Fragged a couple tips from the 5 gallon. This is the only good picture.

Purple Stylophora - took 3 small frags
Also grabbed a couple of Red Digitata tips but they're mad right now and refusing to open.

Ok, bring on the haters...

I'm thinking realllllly hard about ordering a rabbitfish. Not just any old Rabbitfish though, a Biota Golden Lined Rabbitfish. They say 6 foot tanks are good for them. I know I may run into trouble down the road and have to re-home it but...

Get it I have a 6ft and I can take it when it gets too big. I have a Vlamningi in a 180. They say 310 minimum. Haters gonna hate.

Ok, so I paid $6 including shipping for the corals (don't tell @billyocean but I won a gift card), then I paid $60 for the salt and test kit (got a great deal on the salt, but my wife still doesn't know I ordered it - she'll figure it out when it arrives today?) so do I order the $65 cleanup crew I told her I was getting when it cools down or do I order the $57 clean up crew fishes that I told her I was eventually getting after the 125 was set up? I can't order both right now but I might be able to get away with the fish and then the CUC in a couple of weeks... Probably after my daughter's hunt would be a great time.

I've got an odd feeling that the salt will not be here today. Scheduled for delivery before 10pm but hasn't been picked up yet.

The phosphate test was dropped off at USPS yesterday early afternoon but the Post Office still hasn't decided if they've accepted it or not... It's only 6 hours from my house. Road trip???

I haven't seen them yet. The sale started today but I'm at work. If there's one tomorrow it's a good possibility I'll grab one. Unless the salt shows up and my wife decides she's mad at me...

I want a 10' tank. But, none of my house is propper territory for it.
I think if I got rid of the 75 and the cabinet on the other side of the 125 I could squeeze a 10' in. That wall is probably 10' 4" or so. Perfect spot? I'd just have to figure out moving the 125 out to get the other one in.
