    Just snapped a few new pics and figured I would post them. rock scape is a little messed up because I was waiting for the rbta to plant himself. I'll redo it soon.


    But here is some more pics.....
    FTS....gotta rescape everything now that the rbta nem is starting to get a little more settled.

    Pistol and Goby were placed in the tank in the same general area. Paired up instantly in a small burrow. Still haven't come out while I had the camera out so all I have is some pics of them in the bags still. I'll post more when I can get them.

    Got the goby shrimp pair from cseaaquatics.com for $16.50. Picked up locally so it was a steal of a deal. I can't wait for their burrow to get settled so I can get some pics. The goby has really cool markings. They are pink dots surrounded by green/blue rings. They both are just peeping out and I can't get my cam to focus on them.

    Nice tank and sweet nem!!! My 72 bow has the most retarded built in overflow, it's off center and makes current flow and aquascape less than ideal. I'd like to cut it out, seal it up, and install a box like yours.


    Why do overflows have to be some damn big???????

    Its funny you mention that because I think mine is sooo big! I just got another one for my 155g bowfront that has a much smaller internal box that I plan on installing on my 72 when I get time.
