    Thank you, not sure if Purple Up helped or if that's just normal after a length of time. Will post a few new pics tomorrow if I can get the Flametail Blenny and Six-line to make an appearance. I'm assuming they will stay hidden for a few days.

    Lookin good Ash, I'd swear you painted those rocks after month 3....lol that's some awesome color there. It really makes everything POP when you've got some nice colored live rock. Keep up the good work and keep the pics coming

    Was able to get pretty friendly with my last Six-line, they are very shy but I think once they associate you with food, it should be possible w/ my camera phone.

    Lol ya they do almost look painted. I really feel like Kent's Purple Up and starting off with a smaller but completely purple rock really helped to seed the tank and speed up the coralline growth process.

    Really love taking pictures but my original camera dropped and is now broken. Really have my eyes set on a nice Nikon w/ a 100mm lens so I can start taking real pictures like the pro's!

    Once the frogspawn is acclimated I'll snap a quick photo, it is two really large heads from a super large mother colony from one of my LFS. He has amazing stuff (Blue Ridge Reef & Pets - Asheville, NC)

    Thanks! Just checked out my two new additions -

    The six-line seems to have made friends with my Occy Clown and has been investingating the rock work for any pods not paying attention. (They aren't used to being predated upon)

    The flametail blenny has found the tiniest hole for himself to fit down into so now all I can see sticking out is his goofy head. Looks like some black slime algae growing on the rock lol. I'll try to get a picture once the lights come on (I think my light schedule is from 12pm-11pm with daylights running from 2-8pm)
