    Nice. Is the box in the back right of the tank, for a wave box, or is it the OF box for a standpipe?

    Yes, an achilles tang will be in your stocking plans. :)

    The school of anthias would be awesome.

    I got my skimmer:)

    i am having a problem with the skimmer not creating small bubble:( I think it has to do with me testing it in fresh water and i has to break in.

    You're correct a skimmer needs to be in saltwater to operate correctly. Freshwater wont work.

    I definitely made that mistake before. Almost took it back until a friend says it wont work like that. Although i was cruising online and recently seen a freshwater skimmer. its double the price of a regular skimmer.
