    That's a night and day difference! That looks like it's going to be a great improvement.

    Thank you all very much!!!

    Question...Feather duster have tubes right? do aptasia?

    Aquaboy...I know I feel like me and Luna have about the same problems at the same time LOL

    A very nice guy at Star Aquatics in Augusta GA(gotta give the shout out!) talked me out of a fuge/sump and talked me into more rock. I told him all the things with not being able to keep zoa's and ric's and nitrates being high, then he asked how much lr, I said not enough. so there ya are! We went thru the whole thing what are your parameters and what eq I have and he said I needed more rock...I agreed! So, I'm still going to do a fuge/sump, when I get the money for the overflow and mag5......gotta save the tips again Yeah, it makes the tank look so much bigger now.. Does the Aquascaping look ok to ya'll? It took about an hour and some cussin', but I got it all in there and it doesn't move! I took two of the pieces I made and used them for the base, the way I made them makes it great for that.

    Oh, when ya'll read/watch the news tomorrow about the tornadoes in Mathews and Wrens GA, that's where I am. 9 miles, if that from Mathews. There's trailers they haven't found yet, that have just disappeared. YUK. At work, thru the whole storm, the band played on. We said we're goin down with the ship LOL My boss's house got Nailed! She HAD huge 150 old oak trees all over her yard and they all came down, on her house and the crazy thing is, there are No leaks and not one broken window...crazy! OK ttys! Thanks ya'll for letting me blah blah blah!
