ok last night and today i have new fish and my first coral into the tank!!!!!!
it's nothing too special but i have a T-hammer coral and 3 frags of some i have no idea as the saltwater assistant was on a day off so i'll ask tomorro if i can.
but have a yellow tail midas blenny who has settled in very well. kind of wierd as i type i'm watching and the angel seems to be playing and swimming with it.. the angel likes nobody so this is a nice insight and fun.
also just an info bit before i take pics the Hammer coral was damaged and was looking very very ill/under the weather so i was given half price also it has a quater missing from a few months ago when it was torn apart as the lfs put it in with a trigger....... yup some people have no clue but this mornin it has colour and looking very alive next week i'll be buying a pulsating xenia hopefully the blue pom pom...
well pics will be up today not sure when as i'm busy setting up wifes suprise birthday party for monday

als this was the so called no chance to keep alive over 1 day coral i took from the lfs. (a good bit of tlc and plenty of the right lighting and waiting it looks 10X better then i did when i baught it a least now the tenticals of the T-Hammer have started to reech out btw the part missing on the right they put a trigger with the invert tank this was the last servivor so to me it was destined for me lets hope 1 day it will grow back there or spread there again....

201cm = about 80"
50 cm = about 20"
75 cm = about 30"
So......
80*20*30=48,000
48,000 / 231 = about 208 gallons.
So if he was giving outside measurement he probably has about 200 Gallons I would guess.
