Tank & corals looks sweet Rick, I am hoping to be stocking mine by the end of the week

Awsome!!!!!!

thanks Tank and Chris.. i will probably rearange things a little bit..just letting the corals get used to new inviroment..

Rick

ok something has come up with my 30 gal display tank and i need to redo the tank.. so my nano is not going to be judged in the contest..as i have to put my coral frags from the display tank into the nano..and that would put me over my limit although all the corals were bought from a sponsor that would keep me under the 300 limit..i cant find all the reciepts for it and i dont think its fair..i will still do the contest with you all as its going to be fun i just dont want it judged.. good luck to everyone..
