Now I want to see a vid of this!

No you don't. Trust me on this one.

Sadly I can't find a simley with the little yellow man ripping his eyes out with a rusty fork, I think that would fit well here.

So I took some pics last night. The tank still looks like crap. I have had tanks for over 8 years and never had an algae problem until now; except the bubble algae when I gave my Vlamingi Tang to Sanjay for the Pen State tank. Anyway, this algae is stringy, brown and filamentous, which makes manual removal impossible. I am blowing it off the rocks each night and running filter socks to get as much out as possible. Enough about that nightmare, here's the pictures:

Too blue but…

As you can see the water is not very clear. I need to hook the O3 unit that is sitting on the shelf.

we have the same size tank but with that external overflow you really gained some realestate for scaping

It was there less than 5 seconds before I put it in the basket. I hit refresh and it was not there, I hit refresh again and there it was; no picture but it said Northwoods pink lemonade next to the little red x. They had to email me the photo.

Rik, aren't you worried all the Cap crap being too close might contaminate the tank somehow?

Looks like you suffer from the same issues I do with taking quality pictures. Must be the hockey hands?

In all honesty, its a super sick tank. The aquascaping I think is awesome and you'll probably find your self really happy with it once all the corals are in there homes. Keep up the good work!
