the cam I am using now is not the best. This Thursday I will barrow my moms so I can get you guys some real nice ones which can show you the true color of everything. that hammer is growing uber fast to. oh hehe and then all though its a bird I took a pic yesterday of a humming bird sitting on my finger!

Thank you, I think it looks a million times better then how i had it before. no I just sit it on the PBC and use rocks to hold it down. i haven't had any problems yet ( knock on wood. ) with it floating off or breaking down.

It was a killer carpet but my clowns never played or even went near it then it also took up SO much room! lol. Sunday we went threw 14 quarts of food for the little suckers! The LTA is on the move
hopefully it will just move down a little and stay.... ugh these things can be a pain in the A$$....
I tried to feed it, would not take the shrimp i got but my frogspawn grabbed it and ate it all! guess it was hungry!

So good news
an bad
This morning I got my new anemone to eat half a shrimp and then the old one ate a peace as well which it has NEVER done for me before
and now is fully open hopefully she is now on the road to recovery.
She has moved down to the sand bed and seems quite happy.
Now is fully open and is gaining a little color on the back side, ( I use to be able to see all the way threw her !!
I also got this awesome shot of my clam all though you can see the BTA pooping the shrimp.
also with all of the polyps out I used a flash so its kinda color faded

I have not been on in a week or two, due to work being out of control and also with my 2nd baby ( 3000GT VR4 ) getting a tune up.
I just got a new MH, went from the 14k 150W to a 20k 150W, I am seeing how I like it.
so here are some updated pic's oh and my BTA that I have been nursing is now got almost full color on the foot and back!!!
now just to work on the tentacles....
Also I moved a PH so it blows on my harry mush's they are loving it!!! I have never seen them get this big!!

update 9/07/08
So I have been MIA, of work and the car =/ So I have not had much time to work on my tank.
I took my maroon pair of clown fish back to my LFS. The female was being way to aggressive towards my bta and when I tried to feed it she would pull the sliver slider out and spit it on the other side of the tank.
I also had a problem with the aqua scape and had a rock slide.
so Its redone but looks better to me this time! I also had to add a filter box to my tank due to micro bubbles
I am wondering if I should try to frag some Xenia on it or something else? any idea's
My octa frog has gown double in size. my LFS wanted 135$ for one the same size!!!
I am glad I grabbed the one I did from the 10$ frag tank when I did!
also my hammer and xenia has also split off as well.

I just got done testing water and everything is great! I only had to add a some cal. I got new sliver sliders to day I cant remember the last time I got my old ones so I threw them out.
just gave one to the bta. lta? anyway she looks very happy !!
I think its about time to frag that frogspawn again! ( i just moved the large FS so its not completely open )
Clowns still aren't hosting the bta
I think they need to get a little older before they will.. I know they would perf a carpet but I just don't have the room.
I have some mush's that just started growing in my tank I didn't even add them but they are pretty cool not sure what the name of them are my cam just cant get the right color on it. They are a green face with pink bubbles coming off everywhere I really like them I hope they will split by themselves.

update as of 10 / 06 / 08 life's been crazy with balloon fiesta here ugh!!! i'm working 12 days straight... so pretty much the walking dead here haha. My anemone decided it wanted to change home, it moved to the front of my tank next to my claim... that's a big no no for it, so I placed it up on my rock work and it seems very happy ( as of now ) I think it moved because I usually feed it every 3-4 days but I was on 5 or 6. My clowns are now hosting in it I am very happy about!
I just feed her to day and she scarfed down the sliver slider fast!! so I am thinking about bumping the feeding up to every 2 days and see how that goes.
Frog spawn is still growing like mad.. I think I have a little garden of it going now.
I am having problems with my Cal its at 300 PPM and I cant get it to go up. I am adding Reef complete Calcium but seems to not help =/ ( even tried a new test kit )
not saltwater related i am selling my 3000gt, and looking for for a 07 WRX STI. Also that has been talking up much of my time.
I am trying to naturally frag off some Xenia for the new tank!
and pic of the new tank, I used some live rock from my main tank along with some water.

I like your style, 07 is a nice year to have. I had a 05 and loved every minute of it, it was very fun, easy to mod, and reliable enough to be a daily driver. Can't go wrong.
Any questions on them just ask.
