Hutch you have a gorgeous tank and it's nice to find another CU fan!!! I was raised in Seneca, or at least 17 years of it. Moved there when I was 3, and can say I have been a Clemson fan my whole life! I wish they would of done better this season after how good we did last year, oh well there is always next year and harper and ellington, along with parker should just get better and better. That is if parker doesn't take off to the MLB on us! We just need a receiving core and we'd be awesome. I don't know what we would do without our defense.

Yes, maybe we can get things on track soon. I graduated in '96 and have missed being there ever since! Should be interesting to see what happens this weekend, regardless of seasons, this game could go either way.

Yes it could, as always the CU, USC game can and will go either way, even with the season USC is having. Although Clemson has enjoyed coming out on top the past several years (I think 4 in a row right?). I hate to say it, but I think SC has our number this year. Spurrier has finally got his troops together after all the visor throwing and yelling he could muster :lmao:

The tank is looking great Hutch... take more pics of the SPS corals. Then you will have comparisons for the future. More pics please :rollface:
I really like that arch on the left island. Are you planning on relocating any of the rocks/corals on the sand bed in between the islands?

Thank you! Yes, I am planning on removing / relocating the stuff between the islands as soon as I get the frag tanks online. I think I just want to clean that area up between the islands and give the SPS some room to grow.

I hope this helps. I use a Canon DLSR with a 100mm Macro lens.
Thank you! Me too! :dance:

Hutch - How well are those 65 gal tanks in your ro/di area supplying your setup? I am curious to know if you think they large enough considering evaporation, water changes, etc. or would you go a little larger? Also, is the top tank for ro/di and the bottom for salt mix - I am trying to track your plumbing. Thanks for sharing your setup - it's great.
