    No quite alright. Ive been trying to figure out how to do the lighting on a timer. Just for the fact the Actinics have to be removed from the tank.. So Ideas are greatly appreciated.


    lol That was a picture of the skeleton. Heres another picture. This was a day after acclimation.

    well to be more off topic... I use these timers from walmart ($6) that are rated for like 6 amps or something like that and are pretty heavy duty! power my 250watt halides with no problem ;)

    I knew it was the skeleton pic just never saw one with a skeleton like that. Only have seen the branching frogspawn. I have seen the hammers look like that. Where did you get it.

    Thanks! Im quite thrilled to get some live rock along with the deal, and a crap load of purple coraline algae. The rock is very odd shapped so I figured it was worth another colony in the tank. There are 2 Colonies of Zoos, 4 Zoo Frags, 2 acans, 3 clams, and an open brain in that tank. I love how its coming together.
