    I have just now started to put coral back in the tank so FTS is just going to show a bunch of water ;D I did try and get a pic of the Naso's last night and they will not stay still long enough. Think I might try a video since they are on the move so much. :-/

    Hey Otty,
    I've just watched ur video again after a few months, and man, I really like everything you've done. I'd like to do a pennisular like urs some day..

    Did you expoxy the rocks wet, dry, out the tank, in the tank, etc? I've had a little trouble bonding rocks already submerged.

    I epoxied the rock in the tank wet so the water will help hold some of the rocks weight. After it was mounted I just kept adding pieces of epoxy to all the joining parts and it held up really well. Don't be sparing with the epoxy because it takes a lot to hold the rock together.
