I have been on a bit of a break from RS while travelling and having computer problems...working ona MAC right now...help! My firendly Dell service guy is sitting across from me now replaicing the motherboard on my notebook so I should be back up and running shortly if all goes as planned.

Anyways, LR and aquascaping is completed and Wavy Sea is FINALLY up and operational.

On the Wavy Sea note...seems like a great unit so far, but most of the time requires the purchase of a $50 bracket that will fit most tanks. The stock bracket that comes with the unit will only fit smaller rimmed tanks or those with EURO-bracing/bracless. So 50 big ones for a large acryllic one...kind of rediculous if you ask me but what can you do??

Some shots of the aquascaping will up once I get back on my PC. It only took me about 30 minutes to end up with something I was happy with. 100lbs is a lot of LR! I can't imagine trying to pack more than this into a 90 and have space for livestock.

Will do my second round of water testing this evening. Using the new ELOS test kits. Pretty simple from my first try the other day. I will start recording results and monitoring closely as the cycle progresses. I will probably run 6-8 weeks before adding the cleanup crew...my visa will appreciate the break.

Photos to come soon....
