    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Very nice, great scape.

    After a couple months the sps will really start to grow in.

    What type of fish, chromis?

    Looks very good, sounds like a very solid scape. I would use dry rock from here on out.

    Thats exactly what i did, i had alot of problems awhile back when it was previously set up, and i knew right away i never wanted to buy live rock out of an established tank again, the only thing i miss is all the cool stuff that comes with it, but i can always seed it if i wanted it really bad

    Your tank's looking nice, Shackman! :) Where did you find the JBJ water weld? My local Lowe's doesn't carry it? Weird, I know.
