Marvin I would say that you have a light bio-load with the volume of water you have....
cool... so, should I expect a lot of junk to be pulled out by the skimmer? I feed once a day with a cube of mysis and a cube of enriched brine... on other days, I feed flakes and spectrum pellets...

Oh.... and I set it up wide open on the day we set up the tank. ;) Didn't want it to overflow as it was an unknown at that point.

Few fish = little skimmate. MORE FISH and the skimmer has something to do. ;)

trying out the cheap-o Underwater digicam my wife bought...

FujiFilm FinePix Z33WP... camera doesn't really take the best pics but it'll do for now... we're just looking to get a camera that will be okay to use while Evin is young... it's waterproof, sandproof, and dustproof so we can use it everywhere Evin plays outdoor...

btw, most of the corals are still acclimating to the new system... I'm hoping they'll color up even more in the next few weeks... :)

Thanks Steve... not quite your collection but it'll have to do for now... ;)

yeah, I guess it's a little stressed out still but I'm happy it's looking like it'll be fine though... just need some time to color up... :)

size comparison between Orig ME and RSC Rainbow for those who wanted to know... although the RSC Rainbow is about 1" closer to the glass, you get the idea... I will stick a ruler next time I shoot 'em... shot's taken under (1) 22k AquaScience & (1) ATI Blue+ T5's... :)
