    In the middle of the uglies. Diatoms, green algae starting, currently have a bacteria bloom so the water is pretty cloudy. Just gonna let the tank settle down before adding too much, and you caught me in the middle of a water change so everything is a bit stirred up. Will definitely update...

    Probably a couple clownfish for the kiddos. Can't go too exotic when I know the tank has an expiration date in a few years. 8 more years until I can stay in one place and really put some thought into a stock list.

    Morning All! Just moved to Central Coast - Vandenberg AFB near Lompoc. Finally got my 60 cube set up and filled. I'm an Army guy so I have moved 9 times in the past 12 years. I should be here long enough to get the tank established pretty good (~3 years). Looking forward to scrounging for...
