    Yeah is too bad....
    The Florida rock looks cool too If I hadn't found the Pukani I'd buy that. Looks a lot like mine.

    Ugh....sure hope your Evo arrives on time and does the trick.

    Can't wait to see your new Wrassies. I Googled them & they look cool, seem to have a bit of a range of color. Didn't read just looked for pics.

    Good Idea...is what I plan to do w/my 2...I've read how other ppl place theirs and in particular the bow fronts since the curved glass affects how the currents run. Some ppl have them aimed at each other with one aimed to just one side and below the other....someone else aimed theirs at the center of the bow....but since your Vortek can't really aim, putting them opposite of each other might do with the Evo aimed to the side and just below or above the Vortek.

    Just gotta play with it and see what works with your tank and rock work.

    I'm planning to bounce em off the bow should create lots of different currents, eddies and such.

    yea i think ill probably end up just sticking it by the heater which is in the opposite corner of the vortech and just aim it towards the bow as best as i can
