    Thanks Phyl. You know i didn't notice they were out of focus until you mentioned it. Can't wait for your talk on photography. You are still going to do that at Andy's I've had the tripod hanging around from the old video days of the kids. Couldn't find the little piece that goes on the camera...

    Re-aquascape? Getting frustrated. Need Help / Advise/ Comments

    Can you give us water parameters? You mention you lost a few corals and a clam, maybe your nitrates spiked. What is your clean up crew like? I like the caves as well.
