    Doooooo iiiiiiiit. Seriously, it was worth the expense.

    Thanks Chris; I hope the same. It seems to either takes off or die for people; not much in-between.

    Thanks Shin. I didn't have a chance to take pics last night; my glass is still filthy. ::) I'm playing catch-up this week real bad now; I don't know if I'll take the time for pictures prior to the transfer. Might have to wait on that.


    The overflow box and drains passed the leak test last night. I have 80g of new water ready to go; will pump those into the tank tonight or tomorrow evening so I can get that much and more made again by the weekend. I think I'd better take Monday off work too. More to come soon.

    Thanks Andrew.

    Minus the Firefly, mostly yes. The 3 WWC pieces are just fine, JF's frags look fine as well with one small exception. The Rainbow Delight has a couple areas towards the base where the tissue was irritated; not sure from what. PE is fine on the rest of the frag, so at worst I'll have to frag it above the irritation if it starts to go, but I think it'll be fine.

    Did you cart anything back? I never actually asked; just assumed you had no need to.

    Should be okay. We tried to keep the frogspawns, torches, and goni's away from anything else. If I remember correctly it was downstream from a frogspawn for a few hours before we re-arranged everything.

    I brought back two pieces. Nothing spectacular though... Just a purple and green A. horrida that looks very much like ORA Purple Plasma and another that is similar to a bonsai.

    Wish I could have gone. Sounds like it was a blast! Congrats on all the goodies! Snapping a couple quick pics before your change wouldn't hurt, would it Hunter? ;)

    Alright, alright. I'll drag the hammerhead across the glass this evening and take out my phone, nothing special. And my autofeeder had a bit of a heavy hand during my absence, so ignore the touch of cyano you'll see. Oh I can't wait to be rid of this sandbed...

    Congrats on the new adds and also enjoying MACNA, I'm seriously considering going next year. Good luck on the transfer man, I know those can be very stressful. I can't wait to see the new setup after everything is transferred and opened up! :)
