Quick update on the tank. I've added a pair of carpenters wrasses but can't get them to sit still to get a decent pic. also added quiet a few corals.

It's 1/4". The guy that cut it said he originally tried 3/16" but thought it would be too flimsy. Tried adding a pic of it but for some reason the button isn't working...

clean setup man. Love it. Are you using some sort of router to connect to the apex to your network wireless? What model netgear is that? I need to get one hook up for my apex. PM me please! :)

this coral, what is it? My LFS has a frag that looks like this but the guy working at the time couldn't tell me what it was... Ya, learned today that I can't ask any questions because they won't know...

Got a couple of new additions...gold maxima and a green spongodes. The guy I got the spongodes from said he's been getting insane polyp extension which totally block the base of it from any light and caused it to lose it's bright green color. Hopefully in my tank it'll get more light.

well...yeah...I've been meaning to take some pics to show growth and some new peices but have just been lazy! I actually just finished cleaning the glass and a water change so it's a little cloudy right now. I'll try to get some tonight or tomorrow and post.
