    Haha !! Well since rushing a new system is the last thing I want, so in honor of your beautiful new build, I will put my debit card back in my wallet and walk away from that frag rock !! ;)

    Haha ! Honestly, if the Fox Face has been fine for over a week (and he looked super healthy in the video) you will be fine with the frag !!

    Plus there is great verity in that piece!! You lucky dog !!

    What type of light / flow is running on the system? (Sorry, I promise I will make a point of remembering all this lol )

    No problem at all!... I have the worst memory every...

    And yup, Henry seems happy, a bit skiddish and shy at times, but seems to be eating well and swims freely when he thinks no one is watching...

    Lighting is a Solar Xtreme 48" 4 bulb fixture w/2 10ks and 2 actinics...

    Flow for now I have 2 Koralia 750/850s and I am not sure what my return is... Plus a PH2500 (atman) pump powering my Protein skimmer rated for 150 gallons (SCaquariums SCA-303)

    Florida just by the look of the picture...

    The easiest way to tell the difference is usually price lol ;) yumas cost top dollar, whole Ricordias tend to be reasonably priced.

    Yuma's also tend to be found in a wider variety of color

    What do you think of that light? Deep Blue makes them, does it have LED moonlights and a timer!?

    Honestly I love the light so far... It does have LED moonlights as well as a built in timer (which for me is what wins me over)

    ... I got the lights with the tank / sump as a package deal... so basically 72G bowfront + 15G sump + Solar Xtreme lights + a bunch of other things all for about $300 from someone off craigslist... Not to mention it was all delivered by the seller and took NO effort on my part.
