    Matt, do you keep mangroves in the box where the water overflows from? the one at my LFS does and they look really cool growing out of that tower thing

    Thanks. I enjoy this tank a lot. It does require a lot of attention though. Yesterday I did some post-macna water tests and my alk was a bit high and my calcium was a bit low. But it looked good. I need to revisit some dosing threads here... do the math conclusively and get this stuff automated a bit.

    No I had not thought of that -but I am sure it would work great. I do get a lot of algae growth in that box - in fact, when my snails escape I throw them in there to control it a bit.

    These pics are great. That fresh looking cleaner shrimp makes me want to trade in my old crusty coral banded bastard... ;)

    Matt, which view do you find yourself using most with that tank? You guys look through the top or sides?
