Wow, I have really not been updating this thread. Ill start off from where I can remeber I left off lol.

Ok, so I moved the fish tanks out of my room cause they were causing mold and that is not so healthy for you. Anyways, I took the center brace out of my stand so I could fit the sump in and then moved all the stuff down to the living room. At this point I'm pretty sure I still just had the shrimp and snails cause that cool little blenny died from ich I think. I then got an emerald crab to help clean up the HA in the tank.

The tank just sat there for a while doing its thing, putting along and then Christmas rolled around. My mom really likes clown fish and wants me to raise them even though I told her numerous times that its a lot of work that I don't wanna do at this point in time lol. Anyways, she bought me a clown and my sister bought me one too! Finally had fish in the tank again! Then for my birthday, like a week after Christmas, my mom got me an anemone which was pretty cool but it seems to be having a rough go, but ill talk about that later. So that was how it was for a while, pretty awesome being able to chill in the living room and actually have something to look at in the tank that moves. Then my little MH light broke so I got a Coralife 4 bulb HO T5 fixture with moonlights. Friggin awesome thing, looks better on top of the tank, better coverage, I do miss the shimmer but I like the fixture a lot and can't wait to play around with the bulbs and get the color I really want.

Then I saw a post on here for a free mushroom and was like (score)! I went to his house and he gave me a whole bunch of hairy shrooms and (I think) ricordias on a cool piece of LR for free! Major score. So I got those in the tank no problem and they look really cool. Then I decided I wanted to go BB so out with the sand it was. Man that was a task and a half and it is only a 15g! lol I really like the look of the tank now and have been kinda playing around with the rock scape and I moved some stuff around today and think that I have found what I want. I just throw the pieces in the sump if I don't think they fit in the display and take em out if I find a use for them. Here are some pictures!

FTS as of today

Middle section that I made today


Anyways, that all i have got for now. Let me know if you want any other pictures of anything closer or whatever. Oh and in the pics the shrooms were just fed so they were all swollen up and whatnot.
