count on spending a good deal of time at a couple hardware stores, it always seems difficult trying to find what will screw into what. silicone helps also. simon was a HUGE help for me when if got started, he's great.

New Pics of Tank
http://community.webshots.com/album/548070327iTZUVB
Enjoy the pics, and let us know what you think.  Over the weekend we purchased an Orange Skunk Clown pair {one is out and around, the other seems to be hiding}, a Purple Tang, a Kole Tang {again, in hiding}, and a Potters Angel.
Now if all of our fish would just come out of hiding, things would be great! Some of our current fish are hiding and some aren't, guess we will have to see how things go.
Hopefully in a few days everyone will be out and interacting.....
Now on to getting the 125 set back up as a Fresh Water tank!
