the anal retentive side of me says "looks natural" and "seems natural" are different then "is more natural".

But then again, is a sand bottom more or less natural than a plastic or glass bottom? lol

Looking good ian :-D

Ian was nice enough to invite me over to look at his tank. It's truly amazing. The sand compliments the overall look.

No secrets here. But yes it is cold in the fishroom. I need to insulate it soon.

Hey Ian you hook up the Swabbie yet? If so, how do you like it?
Its been running for a while. It works great for what it is. I have it and the davy jones skimmate locker. With those too I don't have to remove the collection cup at all haha.

I know, he expects people to brush and floss twice daily and can't clean a skimmer? I've heard it all now :D

+1 on the sonicare. I love mine. I also like my waterpik - I think it's better than floss b/c the water never gets stuck between my teeth. (plus it's great for cleaning tissues off of corals...)
