    Awesome adds!!! Compare to yours, mine is really empty..

    These are some quality shots! What kind of lens do you use with your Rebel? And can I ask for some FTSs?

    Update, so its been a while. Had a dosing pump go out on me and didn't dose Kh for a while so things seemed to have lost a significant amount of brilliance, but we are bouncing back for now.

    As for tank updates, I had 1 wrasse go carpet (tile) surfing. The solon is not longer around. However, I had planned on removing him for the flame anyways, so disappointing that he didn't get a good home, but it worked out.

    Also added a small BP reactor, only does 150ml of pellets, but I also have a large fuge and just wanted to negate any possible nutrients in the system. Changed the skimmer out for an SWC Xtreme 160. Ordered a few new dosing pumps, so things are gonna start doing better I can tell.

    Yup. I ordered the BRS 1/4" stuff, its just packed up to give to myself as a Christmas gift. LOL.That solon diving out was 5 weeks ago through the fish netting I previously had was the catalyst for replacement.
