heller792 · 07/12/2008, 07:24 AM

Just want to say thanks for all the advice you have all given me to get to where I am today ( THANKS GUYS ). Today I checked all my parameters and everything is at zero so I guess Im there. Ive only been in the hobby since January and I only set this tank up 6 weeks ago. I just wish someone had told me how addictive this hobby was.

Any recommendations would be welcome.

Beautiful. But trust me, its NEVER "finished".

Nice work! Nice corraline algae growth on the rocks. Have you identified the "green stuff" (macroalgae?) near the top of the tank? I don't recognize it but I'm sure someone will. Is it something that may spread where you don't want it to?

6 weeks? slow down killer... dont crash it!

I know what you mean by never fnished. Zestay, all the stock came from my old tank including live rock so I was halfway there with the cycle. I had to sell my old tank to fund this one so I had to move them over. The tank is under stocked anyway and i have not lost anything over the last 6 weeks.

would be great if someone could tell me the name of the macroalgae next to the pulsing xenia. I am also doing well with 10 frags of xenia and 4 frags of plating montipora.
