i gave my 'pearlberry' a scolding and mentioned how well yours was doing - I'm actually seeing it start to bud and colour up now! Might have been the fact that I did my very first water-change tonight (was running the original 'cycle' water until now).

And I never wanna read 'hot granny' again

Ha ha, good name as any!
No leathers in DT. LOTS of fish, though.
Hopefully third times the charm and they'll stay pastely-colored.

I run Bio-pellets, GFO, and carbon.
Someday when I get rich and famous, I'd like to try Prodi-Bio lines. Right now, I've already spent the 2012 budget....and Boxing Week is soon to be here...sigh.

hope the combination of frogfish poop and no REAL skimmer will make them be happy and grow well.........as long as the frogie just guuards them and doesnt decide to sit on them too much

Ya never know.....I have two 230g tanks, a 80g tank plumbed into a 90g sump and a 10g in my basement. Soon we'll be adding a 260g, 30g, a 100(ish)g sump which will put us around 1000g just in the basement. Not counting the 34g cube upstairs!
