    I don't want Luna coming after me for pics so I thought I'd post a couple. It has been cycling for about 7 weeks now I think. It's getting there...Sorry, I'm not good with the camera. Too many settings to figure out. You can see diatoms are kickin![​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Thanks. I'm not exactly sure what they are. It is live rock I got right here from the Gulf of Mexico. This guy has a plot out there granted by the government I guess. The rock has all kinds of stuff on it..Clams, plantlife,coraline,even some coral. I went to his house where he has a huge workshop for culturing his rock. It has more life on it than rock Ive had for 8 years and this is his cheapest rock lol. I saw some he had curing that looked amazing! Which is his premium stuff that he sells for more.

    I liked the black too. I got the tank used from a guy who had just had someone come in and paint it. The guy did a good job. He also added the wood corner moldings which I like and painted the back glass a seafoam green. So far i am diggin this tank. It is about finished cycling. Glad cuz I want to get the fish from my 40 gallon in this so I can tear it down.

    There is more rock to add too. So not really aquascaped yet. I don't know how I want to arrange it. Too many possibilities and I'm so indecisive. I'll make my girlfriend do it lol...
