Enya? Really? ENYA?

Is there a problem?

You don't need a reason. Let the day go on and on.

Finally got the corals I bought several months ago placed where I wanted and glued. I hope they do well where I have them. My vision is to have zoa's and paly's all over the rock work with taller corals placed here and there. Not sure if it will work but I think it will look great if it does.

And a few more pictures because why not.

Here's some updated pictures and a video for you guys. Not much has changed I have lost a few corals but the remaining ones seem to be doing ok.

Oh my goodness. Im realizing this is my first time see the whole tank and all the inhabitants. I had no idea how awesome your reef was! If I had a big tank, my rockwork would look so similar to this. I love the rise and fall look of the aquascape. The movement up top is gorgeous, nice work Amanda dear!

Thank you so much! I think I rearranged the rocks at least 100 times before I was satisfied. Lol

You are a genius my friend! I can't believe I haven't thought of that!!!

We had just had a long discussion about clean up crews on the Smorgasbord thread.

Enya? Really? ENYA?

I was like, "Is she really listening to Enya while recording this video?"
Then the music stopped and I was like, "Oh, thank goodness for that!"
Then the sound of what sounded like some creepy guy whispering started and I was like, "Please put Enya back on."

But, seriously and secretly, I own all of Enya's CDs. Well, I used to until I uploaded all of them to my digital library and got rid of the CDs.

This is classic Chris right here. Tear her down just to bring her back up huh?

Sample conversation with Chris.


Chris:

"Hey I hope you get hit by a bus today, John."

But I hope it's a bus that just dropped of $10 million dollars to your family!"


"And I hope the bus was made of cotton candy....."

I hated that part. I found fault in everything I made. Finally I just left it and walked off

I saw those for the first time when I bought my fish last week. I was wondering if they looked like their pictures. After seeing yours, they obviously do! I need one now lol
