i work at a pet store in San Diego and on our new set up we decided to put a large fuge on top of it. what started out as just a fuge turned more into a display tank. feel free to ask any questions or give any comments.

Wow! That looks really nice. I like the mixture of greens and reds, it makes it look very natural flowing. I wish we could get that halymenia here. I have never seen it.

Keep it up, and keep us posted on how it turns out in a couple months after the growth sets in.

PS- Whats the lights/wattage on the lights?

Ask your LFS for the Haly. It's quite common, although you have to talk to someone that knows macros. They're oftenly just called "red macro on rock" or something like that. As nice as it'd be for things to "fill in" I'm actually looking to keep the growth down through trimming and selling here. I don't want anything to take over. They Halymenia is already getting close. I have to trim the fast growing macros to give the slow growing ones enough light. The lighting is 4x65W 10,000K PCs.
