Cranky? Me??? No, that's my wife. I am like a fresh Summer breeze coming off the ocean in the morning. Sainthood is where I am headed.

And now I am at the store...

It is hard to believe that is the contents of a 1000g tank. It looks smaller to me for some reason.

Nice to see some corals at last. I think we had to wait a little too long. What you don't realize is the only reason we ask for them so often is to help you avoid excessive coralline buildup. The more often you have to clean the glass for those photo-op moments, the less time it has to take hold. :)

:lol: and as you can see, I have about 1/2 of one end clean Marc! :rolleyes:

It's hard to tell from the photos the size of everything and I was thinking about that during pic selection. When you are standing there, everything looks so much bigger. The fish are actually quite large, but in the pics they look like babies. The average fish size is about 8 inches.

Look at the shot with the right pane in view. The gap between the spray bar and the glass is 8". Corals are still recovering so the color is not that great, but things are looking up. When Sherman and I vacuumed, I pulled out an enormous pile of detritus that to the casual observing would have looked liek a DSB, but there was never any sand in that area.
 
I take that back...must have been my male mind doing the thinking, but the average size of the fish in my system is actually about 6".
 
Hey man, I'm not that old...but to have a nap, oooohhh, that would be golden! :lol: I am going to take one now!
 
crap. no time right now to figure it out...when I right click they show up, but when I go to the host page, they don't seem to be loaded. When I publish them they seem to go through correctly.
 
well, at least it's not me eh? :rolleyes:

Went to Barrier Reef today and picked up some corals. replaced the ORA German tort I just killed, and got a couple others I don't need.
