haha yes guitar hero III is amazing.....
well for stock im not quite sure on what i plan on doing
all i know is that the tank will be dominated with sps....calcium reactor on order!

i plan on doing a school of candy stripe cardinals, maybe a powder blue tang or a mustard tang, or a regal angel, or a bristletooth tang!? tons of shrimp gobies, longnose hawkfish is a must....a pair of yellowhead jawfish, and a few damsels here and there probably the ones i have now will be it
as for the coral it will be mainly sps.....a few shrooms and ricordeas...hardly any softies or lps
the grouper is alive and well back at my work in the system only needed him to get jump started on the cycling before i ordered the rock....i would never be able to get him out with the rock in anyway
