I thought it was about time i posted a few pics of the tank.
Its a juwel vision 450 with 2 x overflows going into a shed with 1 x 3ft DSB + 1 x 3ft sump

There is a small problem with hair algae but the sea hare is gradually sorting that out
Notice the Lettuce slug on the front glass and its offspring in the other photo :D around 20 off the little cuties kicking about
Once big enough i will advertise them for frag swaps if anyone is interested.

If Marge (the copperband) would stay still long enough for a decent shot yes , she was very thin when i got her but is fattening up nicely now but will still oly eat frozen mysis and pod life off the rocks

Thanks for the replies
Very happy with the progress but suffering some cyano at the moment so i'm using a gravel cleaner each water change to filter the sand as much as i can. I recently installed an orp controller but have been getting very poor readings (102 at present) which has been baffling me :confused:

almost all the bryopsis has gone except the patch at the top which the lettuce slugs seem to love so left that there for now.

Thanks for the kind comments.:o
I always find close up pics really difficult due to the curved glass as the camera cannot focus properly

wow, that's a cracking tank you've got there. I notice you are in Darlo, I'm just down the road in Aycliffe.
