    I ordered one hundred lbs of cured live rock WITH free shipping for 195 dollars yesterday when i got home from work, I am probably going to hook up the skimmer when I do the rock.... I have read that sometimes the skimmers take a few days before they start to work, or it can be up until they have a bio load worth working for.... if that makes sense. Thats the only way i knew how to word it, but reguardless..... Im getting pretty excited. The guy at my LFS said he will order my two dwarf zebras for me
    Then i just need to pick out some of the clean up crews, and maybe do a few star fish

    try and get a male and female dwarf zebra. mating is not commond but not unheard of. its rasing the fry that is nearly impossible. im thinking of doing dwarfs in a 55 gal. still cant decide yet though. maybe two fuzzys or two zebras. or one of each. sorry, got into my own little world there for a second.... my bad

    I was thinking about doing three zebras, but i might just go with the two since theyre messy enough as it is.
    I think thats a cool idea though with yours, i am cycling a 55g right now for my clown fish tank i have, they need a bigger home so itll be cool to see yours when its done.
