Tank's doing well except for some corals on the edges. A blue digi and my superman haven't been loving life lately. I should have another 250w bulb over the tank as soon as Tuesday I hope. Gotta build a new canopy unfortunately to accommodate.

I want to hopefully beat the algae down a bit more and wait for more growth before I embarrass myself with a FTS!

I know I know I just have a hard time letting go =)

So I just added about 10lbs of extra sand to fill in some bald spots and make my wrasse's bed a little deeper. Poor bugger circled around for like 30 min last night looking all depressed. Of course everyone was wondering what was so interesting over there and he won't dive in with anyone watching. Wife and I watched feeling bad for the little guy. Now he's got a sweet sack to jump into!

Hmmmm wonder how the english vocabulary evolved ? The little guy didn't want anyone watching so he wasn't embarrwrassed when he went to bed. Originated from the saying " embeded wrasse".

Updated shot of the stairs with my freaking massive pfo dual hqi. I can hang off the 2x4 shelf I made which is good because the thing weighs a TON.

New FTS. This canopy is only 8" high compared to the old one which was around 11" high I think. It perfectly fits both reflectors.

It's strange I always thought the tank looked...sharper with only the T5s on. Now I'm thinking it was because of the falloff from the centered 250w. With 2x250w now the tank looks so much sharper and contrasty I love it.
