Looks good, but i agree the blue light is hard to see the detail

Paddy looks to have grown quite a lot since I came and bought Bubbles from you. Nice work.

That's a gorgeous tank, love the driftwood, really nice! But I wouldn't have that blue light on all the time, seems like that would mess with the puffer's eyes (it messed with mine just watching the video). I'd be giving him some white light during the day and turning on the blue light at night. That's what I do. I have "moonlights" on some of my tanks and I put them on from say 8pm until maybe midnight.
