Looking good is there a wide range of plants you can keep in a brackish tank?

Re: Finally home...kinda
nothing that I know of will grow in the high-end brackish that the GSP takes, aside from the mangrove tree that I have planted. it is coming out when the sand goes in tonight so that I can get me some dead rock and turn this into a FOWLR tank, or maybe try a few leathers and see what the puffs do with them..

Re: Finally home...kinda
marcorocks has great dry rock. I just bought a 50lb box. Price was like 110 shipped, everything was packaged very well and the rock was great. The pieces they gave me were so big that I had to use a screwdriver and hammer to break some of them into smaller chunks.

So I finally got the sand in around 1am and let it clear for the night. Here is what it looks like now.

Looks like some brown button polyps. I'm sure you will find more.
