My tanks on auto pilot it's all doing well growing like crazy! I did pick up 15-20 new corals this last weekend at reef Ed. I went just west of grand junction to pick up a tank this last Sunday it's a 240 gallon tank that's 48x36x30 glass. I'm trying to talk the wife into letting me put it in our bedroom but she's not to find of it. She really wants a 10'x4x30" tank so I'm not sure lol I really like this tank so we will see
