No Problem Ruben. BA Ive decided to go Softy reef so im doing away with all my invert and coral eaters. So basically all im keeping in my Christmas wrasse. Which meens im pretty much starting from scratch. Want to do a group of something. Was thinking of 3 or 4 Yellow tangs; maybe a group of Square anthias. Havnt really decided.

Take your time and do it right. You know Ace is the man to contact for a Calflow and drilling. You may also want to talk to him about the stand. As for sand and rock you will want to remove it all and put in what ever water tight contianers you have. Run a pump or something in them to keep the water circulating. I did not do this and had some die off, but the critters that died were mostly fire worms so I was not to concerened. My copepods are all still alive and busy. As for fish I pretty much sold everything because I want to start from scratch and go with smaller fish to establish more of a community since I am going reef. You will want to move them into something large enough and again provide pumps etc... Rock work is all you and your imagination. I was thinking of doing foam but did not want my rock out of water that long because I obviuously did not want to kill all my pods etc... the foam takes hours to cure. I did make one platform from eggcrate but everything else is rock just stacked in a way to make it look pleasing and not like a stack of rocks.


Id be glad to give you a hand when you start doing all this. Doing it on a weekend and I will make time to be there. Just let me know and I will make sure I dont have anything planed.
