    Nice hammer. One of my new favorites. Oh and GSP is my least favorite. It totally took over 2 big rocks in my tank (my fault for not staying on top of it), I had to throw them out and get a couple new rocks. My tank is now GSP free and will stay that way.

    Thanks :D they are really cool. I quite want the GSP to get going. I could end up changing my mind on that though ;) :lol:

    I have just this evening added a VorTech MP40w EcoSmart to my tank. Trying to work it out lol & position is so it is not blasting the corals! Anyone have any experience with best positions?

    Black ops is on the shelf ;) Cannot leave that one out lol

    Thanks haloist :D I wouldn't say I look to collect figurines but I do collect Xbox games & if there is a special edition I gotta have it lol figurine included lol ;) I have many other special editions but they did not all come with a figure, sometimes just special cases :D

    Hey :) thanks very much

    Thanks a lot haugcm2, its taking a lot of time & hell of a lot of money but its the best hobby I have ever had & there's been a few :lol:

    Thanks rc_mcwaters3, I have 3 sea stars in there somewhere lol the blue star is always out but the minstrel star is always hiding lol. The blue Gorgonian is gorgeous but I have seen some polyp loss. It started to diminish quite quickly when I first got it but it has started to recover recently & is starting to grow polyps back. Fingers crossed it stays well :D

    Thanks again everyone :D If there are any close up requests please feel free to ask. I also have the sump which I'll post pics of at some point :D
