I ordered a Ro/Di unit from the Filter guys, their 5 stage Ocean Wave. By the end of the week I should be a rule following, ro using reefer! Only took me four years to get around to it but now I won't have my dirty tap water secret anymore.

Another four year mark, I finally got an anemone, a RBTA, probably one of the last in the group to get one of those as well, lol. And naturally my maroon clownfish that has been the bane of our existance since we bought her has disappeared and presumed dead as of the day before I got the 'nem. Figures. First fish ever, four years ago and she dies the day before I give up and get her a host. So if the RBTA makes it I have to get new clowns to protect it. Thinking saddlebacks or cinnamons but not sure. Might just wait and keep an eye on the forums, large aggressive clowns seem to show up free sometimes.

So now I have a 135 gallon cleared of all my corals and whose sole inhabitant is my royal gramma. Embarassed Very boring but since I ordered the ro unit, new box of salt, new halide bulb, my coral coming tomorrow and a bunch of non reef stuff, I'm totally broke. Looking like I'll be broke next check too but I hoping not, I really need to order fish, especially since it's nice out again.

Poor little lonely royal gramma. It really does figure that the clown finally bit the dust just before bringing him home the nem. Huh!

Is the coral that's coming the one you were telling me about? Can't wait to see pics.

Ro unit showed up last night, guess they don't send a shipping confirmation email, got 3 boxes from Fedex yesterday and then got home after work at 11pm and found another box! So hopefully I can talk James into figuring it out and setting it up tonight. Do most just run it into a big trash can or what? Got another 200 gallons of salt mix which is good, used the last of mine for the swap.
