    update

    A few updates, got my cuc and started running phosban/carbon 24/7. The difference in the amount of algae is night and day. Diatoms are almost history and I only have a few green patches here and there on my rock. Also added my first corals to the tank and got a steel on them. 15 dollars for 2 montipora's which I didn't think I could pass up, and a frog spawn. Also added a baby sailfin tang which my wife and I love. Here are some pics of the additions.

    Just an update, I had told my lfs a while back that I wanted a midas blenny and they had been having problems finding one. They finally got some in on Tuesday. I went and picked him up on Friday to make sure he was eating and was active and healthy. Very cool little fish and adds a lot of personality to the tank. He is hard to photograph, but I managed to get a few good pics!

    Well, its been quite some time since I have updated this thread with any new pics. I haven't been able to add too or do much work on the tank in a few months. Unfortunately i've been dealing with a ruptured disc in my back and have undergone many treatments and finally surgery, which Im recovering from now.
    Thanks to my wife we've been able to keep up with water changes and basic maintenance and all is still healthy. I've had her hard at work too making sure that the tank stays in the best health until Im able to fully take care of it. I have a good bit of dead red cyano that I haven't been able to get off the rocks, but I believe it is all dead and just needs a good manual cleaning which I cant wait to be able to do. But enough with the babbling here are some pics of things my wife has added and a full tank shot. Thanks for asking tatted :)
