thanks for the info mark :)

No problem. IO try to keep things pretty simple. I do play around with some things, but for the most part I do what is proven to work.

I have been mixing my salt mixes for some time even though there are many people that have told me that it is wrong to do.

So, for a parting thought...........

Yes this tank looks this good, if not better in person. We are very fortunate to have many skilled Reefers in our area, and Mark is among these people. Mark kills me with the colors he is able to get in his tanks. I describe them as being on the ragged edge of saturation, he is able to get not only the hard to get purples and reds.....but the little highlight colors than sometimes are faded out in other tanks. All of that with some amazing polyp extension.

None of this comes easy though, I for one know how passionate and dedicated to the hobby he is and won't be one of those that goes quietly into the night like so many others. I would expect this tank to get better and better as time goes on, so keep an eye out.

Thanks Doug. John finally made it over last week and I am glad that he made it over. He said it reminded him of Rich's color.

Btw, you are correct that we have some very skilled reefers in our area. It is pretty amazing that we are lucky enough to all be friends as well.
