Dan, thanks! Glad to see you at the shop again! You guys are doing a great job!

While going through the memory card in my camera i found these pics. These two were probably the last pics taken before the AEFW got to the corals.

Sigh... Glad I was able to capture the tank one more time before the outbreak.

120 Resurrection

It's been a long four months since I tore down the 120 and I have to admit... It was the best way ( for me) to eradicate the flatworms and to be certain they will not come back. Today is a special day ( besides being Father's Day) as once again, the 120 is being filled with water again.

I've made some changes... 1)Two new light stands bolted behind the tank ( thanks, Jon! Awesome job on them! ). Each stand will be supporting a Mitras 2) dropped the mp40 and mp60 for two Tunzes. 3) I've filled the bottom with sand
4) eliminated a lot of rocks and to go with more of a simple and open concept look.

I am still making more new water for the tank tonight so it won't be fully up and running until tomorrow however, I was able to snap a few pics to share... Hope to share some better pics in a day or two... Tank is still cloudy from the sand.

Jon, thanks! Could not have made it this far without great friends in this crazy hobby.

love the new scape Wayne!

Yup, love the layout. I'm a fan of those islands and lots of negative space on the sand. Lookin' good!
