    Re-scapped the tank yesterday, pics to follow. Have some small algae issues after my latest opps and cycle also some diatoms. Pics to follow soon. Also plan on cutting out one of my return pipes to open up a valley view of the aquascape.
    Anyone can grow Zoa's and LPS I have some in my sump.

    You should do the retuns in clear PVC

    Thanks tried to catch up with you at the lansing swap, but you were swamped everytime I was around your table. Perhaps see ya at Ann Arbor.

    Algae would quickly build inside them under the lights. I am removing the front return though as it will improve the aqua scape look of the new design.

    The clean up crew has been doing its job well, 60% of the hair algae is now gone, a couple more weeks and I should be all set.

    Some of the SPS are regaining some of there color. Also starting to see some color in a couple Aussie brownout frags. Will be interesting to see how they shape up.
