that its been an unusually warm humid summer for these parts...... plus, my evaporation is WAY down so Im making way less water.....the tank is still a bit hairy but nowhere near as bad as it was three weeks ago......I added whole whack of snails(big arse tiger stripe turbos,and a mix of astrea and trochus) and a seahare to try and give the tangs a hand knocking this bloom back.....the freebie sps frags that I got from Wes are still sitting on the frag rack waiting for less hairy real estate to inhabit...... a couple have retained their color but the others have browned out....no doubt due to the elevated nitrates the tank is at....brown is ok.....they can come back from brown.....theres not really a heck of alot in the tank to take pics of, but heres a few shots for you anyway Greenmaster

the barber visited the tank



some zoanthid pics

I'm pretty sure Doug and Laurie should just meet up and get it on so they can get it out of their systems and this thread can get back on topic! Holy mackerel! Don't you guys both have SO's? Don't they keep up for you??

Actually Steve (my now ex-boyfriend) and I broke up last month in July and Doug and his ex-girlfriend broke up around February 2010.

FYI Doug and I have meet and we do enjoy each others company
