The reef is continuing on with it's life...main green star polyp is big time climbing up the glass...hmm...red hair algae took over[which I will be attempting to tame it], & the cheato has doubled in size...

The GSP frag is also doing well:

But ... this will soon be tore down and moved...soo...dreading that... :shock:

That sucks to have to break it all down.

On a positive note, I am mixing my sw and rinsing my substrate tomorrow to start my 20g.

Yeah reaper, it's the 6500k light spectrum that makes everything so green, I think... :P Thanks, tho...

On an even worse note...when I move it...it's going in my 20gH[because that's like the *MOST*[ex. 6" more isn't possible] space me & my friend will have right away[aka his lazy buttocks needs to start cleaning...lol]]...*BLAH*...I am getting kinda sick of aquariums...lol

Xray, glad to hear you're getting that going, actually...that is good news! :)

Inverts...green star polyps, bristleworms, feather duster worms, a peanut worm[blah looking but very interesting...lol], a few dwarf cerith snail babies[will get thrown in the 20gH later], copepods & I think that's about it[plus cheatomorpha macroalgae not pictured there]...

I'm probably gonna get a sexy shrimp soon, too...

I'm actually having more fun looking at it then my 20gH I spent 3 hours on[mostly trying to get the LR good enough to leave it alone]...lol I'm so weird...

^^ Someone who understands! lol

So here's my halfway decent picture from the 20gH...
Image

Both the firefish and clownfish are doing good...I want to add to this tank, but anything I get will probably be quarantined and another tank running isn't my idea of fun right now...lol

Anyways when I was setting up the tank...I took this pic with my phone and just forgot to post it...

ROFLMAO!!!

Seriously, I came >< *THAT* close to smashing the tank when the structure collapsed after I got it perfect the first time...lol I don't think people realize how annoying it can be to work with live rock[especially when you have a crazed clownfish & bristle worms biting/stinging you]...but it's done...and I'm never messing with it again...lol

lol! No...I promise...unless I move again, it's staying as it is...unless I get 1 more piece of LR like I'm planning[but that just adds to the height and won't require rearranging]...

Now the pico...my poor poor little pico... :lol:
