I was about to post that he was probably hiding. They are very good at that.
Sounds like you are getting things set up nicely. You and your reef will be much happier in the long run.
You will need to be super careful on that 10g. Check the levels daily. Specially salinity and amonia.
Keep us posted.
Lynn, I am going away this weekend! That means I will miss Saturday testing for sure. Thank you for the tip. I'll test tomorrow and Sunday and do a water change if necessary.

Steve, I bet you are right. Once I get it started out right I'll be happier and more content.

One thing that really hit me last night is the importance of powerheads. I have never had one in the display tank and when I sucked out the water it was so stagnant and filthy at the bottom that I wondered how anything lived. Plus the decorations and live rock were COVERED in detrius. This is only 4 days after a 20 gal. water change and tank cleaning.
