    I awoke this morning hating how most of my rock looks and how there was so much wasted space. With a little help from my supervisor I came up with the following. Not what I was planning on doing, but I think it will be just fine. I was able to get more space between the rocks, but I am not completely happy with the two larger rocks to the right of the overflow.

    Thank you. Ollie is adorable. He is only 7 weeks old and is already using the litter pan like a big boy.


    I will probably have to rearrange the coral when I install a MP40 some time in October.

    I thought he looked like a baby! How adorable. How do your older ferrets take to the newbie?

    YAY MP40! You'll love it.

    I like the rock work, I think it looks great. ferrets are cool. I had one for a couple of yrs but got rid of it when we had to move. Ive wanted to get another one for a long time but the wife has dogs now so I dont think it would last.

    Looks great - Im not completely satisfied with mine either bit not willing to move things around. My problem is that I have several really large pieces so I don't know how different I can even make it.

    Looks great - good job.

    After 30 minutes of sniffing, the other four took right to him.

    I can't wait for the mp40. That is another reason for the aquascape change.


    Thank you.

    I know a number of people who have big dogs that love playing with their ferrets. I think it really depends on the dog's demeanor. One of our ferrets could easily kill a small dog if she wanted to...she is a real sweetheart to people she likes. This includes everyone, but our moms.

    Ollie says, "Thank you kind sir". I am hoping that after making more space between the rocks, the health of the tank will increase.

    My problem is that I superglued some frags in place almost 6 months ago and have become attached to the rock for the most part. That really limited my possibilities. Putting the massive xenia rock in the fuge helped though. The boss isn't happy about that at all, but I don't care. I don't want a tank full of xenia. I also broke the GSP in half for the same reason.
