Last night I noticed that I had a good amount of algae growing in my little grotto area in my display so I had to rescape everything... assuming it was a flow issue. So i moved everything around and scrubbed off some algae.

The live rock is very far in the back of the tank to add some area up front. What I didn't do is I didn't float my rock on anything. Some of it is laying directing on the sand. Previously I had everything up off the sand except for several very small pieces of live rock (which acted like piers). Do you see any problem with that ? I am not as happy with the new arrangement as flow is going to be difficult under the rock and behind so chances are good that I will he redoing the rockscaping again tonight. The pieces of LR I have are odd and i wish I had the cash to purchase some new different pieces. I have almost all fiji but would love some tonga or something with a bit more definition.​
 
I'll be setting my rock directly on the glass bottom and then filling in the sand around the rock.
 
So basically the same as me in that the lr will be in direct contact with the sand with no space between the two... very good. Upon further reflection and a night's worth of sleep I like the layout as it is...so I will leave it be.
 
haha. My wife was on the computer all last night. We had to close our studio location (just wasn't bringing in any business) but we are looking at a new location in downtown tulsa that is really pretty amazing. So she was doing business plans, etc. all night long... priorities I guess. lol. i am replacing most of my coral tomorrow so I will wait to unveil until tomorrow then you can see it in all its glory. hahaha.
 
LOL, wife is doing the work on business plans for bank approval and you're messing around with your tank!!!

Life must be good ;) Can't wait to see some pics.
 
man, she won't let me near the business plans... I am strictly grunt labor... (other than I do shoot some sessions if she is doubled up). She knows better than to let me play with the books... "really, we do need a fish tank for the studio... i think a 300 gallon reef tank would be about the right size...honestly, we can write it off on our taxes as a business expense... I promise!" Yeah, she won't let me near the books (she actually hides the check book as well, lol.)
 
Hmm, if you are serious I would be willing to part with my reef tank. I have been wanting to settle down with a smaller tank for awhile till the kids leave the nest and I can build an in-wall tank in one of the bedrooms.
 
man I wish. But, out of curiousity.... pm me what you would want for it... what time do you want to meet tomorrow. I have some more stuff for ya...
