Finally got my LR. It's FULL of LR at this point and I'm not sure like that exactly. It caused a bit of a
diatom bloom, but the fis & shrimp didn't seem to mind. The
macro algae is getting much bigger in the front of the tank, I like the contrast the green makes.
Jake (sorry, forgot your handle!), a fellow reefer here in Portland was kind enough to donate some xenia, a finger leather and some pretty red shrooms. I also got a new camera that will arrive soon so I'll post pics next week when it arrives.
So far it has been stable & healthy. The added 14 gallons over my little 10g has made a huge difference in terms of stability. My temps continue to be high at around 80-81 with the MH & glass top, but I haven't seen any ill effects from that.
