Gallery pics.
I just added some pictures of my first [acronym:1e1d59a65a="Saltwater"]SW[/acronym:1e1d59a65a] tank in my gallery.
The tank is about 2 months old.
Take a look, what do you think?

How large is the tank? How many lbs of [acronym:88c2e2457e="Live rock"]lr[/acronym:88c2e2457e] do you have in it? In my opinion, it looks like you need more [acronym:88c2e2457e="Live rock"]lr[/acronym:88c2e2457e]. It is very sparce, which is common when starting a tank.

I see the trigger that hitched a ride on your [acronym:b89cecdfea="Live rock"]LR[/acronym:b89cecdfea]. Have you looked for someone to give him a new home?

The tank is a 12 gallon eclipse. 10 lbs of live sand. about 20 lbs. live rock.
I'm going to get more [acronym:ee4113930a="Live rock"]LR[/acronym:ee4113930a] today.
The trigger is going to a [acronym:ee4113930a="Local Fish Store"]LFS[/acronym:ee4113930a] where i am going to get the [acronym:ee4113930a="Live rock"]LR[/acronym:ee4113930a] from. They are going to give me 12$ store credit for it. He is getting more and more aggressive as the weeks pass.

A small [acronym:e45d8c001a="quarantine or quart depending on context"]QT[/acronym:e45d8c001a] had the same effect on mine. They do not like closed quarters

Have you done any lighting mods to thee eclipse hood? I started with an eclipse 6 and it worked great for a [acronym:2c4b54e3ef="Fish only with live rock"]fowlr[/acronym:2c4b54e3ef] with some inverts. I hade 8 lbs. of [acronym:2c4b54e3ef="Live rock"]LR[/acronym:2c4b54e3ef] and 10 lbs of sand. The hood kept evaporation to a minimum (I never had to topoff the water). Did you buy the marine kit or is it just a standard 12.
