Well the tank has be up and running for 1 year this week. All the contents came out of my 12g Eclipse which was set up for a little over a year. I added a few things, fragged a few others, but basically just let it do its thing. Looking at the two pics I am amazed at the growth. I guess when you see it every day you just don't realize the changes it is going through.

Actually the lighting has changed. I was using a 175w 10k with 2 Ultra actinic PC bulbs. The Ultra bulbs tend to look more blue. I am now using a 250w 10k with 2- 03 Actinic. I like the color much better.

Thanks bird, The powerhead is not attached to the aquaclear, it is just placed there for flow along the back of the rock.It is acutally sitting inch or two from the AQ intake.I am using 2 of the AQ tubes together so it expends down to right above the sand. But your right, from the pic it looks attached.
