    An updated picture of our GSP "tank" - it's really getting encrusted now. I moved it the other where it was straddling two rocks. After I moved it, the six-line wrassed kept swimming through the tank, in the front and out the back. Jwin shined a flashlight in there last night and the wrasse is now sleeping in the hull of the tank! ;D

    Triplemom - a wrasse with a tank is a worrying thought
    you got any shells in there?

    WOW, your pictures are really really looking great.

    I love the pic w/the goby and pistol together. very rad.


    your dendro is looking nice. I'm going to try to feed mine something else...



    I was going to get one of those feather rocks too, from that new sponsor... but it was $38 shipping just to get a $12 duster rock... couldn't justify that! Looks very rad. You got a pic of it a bit further out to see it in relationship to its surroundings?

    Nice stuff

    Thanks! I love the shrimp/goby - I'm just glad my rocks are bonded together - they can can really rearrange things in a hurry!

    I actually moved the thing again. It's probably really ticked at me now. I decided to try a little less light. I actually glued it to a bigger rock that I can move around - I may not see any tentacles for a few days. Sorry, dendro!

    I love that feather duster rock! I happened to walk in the LFS when he had just put those out - $10! He only had 3 and I bet they were gone in no time. My lucky day. I took a picture for you. Because it had little duster tubes going everywhere, I decided to just use some of that marine putty and stick it to the side of a rock towards the front of the tank. The flow comes from the back across the front of the rocks, so it gets decent flow.

    Whine, whine, whine! :lol: It's a six-line wrasse tank now - I guess I'll have to name him Rambo or something.

    Canopy

    That canopy is really cool. I want one for my 46 BF. Can you hook me up with measurements or a diagram?

    Also, I'm just getting started on my reef setup. Just got everything plumbed and ready to go. It's nice to see such a healthy looking tank. The LFS I went to told me that with a 46 I would only be able to put like 2 fish in it.
