    The sailfin tang, cleaner shrimp and chromis came from the LFS. Im sure they have nice fish in stock occasionally, but they are certainly expensive. But if you ever come to Bozeman, you should definitely check them out. Their cascade tank is AMAZING.

    Use old water from your tank to seed the dry rock instead of just using all new water.

    I think that this is a pretty good idea to get that bacteria growth jump started.

    Tank is good, nearing the end of the cycle. The SWC 160 Cone is arriving today along with my aqualifter for my ATO.

    Here is a pic of the OCReef Fixture with both blues and whites on:

    And here is one of the OCReef Fixture and my T5 actinics:

    These pics are from yesterday which was at the end of the sand settling. The tank is much, much more clear today.

    I will get some more pics of the OCReef with just the whites and another one with just the blues tonight. The blues by themselves are crazy and I am expecting some incredible fluorescence from corals once I start adding them.
