Not a reef but a new set-up

It took me about 10 yellow colony polyps 15 or so green star polyps, 2 mushrooms, and 3 button polyps.

you are a highly resistant individual!

[MikeDeL]

No not really. That all came in on 5 lbs of rock I got from Jim Norris when he moved. Its all his fault, I should send him the bills. LOL

[Ram_Puppy]

LOL... I can do the same with my buddy Brian... I was thoroughly out of the hobby a couple years ago and he sucked me back in... funny thing is, I am the one who got him started.

And now you are working at a Pet Store and sucking in even more unsuspecting innocent victims!

I think the name of its the Jefferson St Bank, I'm behind it and Pep boys is beside it. Took a few pics will wait to post thought.
I've heard not to put aquarium too near a window, to late now How about when it only gets the late afternoon sun that the building doesn't block, seem to be no problems so far.

That's not necessarily true about windows with a reef tank. We call that free "kilowatts"

A lot of FW tanks don't have the filtration to handle the nutrient load and window light can encourage an algae bloom. In most SW tanks we have to be a little more aggressive about nutrient control.

We usually can't get enough light to do everything we want to do.

Gary I will send you our secretary, I was trying to catch a chevron once with no avail and our secretary walked up and the chevron just staired at her, so I put the net in and caught it easily like it was memorized?

Everyone must have normal jobs, as I've seen the post times. I'm still sleeping then, lucky me Thanks for the support and advice so far, I really do appreciate it. I work 2 to 10 so I get to see my fish run in terror and then feed like crazy, once I catch that D%^n damsel I'll sleep better though. A few more weeks and I hope to add my first real fish. We'll see from there.
