We bought our place so I don't have to move all my tanks, but alas, no fishroom. Congrats on the new place & sweet setup there Christy. Must be nice to have a fishroom finally.

Oh I'm sure they get lots of odd requests I do think the realtor was getting a bit frustrated though, there were lots of "perfectly good" houses that we passed on cuz there was no room for the tank.

So I installed a Tunze6100 in the tank today. Decided to use my sure-grip magnet holder cuz its smaller. Its been in a drawer since I started the new tank. As I picked it up I noticed it had separated:



and upon further inspection:



Awesomeness! Its a wonder anything grew in the old tank, except more rust. Sheesh!

My photography skills have deteriorated to the point where I only have two decent photos for you. Sometimes that little screen on my digicam is so deceiving. I think I've gotten the shot and then on my computer its fuzz city or the colors are off. Grr!

Anyway, some neat-o sponges (yes the green slime battle rages on):



The majority of this coral got nuked by the UV bulb incident. It had a couple of branches that survived and I really liked this corals growth pattern and "yellowy-ness" so I figured what the heck. There was also a pink pocillipora and purple rimmed cap attached to the same rock. The pocillipora just tucked in its polyps and weathered the UV storm while the purple rimmed cap said "see ya, buh-bye". Anyway, I'm glad I kept everyone intact as you can see the yellow acro is coming in nicely, the pink pocilipora is well, ridiculously pink and I think there is even some purple rimmed cap under there somewhere
