OK So now you have seen it.. Give it to me.. what have I done wrong, what should be changed, and well just what do you think.

The lighting is 4 VHO 60 inch tubes and 3 250W MH.
Also, I want to thank the many people on here who have stocked the tank with my $$
and your frags
..
SWF.com, Mr_X, namas05, otley 1975, Flricordia, Several LFS's and a few oline sites.

looks good rich!
if you want those rocks to purple up at all, i'd get rid of that urchin. i would also invest into atleast 2 koralia 4's.

Ahh, Mr. Spikey is keeping the Purple down... I would, my fingers would love it, (he has got me 3 times) but my kids would kill me...
I agree, the 2 Koralia 4's are on the list, been watching for a good price, but you keep taking all my $$...

I just added the 2 Koralia 4's and well... Holly Flow Batman..
Kicked up all kinds of stuff into the water. It's all going down the overflows now and looking better but... no less the 5 kenya tree babys blew out from behind one rock.. so I think I am good to go here Namas05.. Thanks

I do not have any updated pics yet but I will try to get some soon.
I have spent a bunch of time reading about Kalkwasser Drips, and Calcium Reactors. After all the reading I am still not sure what I am going to do. Still Learning.
