Lookin' Good Scotty Boy!

Yes Scott the rubber washer needs to be between the overflow box and the glass. Should be an easy fix.

You might try a flat screwdriver and hammer

Is it a hex nut? Or a winged type?

Some pics from today. Green Chomis, O. Clowns, Coral Beauty

I might take you up on that Quills. PM me with the specs on the tank and a price.

It has been set up for a couple months. 2 ocellaris clowns, 1 coral beauty, peppermint shrimp. Small clean up crew until tomorrow when that order shows up. No sump, no refugium. Nothing fancy. Filstar XP3 can filter and hang on filter that I am not sure of the brand right now... 2 Koriolia...

I thought about that the other day when I saw an aquarium on the side of the road that a guy was selling for $5. Looked to be 30 gal or so, had a light, looked to be in good shape. Was going to go back an pick it up when I was headed home but totally forgot about it.

Replying to my own thread.... How sad... So I am thinking about a Yellow Watchman Goby

+1 on the coral beauty. but I am a newbie and biased.

Where in Texas are ya? I like your list, not the usual stuff most people start with. No percula clown, no blue hippo tang, etc.

SO far our tall 150 gal is humming along nicely. Thanks to all of y'all. Whether you know it or not most you have helped us in one way or another. We have a nice active sand bed with about 10 snails and a dozen hermit crabs, found some cool fireworms today too! We have about 40# of live rock...

They are back in the tank. As soon as they hit the sand they dug in and disappeared. Then, since my hands were already wet I rearranged the rockwork a little.

So I should put the little dudes back in the tank? Thanks for the info Bigarn!
