9 pm Tonight.....

KimPossible · 01-24-2006, 11:19 PM

My sitting room is dark. The lights are off in my 55 gal. The lunar lights are on and there is a blue hue in the tank. My Colt and Torch are settled and my large Hawaiian Fan is swaying in current. The fish are calm. I would show you a picture but it wouldn't capture it. This is the rewarding part of reef keeping.
It's Beautiful.

Hope to get to that point someday. Right now it's more worry and money than anything. Only 6 weeks in though.

Now there is a smart man.

I miss my tank that was well taken care of. the one that looked nice. Now I have an Algea outbreak and the tank is in the corner. Out of sight, out of mind for the most part. I can not wait to get my 180 up, and the tank contents under control.

That is my favorite time to watch the tank. Now that I have moonlights, I don't know how I went years without them...I just love to see the corals fluoresce under the LED'.
