waterfaller1,
Thank you very much! After cutting the grass (in the heat & heavy humidity) I was a little thirsty myself!
Old Yeller Tang,
Thank you very much! When I got that m.digitata it was almost completely brown (you can see a very small hint of purple at the tips). It has really colored up under my halides. Per your question I am running 2 -250w 10K Ushios on a PFO standard MH ballast and 2 - 110w URI VHO Super actenics on a Icecap 660 balast.
This what the Monti looked like when I got it. I beleive the former owner had it under PC lighting.

Cool! I am very happy with my lights! How do you like your Euroreef Skimmer? I am hoping that with some birthday money I will be ordering one in September!

Thanks Mike!
I will see you tomorow at Mike & Rich's Tank tours and we can talk about your 150 then! I can't wait until you get it running!
NaCL-Man,
Thank you very much! The Bi-Color Blennie is one of my favorite fish as well. He is totally non-aggresive but I have a Blue Damsel (1st saltwater fish I ever bought to cycle my tank) that tries to bully other fish. He no longer messes with the Blennie because the Blennie just goes ballastic and kicks the Damsel's a$$ if he messes with him! Here is another shot!

Roland,
Glad to hear you like the EuroReef Skimmer! I have heard many great things about them! I can't wait to get mine!
Sorry to hear that your Blennie went on such a rampage! That stinks when you think you are getting a nice addition to your tank and it turns out to be bad! Fortunately I have mine in my LPS & Soft coral tank. In there he has been a model citizen. The only thing he bothers is the Damsel if he is being aggresive. Here is another shot of him with my Neon Goby (taken a few seconds befor the pic above). I know that sometimes similar species don't get along but to my amazment these two actually hang out together all the time! I guess I got lucky and just got a mellow one!

Sure do like those digitatas....all of them would look good here in New Mexico!!!I've got a decent one that has done fiarly well...but the coloration of mine is reddish/brown....and I seriously need to up-grade my lighting before I attempt any more SPS type corals. You guys just keep on posting pics though ... it gives me something to work towards!!!
PS: Roland it is great to see you around again....haven't seen you here for a while....

Hey Mark,
Very nice pictures! I esspecially like the Blenny and your purple M. Digitata! Your tank seems to be filling up quite quickly now (and great coralline coverage) :)
BTW- Did you get the email I sent you?
