It's called egg crate and I got it at Lowes. comes in 2X4' foot peices for flourescent lighting. I also put it down in the tank first then my base rock and then sand. My rock work is really solid. The egg crate only cost me like 2$. It was a broken piece and they discounted way down for me. I used it in the sump to help hold the chaeto in. ***)

You can just ask for egg crate for flourescent lighting. We found it where industrial lighting stuff was.

This is what my tank looked like a month ago. I miss how clean it looked. Now my sand has some brown on it...the rock looks dirty...there's some algae on the back glass...(cause I only scrape the other 3 sides)..hmmm..hoping it will clean itself up..I have a big clean up crew, use RO water only, skimmer is skimming...*sigh* I love that new tank look.

[larryndana]

It's a Sony cybershot DSC H2. I really like it. It does way more than I'll ever use! I just use the automatic settings. Easy does it for me.
