Where did you put the frag if there's no water in the tank?

90 gallon won't be easy, but if you plan it out properly it shouldn't be too much of a headache.
Wish I could figure out the multi quote thing

I JUST figure it out, litterally my last post. Look where the "quote" button is, and right to the left of it, it says "multi"
Click "multi" on all the posts you want to quote and on the last one hit quote and all of them show up.
I think I have it pretty well planned out but its still iffy at best if you know what I mean

Heres a bit of an update.
Nothing really happened with the nano over the last few weeks, got it filled up and some of he rockwork done but all ym time has been devoted to moving over the 95g main tank.
No casualties!

I also got a clown tang intoduced and a tamarin wrasse introduced as well. A naso will be introduced into the 95 within the next month.
I just got the light hung for the nano and its cycling now.
Sorry for crappy cell pics.

Okay, heres a little bit of an update, the nano is finally cycled and ready for some stuff, but i still need some sand a CUC.
I also picked up my frag pack from a local guy. He hooked me up with:
Scarfaces
Darth Mauls
Mary Janes
Bloody Marys
Sunny-D's
Emeralds on fire
Sistine Chalice
Soon to be released as a LE Tyree, Tropicana Twist Chalice
Sucker punch chalice.
Most are 1 polyps but the sistine chalice and the emeralds on fire had more heads, the sistine has 2 eyes and the emeralds on fire had 3 polyps.
Hopefully ill get pics up tonight

Nope, no pics yet as im still waiting on some sand for the tank. I did however put a frag of spiderman zoos into the nano and they are doing good, i have it on minimum light and i think it may still be too much,
