    careful with the autofeeders. took me a couple weeks to dial mine in on my cichlid tanks. it was adjustable and would decide to start spewing food on its own. was a cheap $12 one and i wound up having to silicone the adjustable gate to make it stop overfeeding.

    Thanks for your comment, I had my lfs guy install it to make sure its set up properly. Plus I have someone to chekck the parameters daily, I hope all will be ok... when I get back, I will get my first corals.... probably some Mushromms to start out with some hardy ones....
    Leaving for Germany tomorrow. I will miss my tank!!

    Looking good Pelado.
    I would be careful with those auto feeders as well.
    BTW, in the second pic, I notice the reflection of what seems to be your curtains? I have the same ones in my home;D;)

    Oh jeeeez.... what a trip... Germany is FREEEEEEZING and of course I was concerned about my tank but my lfs guy came twice and it's looking great. Got my first muschrooms today... sorry but my camera is not working. I will post a pick tomo. Also, I am happy that I got 2 Peppermint shrimp that will hopefully take care of my apthaisia problems.
    So happy to be back :) Hope you are all well!!!!

    First corals added

    Like I mentioned ... thank God I am back from freezing Germany... actually came two days sooner. Tank is looking great. Got the mushrooms and two peppermint shrimp yesterday and today we had a power outage, which freaked me out. But it only lasted for a couple of hours. My RO unit is not working right now.... don't ask why... no idea, so I went out and bought some water. The Mushrooms are doing quite well... pic attached. And soon (in about 2 weeks the next fish). For now all I have in there is a coral banded shrimp, 2 peppermint shrimp, snails, one sandsifter starfish, 2 small green chromis and 2 ocillaris black and white (they are sooo cute btw. ... always sleep together :))

    Sorry about the quality of the pic... I only had my cellphone but will post some more soon.
