I'm jealous of those cute adorable triplets- anyone can have a nano, but not everyone gets triplets when they ask for em!!

I keep looking at other people's tanks and wish I could just duplicate the beauty of their reef, coral, etc, etc. Maybe one day I'll stop growing grass in my tank and will be able to add some more coral.

OK so that's what 14K looks like. That's the same bulb that mine will come with. Where'd you get the rock?

I will follow your progress with particular interest

Ok just wanted to post an update. Sticks went into the nano on Feb 14th and added a few frags from the ARC meeting on Feb 15th. Last weekend I had a hair algae outbreak- YUCK! Tank is not looking pretty. I added a few astreas and nothing happened so I added 15 hermits last night and they have done a great job cleaning up. I did a 4g water change on Thursday to help with the nitrates. I hope it goes away soon. As soon as I can get the tank cleaned up, I will post more pictures
