Looks nice Matt. How is that egg create attached? What fish do you have? Is that a cave in the center.

the eggcrate is on a tunze magnet. (my 6025 died)
I have:
3 grn chromis (sm)
1 Vanuatu flame angel (md)
1 yellow headed Jawfish (sm)
1 royal gramma (md)

not really a cave in the rt. center just a shaded overhang...there is a cave in left center, but the grn/purple favia is somewhat obstructing its view.

thanx, I rarely get a decent close up, and that leather never cooperates when I have my camera out.. I just wish I had adjusted my white balance before I shot the pic!

Matt,

What's that to the right of the Yellow Finger Leather. It looks like a branching SPS.

I see the coraline starting to take hold of the glass.

Tom- this tank is 1.5 years old. I started it in June o6. Alot of it was transferred right from my nano, and the rock all was cooked, pre-cured or from a local reefer's tank. Its hard to tell, but there is absolutely no algae in this tank. All I get is amazing coralline.. I hate scraping!
