I have a lot of Yellow Fiji Leather, including a 2" piece that needs to go and maybe could even work out something on a bigger piece. Let me take some pics tonight and send to you to see what you think. Since you are in S. Austin, if you are interested maybe you can just come by and decide what you want.

I was happy to help and just glad that our community will have you back. I really like the aquascaping and wouldn't do anything differently with it as I look at it now. I can not see really well from the pics, but one mistake I made in my FOWLR was having the rock too close to the side glass that made cleaning the glass difficult. As long as you can magnet and scrape easy enough I like the way it looks. One suggestion I have, that probably fits into the category of either: (1) I should have said it sooner; or (2) you already decided it is not an option; is the location of the chiller. I have my chiller for the reef tank in the tank room similar to how yours is currently positioned. It draws constant complaints from my wife for adding heat to the room when it is running. It looks like you have easy access outside from the tank location and it might be worth plumbing through to keep it outside. For my FOWLR the chiller is in the garage and that has added to household accord. Can't wait to see the setup in person as you start stocking the tank. Talk to you soon.

I like the revised aquascaping. Having it clear out in the middle makes it look more natural to me and provides variation. Can't wait to see it once you start putting some corals in there.

Welcome back. Keep us updated as you put the system together.

I would recommend an Eheim 1260. Sometimes hard to find people selling them, but they are quiet and reliable.

I use Little Fishies PhosBan. Change it approximately every three months.

Do you have a pH controller? You do not absolutely need one, but it makes it easier. Also do you have a CO2 regulator? You will need one of those.

PM sent. I can help.

Aaron, I have some. Will trade for a frag of some acro that you have. I have a nice frag mounted on a disc that is about 3" high and about 2" wide, with three main branches and buds of about ten branches. I will get a pic sometime tonight it you like.

I will take the large blowpop rock pictured. Might grab a few others when I am there. Give me a call 925-3574 to set up a time that I can come over. Jason

This is true. I know that Geo and Schuran reactors can use the large media. Do not know what others are compatible (I have a Geo). Some like Koralin, etc. can only use the smaller media like A.R.M.

If you move to a slightly lower light area seeing the demarcation line should be easier.

If semperfimarine1 does not take the cleaner shrimp I will take him.

How is he doing? Is he taking out the hair algae as hoped?
