    lol yup hopefully i'll be able to get back in to sw again when i'm out on my own. My career pays good in the long run so once i finish school i can find a job in that field. Then maybee start a lil sw tank, who knows though, but right now i'm concentrating on this one :D

    i tested once again today, readings have not changed, but i've noticed that some rocks have yellow on them, could all of this yellow,green and red be a type of coraline?

    Don't think so, its possible but coraline is pretty hard to start growing espec in an unestablished tank with no lights. More likely its some film algae in various stages of life.

    so then do you think it will eventually go away? it seems like some of the colors take over the others and are all around the same areas

    not sure what to make of it, just let it be though. Still a young tank :)
    At least you dont have man hunting jelly fish attacking you when you try to chase your escaped coral around the tank :O
