2nd try

Hey Nanook !!

WOW man amazing, spectacular, fantastic, beautiful, outstanding. I love the black sand. Very cool. Probably won't attract algae, and colors will look better against it too.
Absolutely great vision and work! How much are tickets to get in and see it, or will Scotch do it? It is the full monty.

Thanks for the compliments, Mitch Scotch always works for me!!!

I need to order a box of corals from you in the near future! I have been waiting for my stimulus package which should be here in July.

Mitch at www.livestockusa.org has been trying to give me some rock for some time but I have been too stubborn to take it. Since Tonga is being shut down he wanted to make sure I got some rock on his dime. As you guys know, a lot of my rock I got on that first 600lbs was kind of boulder-ish, but the life has been very good.

He sent me a box of Tonga Fusion rock a few months back and now here is 154 pounds of Tonga Eva and Vavau rock that he just sent me today. Mitch felt really bad that the rock that was shipped to me the first time was not what his guy had set aside. Apparently someone pulled a fast one and I got rocks that were pretty round. Anyway, he more than made up for it with this latest shipment. Here are some pictures of rock he sent me:

Awesome looking!
Though I don't come over for hand-size awesome shaped rocks. I only come over for 30lbs man shaped rocks with especially sharp edges!

Just stumbled across this thead... really wonderful setup. I've been dreaming up something similar for myself, but need to build a new house to accommodate. It's fine to build a house around an aquarium, right?

Nook,

Very well planned and executed. The black sand really makes those rose anemone's pop. Well done :thumbsup:

I put all 166lbs of liverock in the cube tank...you can see the difference as it is stark white from no light for the last three weeks.
