    Oh yes we are. Haha. I think the design of the website is very easy to navigate. Its not cluttered feeling but has everything that we will need it to, along with a couple extras. I am not a computer genius like Joss, so that portion is kinda up to him. But I know it will be done right and the finished product will be well worth the work he is putting in.

    We are both way too excited. Haha.

    I was up till around two last night acclimating a bunch of new corals. I picked up 25 new SPS frags and colonies and a handful of zoas and chalices. Everything looked good when I put it in and from what I can tell it looks good with the lights off now. My JBJ ATO comes in the mail today along with another bucket of Red Sea Coral Pro salt. I bought over a thousand frag plugs and a lot of other miscellaneous equipment as well last night. Im going to be hanging another halide unit today as well! Busy day! But Ill be posting pictures as I do everything. :)

    Cool rock anemone.

    New frogspawn not totally opened yet.

    Have to research what type of chalice this is. But it looks great under LEDs.

    [​IMG]

    Bubble gum chalice.

    [​IMG]

    This war coral has some mean sweepers... Not sure what Im going to do with it yet.

    [​IMG]

    Acropora turaki. My personal favorite that I bought this time around.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Decent sized green slimer.

    [​IMG]

    I was told these were Bam Bam zoas when I bought them. Upon further investigation, Im thinking differently.

    [​IMG]

    Bought a bunch of these donuts.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    The style plugs I bought. A spot in the center for glue, thicker base so it sits in eggcrate better, and a break point in the base so it could more easily be glued to your rock.

    Do I have enough Seachem supplements?

    [​IMG]

    Another new toy!

    Space being cleared out for my computer area. The system should all be able to be controlled from here ideally. Im starting to think that besides when Im at my day job, I may never leave this room when Im home. Haha.

    An electrician is coming by today to look at our house. I want to have this room split up onto atleast 2 different circuits. Once that is done I can keep expanding. There are no more open outlets and I hate the idea of plugging powerstrips into powerstrips...

    These pictures were taken soon after I turned the lights on. So not everything is looking as good as it could be just yet. Ill be able to get some better shots later. But now its time for testing and organizing!

    Norg. About that "Pink Birdsnest" from DFS (I know you got it from Paul, thats where I got mine) it will turn into a Bird of Paradise with a green base under bluer lighting IME. I've seen mine and someone else's do this. Also, my tank testing routine has gone and this thing GROWS LIKE STINK! In 3 months its gained about 3/8" all round. And that in a tank which had a hyposalinity problem! I'm sure this is one you'll be fragging a lot. Good luck!

    Also, if you see Paul, will you tell him to bring some more chalices to the Lansing swap for me please?
