    Looks like your off to a good start. How long have the clown and damsel been together and have you had any problems with aggression between them?

    I started the tank with them. At first the Damsel was pretty pushy w/ the clown. That has all gone away though. They have pretty much settled in areas of the tank and hang out in community areas as well w/ no problems.


    I need to find a protien skimmer that will work with this small TRUVU. Anybody have any ideas? Hopefully ones that are under $100. :D

    I've got lotsa karma for anyone that gives Joe here an extra hand getting his tank dialed in nicely. Who's first?

    Another thing I need to work on is better lighting. I'm kind of limited on what I can use because of the size of the tank and how the top is layed out. I went to take some pictures but as soon as I hit the button the D5000 said beeeeeeeeeep LOW BATTERY!!!!! lol. I'll get a pic of the top up asap and if anybody has any ideas for lighting feel free to link here in this thread. Thx.
