Nice scaping. :lol:

Try to shake the top rocks to see whether they are unstable. What are you planning with this tank? LPS? SPS? :D

Think most of them are pretty stable except one piece. They are somewhat connected to one another. I kinda shake them as I stack them til I get a stable feel then go on to stack somemore.

It'll be a mostly LPS tank, maybe try a bit of SPS at the top where the current is the strongest?

:thanks:

It's a black crab! The pincers are at least 5mm thick. Think that fellow is about thumb size.

He's been daring me to try to catch him. Doing the "now u see me. now u don't" thingy. :pinch::pinch:

Wait til I find something long and SHARP........ Will have sun baked crab one of these days.....

The pratas have been sitting in the old tank (now using it as a frag tank) for weeks. Just started to move them over this week, one or two at a time.

The cynarina was from my now decomm 2ft cube, and it was bleached. But now the colour is returning.

Yes, Sean, I was soooo tempted to take that rock out to dig it out, but the minute I move the rocks, it hides. Not sure if it goes to another rock or deeper into the LR. I'm pretty such that there are at least 2 escape routes at the back to the rock. :evil::evil:
