small equipment update.....I'm "guinea pigging" a new line of clamp on fans that RC started carrying..... made by aqua world......it a pretty slick little unit.....two computer style fans mounted in a decent looking housing....*said in a fake TV-mmercial announcer type voice*"and its adjustable"....its a little nosier than my ghetto style Wally-mart clip on fan that I was running(zip tied up so it cant fall in the sump!!), but it definitely puts out more air......It doesn't cool the tank better than the old fan, but it sure as heck looks better.....and it was cheap cheap.......Ive got it clipped on to one of the baffles in my sump ATM......

well......V2 is a year old......the tank(or the big tank I should say) seems to be responding well to my renewed interest in maintaining it.....I still have crazy amounts of algae in the small tank that I am trying to prune out.....still getting some diatoms in a few spots....Ive resorted to moving rocks that I can over into the big tank for a week or so to have the tangs and angels and blenny go to work on it.....but that really just a band aid solution......big water change and media swap this evening and I bump up the amount of rowa this time.......we'll see if that makes any kind of difference or not....


few pics

feather duster and tuxedo urchin





stupid urchin is in there to eat the algae, not wear it








have you ever noticed how much more curious your fish are of you when you look through the end of the tank?? .......or is it just me??.... the pics aren't the greatest but they illustrate my point







and lastly, some tunicates.....

Stop being so jealous. It was just one time and didn't mean anything, I swear.
