    But my big rock with all the coral on it! Or get the drilled 100. Have a wicked FO angelfish tank and your reef tank!

    I can't believe you thought I would snipe your tank! Shock, offended, and frankly hurt! lol. HPC also got in a shipment from ORA if you want a nice Red Planet frag they are $30. Don't buy my clam i'm getting it tomorrow or Sunday! (sold some old reef stuff)

    I saw those clams! good price! I didn't pull the trigger, not sure why. The tank is in Seattle =-p

    I moved my SPS to my upstairs tank with the boost MU lighting. The parametes must of been more different between the two then I thought because they started going downhill a little bit. They should be fine but It kind of pissed me off. I was getting super good polyp extension. Are you going to HPC tomorrow?

    I was gonna try. I have a self defense seminar to run in the morning then a craft show to check out with my wife. They also have some ora green digi and alot of cool ora blenny's. Now that I made $75 sell old stuff I need to spend in on that clam right?

    Well, my brother didn;t pick the tank up when he was supposed to and someone else purchased it... I do like the new overflow I bought from Alex yesterday though so I am not caring so much if the tank is drilled. I also bought a Vertex skimmer which should do the trick.

    Should I;

    Buy the mp40 anyways - they are bad ass and I could find a use

    Buy a drilled tank- Kind of thinking of waiting for the right craigslist ad

    maybe a controller?

    Wait for a cheap tank. Controllers are always an option. Flow is tough to do easily get the mp40
