    Great aquascape. I like the newly added LPS, as well.

    Very nice looking set up! I apreciate the rock scape as well. Anxiously awaiting the stocking of this aquarium. I am battleing a minor algae problem these days. Kind of disheartening but when I catch sight of builds like these, it's certainly motivating! Thanks.

    Thanks everyone! We just added 25 hermits. We'll add more hermits as well as snails later.

    I have issues with sallys snagging fish and eating them. And I spot fed the Sally every day

    Two Vortech MP60's, Lumen Bright reflectors, and 250w 14k Phoenix bulbs are on their way. Should be here next week - thanks Uncle Sam!!! Finally some progress on what has proven to be the slowest build in 3reef history :).

    Came home to find a box full of goodies on my front porch - 250 W 14 K Phoenix bulbs. Three for my tank and two for my wife's tank.

    It's pretty nice getting updates from 2 people on 1 tank. :)

    The two Vortech MP60's should be nice! Are you going with the battery back-ups?
