cool, thanks for the input guys

got a few steps done. i got my eggcrate

got money from the ATM

will try to get to norman, and get the sixline tomorrow

Well, no sixline. maybe next weekend.

on the upside i added some more rocks, and made more caves. also reduced the crap in my tank by rrmoving the black box my skimmer uses. i put abunch of filter floss, instead. it takes up less room.
should i leave thecskimmer like this, or change it back? my concern is that now there is no carbon in the tank. someone mentioned my leather, and i need to run carbon now. opinions?
ive got plenty of pics that ill post when i get my wireless turnec back on. ( on my phone right now ) o forgot how many things my phone does lol

ok well here my new attempt at pics. mainly fish only. made a slideshow because i closed the screen 2 times when i had pics

need names for Clown A, Clown B, and Tang...LOL

at the end im showing that i egg crated the top, also took out the black box that my skimmer uses, and just put abunch of filter floss there. its smaller, and looks better. also my skimmer is easier to handle now!

Awesome slide show, great production value! I'm a bit unsure of the ball of filter floss over the skimmer intake.

Thasnk Jemery!

Dentoid · 03-03-2009, 06:14 PM

Yes, it looks funny. At least the black box hid these things and gave you a place to run carbon and the like. Just my opinion though.

new reefer 03 · 03-03-2009, 06:39 PM

yea true. idk ill probably change it back this weekend during the WC.
im getting ready to pot some corals lol

new reefer 03 · 03-03-2009, 07:07 PM

Conchs or nassarius snails? Do you realize they get several inches long? I would think 2 is a maximum for a 55. I've never heard real numbers but that is what I would go with.
They are super cool critters. They kind of look like an elephant and their eyes peeking up just make me laugh.
