The lit skimmer is a neat idea but I wonder if you'll find you'll be scraping coraline out of it more frequently because of that..

Nice fish!!!!

Thanks, not worried about coraline, I couldn't get that stuff to grow if my life depended on it

Thanks, trying to make this as clean and quiet a setup as possible, still lots of little things to do and then I will post pics of the details. No plans for corals right now but Marie has a giant anemone she wants rid of so we will see how that fares.
