    Servillius had this tank made for me so I would leave his alone. It is exactly the amount of effort I am willing to put in. I have a plumbed sump with a bunch of crap in it that Servillius swears I need. I have the T5's up top for my little zoas and all my numbers are perfect.

    I am attributing the perfection mostly to my pot. It is just an unglazed terracotta pot that I ran though the dishwasher (sans soap) a couple times. We think there is a sudo-plennum (spelling?) filtration system that has set up underneath it. Since it started releasing TONS of bubbles my nitrates have dropped to zero. Plus, it's pretty.

    Thank you! The anthias is named Midas, the true perc is Mr. Puggles, and the sailfin is Bernad. They really are camera *****s. :)

    I almost lost Midas because the shipping company didn't knock! I managed to hear his scanner (that's how close to the door I was) and chase him down. Poor little ($$$!) guy was about to be shipped back to the store and I doubt he would have survived.

    Like the pot. I'll like it even better once those zoas spread.
