when I saw the difference, it really saves a lot of light, and I angled the Ends to keep the light DOWNWARD.

I added the Trumpet shortly after if fell on the yuma in the 29. it seems to like it in here. There are 2 little shrooms on the side, 1 baby bubble, and one unknown baby, green button frag, those brown and orange zoas from kathy, and some HH clauvaria polyps sprouting up like CRAZY

lol that always works! I replace mine everytime they get all white with dried salt.

Gonna Tag along on this one. I may have to break down and get me one of these little guys for my office. I hate being away from my tank during the day. I think ive been bitten with the Salt Water Bug. Why didn's someone warn me. This could get bad because I have a basement with plenty of space for a big job.

Sorry, BUT, Im gonna have to keep you guys in suspense for a bit. I just finished cleaning, and with most things one little job turns into something more. I salvaged some LR that I took out of my chamber 2 in my cube and Put them to good use and re-scaped the Pico...I am even happier with this new scape, as soon as everybody opens and the water clears I will get some pics....SHOULD be tonight.

tippMANn98 · 08-04-2008, 08:37 PM

OK for all you picture hogs...here they are: A little cloudy and still a little bit pouty!! Better pics tomorrow, for sure!
