I gave you what you wanted for the pump and told you when i got it working and used it that i would give you more. If you check your paypal account you will see that i made a deposit for you. You could have been a little more diplomatic and sent me a PM.

Uh oh? Haha Anywhooo..little update on my gorgonian..I went and bought some rotifers for it and I think its likes it. All polyps are open and when I gently squirt some at it the polyps close them open back up. That means its eating it right?! Woo! I am happpy, I didn't want to starve this coral. And also I traded in all my Kenya trees. I was so sick of them dropping branches allll the time. So I got rid of them all. I got 50 bucks store credit. Didn't see anything I liked tho so I saved it for next time. My tank looks like a living snowglobe right now with all the rotifers swirling around!

Another update! I decided to get a little creative tonight. I had my little acan colony originally placed in the sandbed but I decided I didn't like that bc I want them to spread out as they grow not ball up. So I had some dry rubble laying around and some superglue.... I took three peices of rubble, glued them together and made a rock special for the acan colony bc I didn't have any room on my existing live rock. Well I prlly did have room but when the colony grows I don't want it to grow to close to anything else and have coral warfare soo I made it a special rock of its own so it has space to grow! The hardest part was breaking the dowel off the frag plug. I had to use all my tiny muscles for that! But it eventually came flying off coral unharmed. I simply glued the frag to the new vacant space and voila! Hopefully someday this whole rock is covered by acans! Here's the pics to prove it Haha. I feel accomplished! I am not a very handy person but this worked out for me. Sorry for the blurriness!

GREAT job! That will look great! I know I've said it before, but you're doing a wonderful job with the tank.
Do you feed the acans at all? In my old tank, mine loved to eat cyclopeeze or even mysis shrimp. They really grew a lot faster with feedings, too.

My acans dont encrust on to anything, they are still growing around the original skeleton, turning into puff balls. Im not sure if there is anything you can do about that.

Thanks parrot. That means a lot. I spend a lot of time on my tank so im glad its turning out well. I tried to feed them a couple times during the day but they didn't want to eat bc it wasn't night. I want to get them to eat whenever there is food present not just at night. I haven't tried at night although I think I might bc they have their feelers out every night. I want these its to grow fast! They are so pretty.
Little fish, that's odd, I read a lot ik different sites saying if you leave them in the sandbed with just their plug then they will just continue to ball up on that. But if you put them on a rock their flesh will grow onto the rock. Idk about yours though, that's weird.
Yea I've noticed that nano. Theirs don't ball up at all do they. We should ask him how he does it.
