    Many Thanks for the comments they are very much welcome and appreciated,

    Needless to say the TV hasn't been on in months.... Definatley wont be now.

    Wonder if our neighbours are wondering why the purple/pink hue glowing from the living room???

    Looks a little strange outside at night!

    Adrian, thanks for the coral advice I have been on your site and the Blasto is currently very puffed up during the day, any change and I will drop it lower.

    Couple more weeks and I will NEED to add more corals, Thinking softies, maybe LPS, not feeling confident enough for SPS yet, NEED new tank, much bigger of course and sump etc.............

    Must explain this to the wife...

    Suggestions on what to add? Mmmmm.

    TY, Keith.

    LMAO, thats what I have been fearing especially when I'm changing the phos remover. Spooning brown powder out of bags stashed in sealed containers never looks good from a distance. the neighbours did see me carting my new lights in the other day. I hope I don't get done over tonight I'm just lighting the BBQ!!

    Cheers Eric. I have found the whole thing fascinating and although it's a very steep learning curve it's worth every second. And yes I am gagging to get that new tank! Really looking forward to my Fit Filtration phone call Monday! ;-)

    Cheers Eric, Lost it for a day then it wandered around for a week and has now settled in the spot you see. Managed to not sting anything on it's travels and it seems really happy where it is for now. Maybe it has a considerate personality. ;-)
