I had the chance to take a few pics tonight, and just one FTS for you fiends, josh and stacey but there might be another at the end.



the left hand side is full of cords, and i havent gotten around to getting them all neat again, lots of moving cords and extensiton cords, due to a breaker breaking and then lossing power for a half hour a few days ago.











and also, i removed the table acro from my over flow, as it was starting to get heavy and moved it to the left side, and then moved some from the left side over. I will get a better pic once everyone settles in.

Hey Canreefers, hope everyone is having some good holidays and getting ready for the boxing day LFS specials.

I am enjoying some time off work now as the restraunt is closed for a few days now.

Dez (Des) was down from edmonton and had the chance to drop by my place to check out the tank after a bit we hit up golds as they got some new SPS in. i picked up a few cool pieces, 2 monits a purple and green and a baby blue stag, i will post pics in the next little while.

along with (fingers crossed) a pic of the crab or shrimp that i am trying to catch, so i got a pyrex measuring cup and i placed it in the tank along with two reef discs with some nori and crushed dry food and a few pieces of brine shrimp sandwiched in the middle. its in the tank now, and the lights are off, so well see if there is a catch in the morning.

Tank looks really great how often do you do water changes and how much if you don't mind me asking?

Hey John tank looks awesome but I expected nothing less. This is going to be a stupid question from a beginer SW but........ what is the purpose of the carbon? I have asked several different people what all should be in the sump and the only answer i really have received is some sponge to catch larger debri. You put it in your filter sock I am guessing. I know it is highly nessesary in FW have used it for years.
