    Todd as always your tank looks fantastic. I envy you being able to sit down each night and watch the live show. Bravo!

    Thanks for viewing and the kind words Wayne. Your Beast/Large Reef is already starting to some along nicely.

    Thank You, stop by anytime. I'm currently stiing accross the room form it watching under the natural/ambient morning light. MY blues come on in about 10 minutes. The fish are just cruising around, waiting for the next light cycle, feeding, etc.

    great video Todd. We were going to pick up a flame angel tonight and the guy said that even with a 210 it would fight with our CB. I noticed in your video they swim by one another without even batting an eye.

    A local friend was posting on our local forum WisconsinReefSociety.com
    about WTB a Duncan, 10-15 heads.
    He got some replies, including one that wanted $20/head, I guess it was a special Duncan.

    The good Lord made me realize that Juan had given me corals in the past.
    I posted last night, we both had some time today and he stopped by.

    I used a wood chisel and hammer, and in one cut, cut 20 live heads from 6 live heads.

    This is it before the surgery

    I kept the 6- Juan now has the 20 header

    While watching my Amphipods in my sump on the glass, I saw this wormy thingy, it was about 2cm long,
    and the head had some small antenna- that the Iphone wouldn't focus in on.

    The small line to the right is a crawling amphipod.

    I thought it really cool. I find myself watching my sump alot these days, now that the walls are glass and I can see thru to what's on stuff, the chaeto, the bin dividers, etc.
