    Hopefully this pic shows up, we got a new tablet yesterday and nothing makes you feel old like getting your butt kicked by technology! So far so good for livestock, it ended up being the equivalent of a 50% water change. We used 80# of sand, approx 100# of live rock in the display and 30# in the...

    Leather toadstool
