Old, old pic.

I'll upload full tank and specs tomorrow night in a separate thread.

Since then more coral and a firefish has been added, along with doubling the light output. Excuse the algea, the lights are very high output, and it's still a new tank. h:

Here's mine, these crappy cell pix will have to do till tomorrow when I get my digi







Does too much oxygen in the water bother the fish? Right now I have from the middle by the rock, the right side from the oxygen thing and I'm thinking of using the oxygen thing on the left side too. Would that be too much and bother them?
