Here's some pics since the tank has cleared up. Still not aquascaped yet, Just not cloudy anymore.

Thanks. I am a little anxious myself to get the aquascaping done but with 250# of Live Rock in a 120G tank there is not much room to work. I'm going to have to get a rubbermaid tub and fill it with saltwater to place rock in while we arrange things.

My wife does the aquascaping.....She's is SOOO much better at it then I am. I get the hard part.....Keeping the girls away from her while she does it.

Maybe in a few days it will be done and I'll post more pics then.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Keri & Louise

Reefneck - Just pointing not criticising. I understand all about getting things wet. I suppose having two tots make thing difficult (I wouldn't know snce I's got no young 'uns). Then again I would've pushed on with my Diatom Filter hooked up sucking all the floaties until the job was done (again no obligations to smack the kids around ). Other than the few coals getting might close it looks good.

Default UPDATED PICS OF THE 120G with the lights wired up
Taken this evening after getting the MH's and T5 Actinics wired up and working. The halides were on for about 3 hours and everything perked right up. These pics were taken with only the T5 actinics on. Enjoy. Rock work is still to be done so hang on for more to come.

It's looking terrific, Keri!!

What LFS did you used to work at? Was it that one on Main Street, Pet Creations? That seems to be the only decent LFS I know of around here.

Nice avatar, BTW.

Thanks.

I did at one time work for Pet Creations but there are way too many Chiefs and not enough Indians there. I left there within one month of starting.

No, It's not Reef safe. I put it in a FOWLR that had a Dog Face Puffer in it and boy, You should have seen the fight. lol
