I may leave the old guy in there as long as he is good and doesn't pick on others. I had a guy from my reef club show me how to catch them. He puts a tiny hook in there on a fishing line and those damn thing's hit it every time. May just be how his is trained but it was pretty cool.

I will post some pics this weekend after we do the framing on the tank. I got all the wood stained over the weekend on the back side and just painted the wall tonight so we are ready to put the picture like frame around it probably thursday or friday night. Other then that you can't see much because I don't have any lights on, just rotating water at the moment. If I have to get anything out of this tank I will be wet up to my shoulders. To reach all the way to the bottom I have to take my shirt off and make sure I didn't just put deodorant on....

It was that wave maker that did it. Got the bug so I tied the wife up in the basement and started spending money. I had always told her ever since we met that my dream tank was one in the wall and I came across this tank for a killer price that if I passed it up I would probably not have one for about 20 more years. See what you done to me......

Well here is some pics of the finished wall. We got about 90% of the trim done. I have not figured out a way to post some good pics of flow because there is nothing in the tank but rock. I will try to get a air stone to create bubbles and see if that works, you know of any good ways Jason??
