    haha, will do, soon, soon. I've been so busy at work and with my daughter lately. I'm mad at myself for letting the coraline grow out of control on the sides of the tank, bad reefer :)

    pics coming pretty soon, I just got a cool new feather duster, and re-arranged my tank a little, added a new piece of LR, found some new zoas sprung up. I also have most vivid blue mushroom growing in the back of my tank, wth I want them up front!

    Here's a little quick vid I took with my phone tonight, shows my new Tusk (he's still getting chased a bit but things are settling) and I tinkered with my scape as usual:

    Looks good. I just can never get over the depth that bigger cubes provide. I think I'm gonna have to go to a 150 cube when I ever upgrade. ;D

    Nice video and nice pickup. I expected the PBT to get at the Tusk but not the Bangai cardinals and the Yellow Head Jawfish.

    My LFS has had a 150 cube sitting in their store for at least a year.....I drool over it every time I go in.

    Sweet video. Your tank is awesome.. I'm curious though, which of your fish runs the show in there? Or who's the "alpha" I guess you could say..

    Thanks for the kind words. I actually had to remove the Tusk from the tank as it was getting bullied to death by my Powder Blue & Cardinals. My LFS is currently holding it for me and I'm trying to decide if I want to remove the PBT and maybe one of the Cardinals and put the Tusk back in. I expected a bit of aggression from the Tang but not the Cardinals. I believe it's because they are a mated pair and it might be "that time" for them.

    Currently the PBT is def the king of the tank. My LFS says to keep the PBT as it's rare to have them do so well and mine's been great. Decisions, decision, I've never seen an Aussie Tusk this size, very hard to come by them also.

    Just got a Phoenix 14K Mogul bulb so thought I'd post some new pics of the tank, I'm liking it just as much as my Radium 20K:
