Dez' Tank Journal

[Dez]

FIY with about 15' of hose, no water touches my mouth ....

That said, never tried fish crap.... ha ha

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the 75 gallon tank had a sticker that said "Do not drill, Tempered glass." I think that's the main reason I didn't drill. I was tempted to drill the side though, but didn't want to risk it.

Oh... Well the sides would have been OK in most likelihood but you wouldn't be able to drain it down as much. So there ya go anyhow.

Thanks for the ID . I'm really bad with technical names. I really want to get one of those stony coral books with pictures. Christmas is coming soon, so maybe I'll be lucky. Do you know the latin name of the pokerstar? Is it a Danae?

You sure have been busy collecting corals, what a collection
