Very nice. Looking good. I am also in the process of setting up my first reef. Deciding on what rock to buy. Here is a link to my setup thus far.

dosterd, I like your aquascape. What are the dimensions of your 30G tank?

BTW, I second sknlim's (assumed) tongue in cheeck remark. This is the time to get rid of that aptasia before it spreads and becomes a real nuisance.

Dosterd,

Nice set-up so far, I think that maybe your rock was at GSP when I picked up my rock! Hummmm...I could have had some more nice rock!

Good job!

SandFlea, no I did not see the beginning of you tank. At least I don't believe that I did. I was going to post a picture of my tank but my Kodak software has the best of me. When I get a little more time I will post one or maybe email you one.
