Mark's 180 Starfire upgrade

Yep, the eyes on that piece are simply stunning
I have also made the decisions that I do not want to place anymore chalice frags on plugs. I like the way they look a lot better on rubble pieces when they grow out.

Nice piece!!!!!

Thanks Stacie, Its just so different than the majority of the pieces out there

Even though its a terrible picture, its proof that its still alive. It loves to cruise the caves and canyons.

And of course, my favorite two fish that just love the nikon

Thanks Jim, The dussumier acts a lot like a puppy. My wife laughs at me when I pet it when my hands are in the tank

I have been searching threads for plumbing ideas (fuge frag cube and return powered by a super dart gold from the sump...) for my new 150 Lee Mar and started reading your your posts. After the first mention of your daughter it clicked I just bought her frag from CFM. As I read more I can see where the name came from. 100 some posts later I skipped to the end to say that you have a beautiful tank a wonderful collection. I hope my build turns out half as nice as yours. Cheers

Talk about natural camouflage for the BT. Awesome. I would be too afraid to throw one in my tank with 3 large yellows and an XL purple roaming around

Thanks Kenny, The black tang loves to swim close to the corals and in and out of the rocks, Its is not very often when he swims up in the water column. I would also be a little skeptical of adding another zebrasoma to your established tank.
