awsome. i think i went through a full tube when i did mine. how much silicone did you end up burning through?

Still have over half left. But I'm about to put on an outside bead too.
 
Finished sealing up the tank. All the glass stayed put! Lol... I'm not exactly a DIY guy....
 
I never thought about putting the clip near the bottom of the tank... hmmm... maybe that will entice more algae eating...
 
awesome man, cant wait for the next 24-48 hours and you can double check your work.

how does that clip work low? i just put ours low but havent tried feeding from that position yet.

Works good... I just put it by his favorite rocks....
 
Hey tang police (yes, Carey, lol). What are your opinions on a blue eyed tang?
 
Got some additions to go get and add... Alk is steadily going up... At 5.5 now!!!
 
I weigh in on the blue eye tang at 75g minimum tank size. They do grow up to 8 inches from what i've read. It;s very similar tothe tomini and the kole tang. :)

Lol... Good, because I got 1... It's better known as a 2 spotted bristletooth. A also got some yellow tailed damsels. Read they are not as aggressive as most...
 
You're not paranoid about adding so many fish so soon? lol I'm still nervous about my latest fish going in. hehe

No, not since my 55 gallon sump is ready and everything is coming together. Plus this tang is even stressed or skittish.... He's bright as a juvenile can be.... Looks great... The damsels, they are skittish... Lol... How ironic..
