    oh really! i thought birdsnest needed to be spot fed, guess not, im really hoping i could walk away with birdsnest, brain, and some other nice coral, i have some christmas money which was around $75ish and a $50 bonus, and my sis owes me a xmas present so i'll have her buy me something. I'm probably going to spend a little bit more, but not to much because i dont have that much money, but i get paid on monday.

    finally got around to fixing my lid. I had an open space in the back from where i had the filter and when we put the window screen on the egg crate there was a big open space, i lucked out with my firefish not jumping in that area but i knew i was going to be getting a wrasse tomorrow and they jump, and with them being the new guys figured they would try to so i wanted to get it fixed ASAP. Another thing i changed was i used only one layer of screen door on the top of the eggcrate so it no longer touched the water. So my dad sewed *sp* the window screen to the eggcrate to make it hold.

    no longer touching water, it looked like it was causing dead spots and was collecting algaes when i had two layers of the screen door
