I was going to wait a little longer but my heater stop working on new years eve. when I came back home the next day, my temp was down to about 50D. I unfortunately lost two peppermint shrimp an my green polyps Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

I'm planning on painting the back of the tank black or blue

wow! I love the rock work. Im not so creative with it myself. I cant wait to be able to start up some corals. Looking good Smile
We finally picked up a 125 gal today. When we get everything transferred I could sell you the 55 real cheap if your interested. Good luck with your tank. Welcome to the salt water side!!!

Wow, nice job. Great looking, clean tank. The aquascaping is really nice. It draws you in, but makes you want to look at the whole picture, not focus on one area. Very nice.

So when is the 55 going to be set up?LOL It wont be long, I'm sure Smile

Did you move the corals from a rock to another rock or are you just rearranging your rocks?

Yeah I moved some corals around cause I added about 30 more pounds of live rock
and I also added more corals

Well next time you've got a couple extra $ and the time to stop by my office, let me know. I have a LOT of zoanthids and they wont cost nearly what you would pay at the LFS. Typicaly 5 & 10 $ per frag. Couple I have are more, but less than others are going to charge.
