    I have not posted for a while.

    I started this 10 gallon reef July 2005. This is what it looks like now. Lil'B, my yellowtailed blue damsel has been the only fish in it, and he has been in it from day one.

    Once stabilized (about 8 months), I have had no problems keeping the coral thriving. I just returned from a 2 week vacation, leaving the topping off and feeding to the neighboor's kid - no deaths, no decline, no problems!

    By the way, the occupants listed in my signature are out of date (have many more now!)

    Awsome Looking tank! Just beware of the calerpa...I think that is what it is...eh the macro algae. Anyways, that stuff was the end of my 12 gal. One day I came home and it was reproducing...ie ammonia spike! I am not sure if your stuff is the same, but you might want to check it out.

    Actually the caulerpa is the big bunch I planted and keep trimmed. The hitchiker is halimeda. It has not been a problem.
