Thank you, I'm going to be installing a Kalk Reactor with a Tunze Osolmator in the next week also setting up my Bio-Pellet Reactor and waiting for a new WP40 to arrive. This hobby has changed so much in the past 10 years, It used to be if you had a decent skimmer and quality water and yes of course MH lights then you had a successful tank.  Still a ton of maintenance but now a days there is so much more,

I went to BA London today to prepay for salt and saw 2 really nice B&W Clowns, Great price 35 each with 20Percent off, These two are nice, no brown nose at all, not to say they won't appear later but I'm hoping they don't. My Tomato has been curious but no problems as of yet, The net is ready just in case. It's pretty ansy though. Wish me Luck LOL

Sorry I've been Mia today. I'm hanging out with the little guys out and about the city. Glad to see you got some clowns. I hope the tomato gives them no trouble.

I got him out, Figures the one fish my wife likes, He's in the Sump now waiting for a new home. I snapped my Montipora Cap off it's rock and My Purple Digitata that I just glued but other than that it was pretty easy. I had to remove a few rocks but nothing with Coral Attached, So he will go on the board for 10 bucks or a Frag.

I am loving it now, Took awhile to get it right, I was using a Marineland 300 and to tell you the truth I'm not getting rid of it. For my size tank, The Marineland worked very well, The cup was bigger, The skimmer stood taller but the pump is a pain. Right under neath it. But The Omega 130 is doing a good job so far, Too bad it doesn't have a slow start on it because after power goes out then on it overflows but I'll fix that once I get the Reef Keeper hooked up.

U still have that yellow leather up high and in front of high flow? Mine wasn't happy like that. He now sits on the bottom of the tank in med flow and looks a lot better. Also finally starting to get nice and yellow :)

The Leather hasn't brightened up but the polyps extend really well, its glued to that rock so it's not going anywhere, i'm sure it takes a pounding from the MP40 and it looks good, not like my Orange Octospawn, it's on the bottom now, I think it may of gotten stung by something but we'll see.

Never had much luck with softies and glue. rubber band always did it for me.

What type of glue did you use if I may ask sir?

I think it would be the ecotech glue. I am a big fan of it, it's so THICK :)
