    Looks good Adam. Have you ever thought of slapping a t5 on your fuge and making it a mini-frag tank?

    I have actually. If I have some spare money available I'll be buying a small light for down there instead of the junkie t8

    That's the monti I got in December. It is in the middle of my tank and a little to the left.

    I called aquarium guys back, it should be 7-9 more days until I get my test kits.

    Update

    Three of my corals fell of their plug since the last post. My jumbo turbo snail was to blame for the seriatopora falling, I accidentally knocked over the stylophora, and I have no clue who knocked over the ricordeas. I put the rics in a new place and they are opening up well. The seri is in the same place and doesn't have any polyp extension yet. The stylophora must have loved the fall, because it's doing very well even though it's in the same location.

    I also started the bidding on the led unit today. It ends in about 2 1/2 days. I have a feeling I'm going to win it :)

    At 1am the light will be mine! I outbid someone on it and now I'm paying 178 instead of 160, but I'm still happy with the price. Free shipping too.

    My monti is bleaching! I don't know why either, it's only on the bottom of the plate. Not enough light? Its not really a big deal if it dies, I didnt like it much anyways, but I still want to save It if I can.
