    LOL didn't think anyone would notice. I used it as packing for my wife's birthday gift i sent while i was stationed in Korea. Wonder how long it will take for these bubbles to go away.

    Time for an Update!!!!!!

    Got a second Clown fish so hopefully they will pair up. they spend alot of time together and even sleep together at night so im considereing them paired for now. they where both smaller clowns from the tanks they where and one is a little bit bigger so hopefully that helps alittle.

    I have algae growing every where of all different types. so i ordered my CuC from Reefcleaners.org. the 90 Gallon Quick crew with hermit crabs as well as some cheato and pods for the fuge.

    The crabs are already every where and very active. Some of the snails are crawling around and alot of them are burrowing for now. i cant wait till tonight to see them crawl around

    I see you changed the scape a bit. Nice! I think you are getting green coralline?

    Most snails are nocturnal, they move around a lot as soon as the lights out. Oh one night, one big snail was crawling around the bottom of the front glass OUTSIDE!

    I'm getting green algae on all the rocks but I'm not sure if it's coralline or some other type of algae. My astrea snails seem to be eating it off the rock so I dont think its coralline algae. on the left rock i have some red algae thats getting bubbles on it so im hoping something mows that down before it spreads much more. i also have several spots of darker red and darker green algae that im hoping are coralline. Only time will tell i guess!

    I'm going to the LFS on black friday and going to pick out my first few coral frags. My wife wants a clam but I'm afraid of getting one this early.

    Thanks to everyone for the compliments, and yes this is my first adventure into saltwater!
