Well.. Its not much but it has come some what of a long way since I set it up. Here is a picture of it when I first set it up:

Here it is now:

The back keeps getting dirty and I can't reach it because the tank is too close to the wall. I just bought a coralife super skimmer 65 from a guy on reefcentral and I should have it in a couple days. When I get that hooked up I'll clean the back of the tank then. The tank is also having somewhat of a cyano problem but its going away. Back to the pictures!

I just picked some coral up from a local guy last night and its doing great:

Let me know what you think!

PS: Is that good, karazy?

Thanks for the replies guys!! Karazy, to answer your question, I haven't used anything to attach them so far, I just placed them in holes. Now on my peac0ck shrimp's tank I used super glue gel and make sure it is the gel. Thanks again everyone!

y does it have to be gel?

s13 · 01-27-2008, 06:56 PM

I'm not sure, I'm guessing so when you place the rock and coral back into the water it doesn't just lose its bond. It is what everyone suggested to me..

karazy · 01-27-2008, 08:20 PM

leveldrummer · 01-28-2008, 08:26 PM

you use the gel type because if it isnt gel, its just going to run into every nook and crany (especially the cranies) and you wont have any glue left, the gel is very thick and will stay where you put it, that is the only reason for using the gel.
