Awesome looking tank Alex! I like the way the squacape looks with the branch rock. So your using both skimmers. Hows that working out? Your water must be crystal clear! How do you like the greycoast sand? I was thinking of adding that to my fowlr.

Thanks you guys and gal.

Well the dobie pad and the squeegie can be found at wallmart, and a good lfs should sell the brillinize spray and scraper. Its easy if you stay on top of cleaning it, and getting in the corners with a an old plastic card.
Oh and the dobie pad just cut one end remove the sponge and slide the magnet in. It works really well.

Great photos! Tank looks like it's coming along nicely...

I think Carl is going to be mad at you for giving away his secrets...lol

I always check the junk mail for the fake plastic credit cards they sometimes send...they make great scrapers! And you can cut and bend them to fit kent procrapers. Free and disposable!

Thanks!
I didnt learn that from carl if he was keeping that a secret how did you know? LOL
Alot of people use them. Actually a guy at AD told me thats what he used on his own tank. Thats where i was first told that.
Anywho
Yes i love the greaycoast, Its the best sand i have had. Not to light to see dark crap and not to dark to see light crap.
Its still a year away from looking decent.

The skimmers are working great! The ATI is running a tad wet and the DAS is running dry. I get the best of both worlds, and when my nem spawns i dont see anything, Only white junk in the skimmer. It is overkill but better to skim heavy than light. JMO

I have waited so long for it to look somewhat decent. Its been 7 mos of agony looking at a tank with brown sps. I't got so i didnt want to let people come over and see it.
