So I got my overheating problem solved with the cpu computer fans and wanted to get going today. I dropped in to see marcye (shouldnt she spell it marsea?) Picked up 7lbs of live rock, some water and some live sand. There was some question as to if I got the right kind of sand or not...turns out not. But when I got home I saw a post by Navymedic (mike) for cheap liverock and sand. I didnt really need any more liverock, but did need some more sand so I headed over to see what he had. Mike is the greatest, hooked me up with plenty of sand, some live rock, some barnacles, and a few little softies (figured it was worth a try). So by the end of the day, a little bit from here and little bit from there and LOTS of great info later and heres the result.

a few more pictures, I have no idea what these are at this time. Mike told me, but I just cant remember crap like that unless I write it down.
