    Update:

    - The Potters is picking at the rocks, though I haven't seen him take prepared foods yet.

    - The Powder Blue is doing awesome. He is chowing down on veggies in the clip and taking prepared foods.

    Tighe took this cool pic of me through the tank:

    Sounds great!
    And I am sure the Potters will eventually feel 'up to it' to take some food!
    Awesome photo too

    Yes there is, though I can't give too many details because I want to keep some stuff as a surprise.

    I'm putting two different lights on the tanks. Since they are next to each other, for esthetic reasons I needed to make enclosures. One key piece (and expensive piece) of each was ready to be picked up yesterday. I arrived to pick them up and they were waiting for me outside the shop. They looked great! The looked... identical? Not supposed to be identical, at least on the part that wont be visible. They made them both to the size of the lights for the semi-reef side.

    The good news is that they have a partner shop in San Jose that can cut it and fix the issue so it won't be visible. The shop manager drove it down last night and if I can get out of work by 4:15 I should be able to get down there today to pick it up before they close so the lights can get put up this weekend.

    Also, fish are getting shipped from Florida tonight via Delta air freight for a Saturday pick up from Oakland airport.
