No worries babe, I kinda figured you'd want to put your flames stuff up, I've even thought of the perfect spot.......the crawl space j/k

Probably could find some room around the bar.

well the crawl space is better that the garage......your not worried that people would get the wrong(or right depending on your perspective) impression?....all that flames stuff around the tanks

so I know a few people from the shop that swear by the prodibio products....they are super happy with the results and the ease of dosing.....I thought I might give it a try.....I started today with he recommended doses of both the "BioOptim" and the "BioDigest".....so we will see if I can get my nutrients in check with this magic elixir..... I do have a complaint about it already.....how the heck do you get the product out of the vial with that tiny hole???.....I thought the dosing was supposed to be less time comsuming???.....I spent a few minutes trying to "ketchup bottle" shake the stuff out!.....

granulosa avec chromis





granulosa sans chromis








and some more stuff

If it's the double ended vial, snap both ends off it, then it just pours out.

Oh yeah! That is sweet! I gotta get me some of that. Love the contrast between the smooth tissue and the "white" polyps. LOL, I think I'd love it even if it was just the brown blob

duh.....I guess that makes sense now that you mention it.....thanks Sean.....I was trying to remember who the "users" of the prodibio products were....I had forgotten that your tank was one of the junkies

after what seems like forever the pieces of the puzzle are finally coming together......I went up to E-town this past w/e to see my Girly and help her with cube....and I got an early X-mas surprise.....Lauries had the stand for my tank done for me.....she knew I had been talking with Greg(Grizz) about doing the stand and contacted him and had him do the stand for me for X-mas.... heres a couple pics....one that Greg took at his shop after completion and a couple that Laurie took for me of it in its spot in her basement.....apparently Laurie and Greg had a bit of a time getting it into her house....there is a couple minor scuffs in the stand from the screen door, nothing a can of Krylon wont fix...... it is big, heavy and very well built......thanks Grizz....and thanks baby for the early prezzie.....so here she is in all her glory...all 84x30x30 of her....
