    Pic Update

    Here are some pics:
    The rock is all in my 37 gallon tank, it had no rock before, the tank has a nice label that say tempered, so I will go with gl******* OF 1500 kit, and the stand needs some work but in good condition

    Tank will look good when all finished up. Thats some nice live rock. I would hate to see it killed. I think I see some sponge and nice coraline. Were there any pests in them? Great start keep the pics coming as you progress.

    Well my Coralife Super skimmer collection cup had an accident in transit and got pretty messed up, my wife did fix as much as she could with silicone and a glue gun, but is still missing some pieces were the rubber seal is on the cup side and WONT seal so is leaking. If anyone has a spare cup and is willing to sell PLEASE!!!! let me know...:cry::cry:

    Thanks
