haha, yea the camera might have overexposed the loclines.. I do get salt creep there, but I clean it off every water change.

Glad to hear your acans are rocking! Give us some more pics!!

I don't remember adding one of these guys to my 30G tank, and none of the rock is from my 75G, so I'm assuming he hitch hiked with the rock I used for this tank, but can't believe I have NEVER seen him before... but welcomed none the less...

FINALLY!!... Just got home with the tank, and of course it had to be -37C with a windchill today, it felt like insta-frostbite getting the tank from the back of fishytimes truck to my basement. (Thanks again Doug) Tank is sitting in my storage room thawing out right now.

Haven't decided if I want to do the transfer before or after Christmas. I leave on the 19th for BC for 10days or so. I got a knowledgeable tank-sitter, but don't really want to leave the responsibility of a fresh tank in their hands over the holidays.

Couple crappy pics... I apologize for the mess, I gotta make a few trips to the dump once the weather warms up.

Hope you guys approve.
