    My male picasso passed, and my girlfriend replaced him with a platinum. New FTS

    So guess what I got... This is a breeding pair of true percs. The female was bought as an F1 or F2 picasso from ORA back before grading of picasso's where developed....I'll be breaking the two apart, and pairing the female with my male picasso....

    So I'm trying to expand the "watchability" of my tank. I'm talking fish, corals, inverts...whatever. Keep hitting a blank. Current stocklist of cleaner shrimp, clownfish, dwarf anglefish, sandsifting gobie, pistol shrimp....I think that's the major stuff. Suggestions everyone?

    Thanks guys. Always appreciate the comments. I'm gonna go another round with the hair algae manually, as wells as dropping a bag of chemi-pure in my media area. Since adding carbon, the GHA is getting more fraile. Also looking forward to finding some nice BTA's to fil out the right structure.

    The mangroves are gonna give way to some mini maxi's and a BTA, the sand bed will turn into an LPS bed, and when the BTA goes in, the flower pot comes out. Other than that the islands stay where they are. I originally wanted to go with a patch reef biotope, and keep to specific species within...

    This is the only recent pictures of the LEDs themselves. I've got the 2 heatsinks fairly spread apart in the tank right now since they will be sandwhiching a 70 MH And some of the new tank with a 2:1 ratio of blues to whites. I'm leaving this ratio till I can play around with color ranges...

    Bristle worms. I absolutely HATE the sight of them, but acknowledge that they are extremely beneficial to our tanks. Too bad I accidentally flushed him down the toilet. Oops

    Oh, and when I was moving the rock and livestock over to this tank, look what I found....

    I agree. I literally sit in front of the tank imagining how the aqua scape will look in a few months. Left structure for softies, right for a BTA, or vise versa dependent upon the BTA. LPS within the sand bed.
