    I like it. It's mad at me because I took the other powerhead out, now it has to sit on the rock. It's really cool how it just lays down on any ledge when it wants to rest. My clowns just float when they are resting.

    I know one thing, this tank evaporates quicky. I have a line marked for how high the water should be in my return while the tank is on and another line for when the tank is off. About 1:00am, I filled the return to the line. I just checked it and it's already dropped about 3/4 of an inch to and inch. Does this sound about right? I may have to buy an ro/di unit insted of going and getting water from my LFS

    New video

    I put the rocks closer to the back, so I can put corals and a clam up front with room. I will be building a canopy when I get the money

    Hopefully I will be adding corals soon. Still deciding if I want an anemone in there.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    It looks great, I really like the scape. Evaporation sounds about right, especially as it gets warmer.

    Silly, silly fish.

    Thanks for the compliments. I added the new video, because it shows off the stand I built for it better
