    Thank you for the kind words, everyone. I know, I should probably start posting more incrementally, instead of blasting you guys with a giant update once per year ::)

    I forgot to include a picture of my "through the wall" setup. It's simple, but that's just how I like it :)

    You can also see that I decided to get the Reef Octopus Diablo skimmer. LOVE IT! :sweethear

    Ha! That is my super high-tech way of keeping the tube from my RO unit in place when I'm topping the tank off 8)

    Hmm I suppose it's time for my semi-annual update :)

    Most of my corals are the squishy kind, but I do have several LPS. And my zoanthid garden is sporting some new additions. My serpent star is now nearly a foot in diameter, as is my LTA during the day.

    I've had one death, a carpet-surfing goby, who inspired me to build a screen for the top. It was much easier than I thought it would be, and now I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner.

    I don't have many additions in the fish department (I don't have room for any more) but I did get a great deal on a Candy Stripe Basslet, who was too shy for a picture. I also picked up a pair of peppermint shrimp because a couple of the zoas I got from a LFS had some aiptasia.

    My system is still easy-breezy and low maintenance - It's not fancy, but it's perfect for me and I love being in the "sweet spot" with it. :)
