    Hi everyone! Hope everyone has been well. We have been out of town working since december, with three weeks here at home in febuary. Glad to be be home. Came home to a leaky tank and several missing fish. Seems like this happens whenever I go away. lol the fish part anyway. Fixed the tank though and all is well again.

    We have the large brown pebbles underneath the lace rock caves leading over to the white coral for a kind of two sided tank. We have created lots of holes and little obstacles for our africans to swim around. We use ocean salt to help enhance color.
