    So, you said the orange clown is nowhere to be found??? Do you have a screen on top? Did he go carpet surfing?
    That really sucks...

    he is nowhere to be found anywhere around the tank in or out. Now i do not have a cover, as i did not think it would be an issue with just 2 clowns. i was pretty upset to wake up in the morning to check on my new guys to find one missing.

    I think you should order some screen like this from BRS since you're in the ongoing group buy :)

    They are the only online store that carry the perfect sized and CLEAR for fish tanks as far as I know.
    I got the 1/4" one. They do have the frame kits and other convenient tools, but you can find them at the local Lowe's or HD easy (and way cheaper).

    Yup, just tweak it around, fine tune it. I know you'll get there eventually.

    ... sorry I dont have any cable coming out of the tank except the thermometer (really thin) at the moment. I guess you can make it 1 or 2" shorter maybe?

    Got a diamond goby! when I first put him in he went straight to the back of the tank not to be seen. I went out to dinner and over to some friends house. Came back and the whole tank had been sifted and he had made himself a new home under some rock and this morning he had made himself another home. Cool stuff. and a pic of the skimmer performance.

    Congrats, be careful with your placement of corals on the sand the goby will bury them with its sifting.

    Congrats on the new add, JB!
    Looks like you got the hang of the skimmer setting as well. How long did it take to get that much skimmate? Looks ripe and nasty (in a good way).
