    I like the second aquascape better :0) What are you using for RO/DI water? Black Friday may have some RO/DI units for sale so keep an out :0) Oh, even if a damsel is small, when they grow up-they can be terrors :9(

    I would look on blackfriday for some RO Specials or http://spectrapure.com/Refurbished-90-GPD-RODI-System . This is the system that I use. The cost is about $20 over the next 6 months and will save you a lot of time and trouble!

    Tank is looking better. I agree with the damsel, it'll probably give your other fish trouble.

    That algae can quickly become the bane of your tank. I know you don't know me from Adam, but I think you should get that out of your reef before it takes off. I've spent YEARS eradicating the small amount I added long ago. Countless hours plucking by hand and by tweezer. I finally beat it but it sucked getting there. I've seen a LOT of people call it quits over macro gone wild. If it gets cozy it'll grow over all your rock and even your corals. The smallest fragment that gets away while plucking it can start up wherever it ends up, usually some out of sight location.

    I'd hate to see it take over your tank after all you've done to get this up and going. Can you tell how I feel about macro in DTs?
