    Oh of course:) Might take a day or 2 tho. Used fine sand and it kicked up a pretty good sandstorm.

    Updated pic. 90 was clear then I started putting rock in and it kicked it all back up, ugh. Hopefully tommorrow will be aquascaping. [​IMG]

    Dbo your tank is looking sweet! I am guessing you are moving the 60 into the 90 once it's cycled? It's gonna be a nice up grade for you. If you got the sugar sand might I recommend a diamond goby to keep the sand from becoming stagnate at the top. If you put one in while it's new he will keep it stirred up nicely and later the dust storms won't happen :) I might have a couple for sale here in a bit as I'm not sure about putting my sand back in the tank today.. Might try a bare bottom thing for a bit...

    Thanks heidi. Actually the 90 is no more :( i originally sold it to my sisters bf a few years ago and he tried to run it as a reef and he failed at it. We set it up in my house so I could show him the ropes and he planned on leaving it here. Wellll they broke up so he's taking it with him. The 65 is doing really good though so I can't complain to much :)

    Read the entire thread. I love the "new" aquascape. Looks like 2 islands. I can only hope to someday have something similar to yours. Awesome job!

    Shot a quick video of the tank yesterday. It's a phone video so the quality it lacking and the color isn't quite right but eh I though I would share it anyways!
