    Holy moly! 3 people died from the tornado in your city! Glad you are ok, and of course, your fish. Everything back to normal now, hopefully?

    Thank you. The dog and I got quite a scare while hiding in the basement, but other than that we're good. Things are quieting down and starting to get back to normal.

    As for the tank the fish were acting odd and worms were crawling out of the sandbed and up the glass. I have a feeling it wouldn't have lasted much longer.

    The aquascape I had up until now was too symmetrical and the heater was visible. I wanted to break up the symmetry and hide the heater. With those two goals in mind I came up with this scape. The corners feel a little empty, but maybe with more corals growing on the side glass it won't look so empty. The Euphyllia was growing too large for it's spot and needed to be moved as well.

    FTS with new scape:

    The tank is doing well since rearranging the LR. Here is a clear FTS and a couple pics of some Zoas.

    Thank you!

    Thank you!

    Thank you!

    Petco should have a sale soon. IIRC they have the sale twice a year, once in winter and once during summer.
