    Puffer, thanks...it took a lot of aquascaping but I am reasonably happy now. I have a Hammer that is at the fish store getting better as we speak. The only other coral I am really dying to get right now is a Bubble Coral. After that, maybe some Yellow Polyps and then I will just sit back and...

    Zev, A few suggestions for you if you are getting a reef tank. Get at least a 75 gallon, especially if you want tangs. Try to buy one that is wider than 12 inches, this will help you with Live Rock placement Before you buy any corals, buy a Skimmer. Make sure you buy enough powerheads to...

    Yellow Polyps started disappear one by one

    I had the same problem with mine. Honestly, besides super glueing each individual polyp that falls off back onto the rock, there isnt really much you can do. I only have one polyp left on my rock and I placed it up in a medium flow. What kind of flow is it in?

    Finally painted the back of my tank black

    find a smaller version of a roller. that is what i used and I probably only have 4 inches between the wall and my tank. just buy one of the real small cans of paint and you are set. probably wouldnt cost you $10 to do it
