Hehe...

To your credit, at least you apparently took care of your sandbed properly while it was going. I can't remember, but didn't you use a plenum?

I must say you did have a very very nice setup, one of the better looking 55 gallon tanks I have seen. You did things the right way.

Quick correction to make: We didn't lose ANY attachments in the current upgrade. Any attachments lost were victims of the corrupted database table from a few months back. I had hopes that the upgrade would allow us to recover the attachments, but it doesn't look like that's the case... they're gone. I'm sorry.

But please just know we did not lose a single bit (or byte

) of data in the upgrade process... all went smoothly, unfortunately we can't undo history.

OK, I think all pictures have been restored. Thanks to reefer_addict (addict at RAG), linking is now allowed at RAG and it saved me some time. Thanks Travis for looking into things...

I always thought this tank was a little "too busy," a little too much in one space. I must say that by layering the rocks the way I did in this tank, it fools the eye and makes the tank's width appear to be more than is actually the case. When I tore it down, I was shocked at how narrow a 55 really is. Unfortunatly, after the pictures were taken, my tank, namely my zoanthid populations, really started to decline. I could never find a culprit and ultimately assumed it was due to some viral or bacterial pathogen brought in by a wild-caught colony. Once this colony was introduced, everything went downhill. However, I could grow the heck out of some SPS, even with my VHOs and simple kalk drip. It was fun, now brainstorming my next project...

Take er easy
