It's not much of a colony as I've only had it about 3 months but it's encrusted real well over the putty. It wasnt actually on the rocks yet. I thought it was so it wasn't hard to pull out. Let me see if I have a pic of it.

Sounds beautiful, I expect a pic once it's back to being presentable On a random note you ever use your baster or a stick of some sort to beat some sense into hermits when there trying to commit murder? My biggest dwarf zebra may be getting a one way trip to the sump if he doesn't learn his lesson

Haha no but my friends roommate had a 75 with a big synodontis catfish once that was really mean. He used to beat it back with a wooden spoon when it attacked other fish lol. The thing was like a foot long! I have picked them up and thrown hermits in the back of the tank for stealing food from my acans

That's a big catfish, I don't think my turkey baster or chop stick would work on that

Yeah didn't see anything else that I had to have, so I'll be waiting. You live by PEA? Boss just caught me looking at corals, shook his head laughed and walked out. I'm lucky we run the most profitable shop of any honda dealership in the area, or I might have gotten the "can we talk in my office" line.
