Anyone getting anything new for their tanks this week?
Have an order in with DustBowl for a "Wolverine Torch" and a Weeping Willow Toadstool. I have the website pics on my build thread. I'm supposed to meet with him during his drive down to a Frag show nearby on Friday.

I hope they get it soon! I'm hoping to go to the LFS tomorrow to see if they got anything I want in the order that arrived today.

Seems to take a lot of stirring to mix it well so I'm going to order these. I mixed 10 minutes with an electric wisk then 10 minutes by hand with a big spoon before it was somewhat clear like it said it should be in a video I watched.

This Thursday I'll be getting a glitter holy grail torch, 4 head hellfire torch, neon orange scoly, aoi dark blue zoa colony, and some hot pink acans. I ordered some aquarocks natural rock frag racks for them, hopefully I can find a way to add the torches so they look natural.
