havent decided what I'm going to keep, but I've made up my mind that there will be no fish in this tank. the corner tank with the fresh in it will be converted pending the death of those fish in the coming years, and when that happens, this tank will probably go more towards a balanced reef, but for now it is gonna be a coral/invert heavy tank.

Still undecided about SPS, but since there will be no fish, bio load minimal, i may have to go that route because the tank might be too clean. I def. have the light for it, so...again up in the air.

I broke down and bought a fish. My wife sat there and talked to brian and i had no say, and we went home with a coral beauty and i must say i love her. Ill get a picture up when she decides to stay out of the rock long enough.
