Shortly after setup, 9/30/2007

Just a few days after receiving my 2nd shipment of TBS' "The Package." The shipment was loaded with extras - goodies and hitchikers (both good and bad). The rock is kind of chunky but there are some pretty nice pieces, too. The main lure for a newbie like me was the "package" deal which included sand, rock with higher order organisms, and a large cleaning crew. If I had it to do over again (and maybe someday I will), I'd probably use multiple sources, both local and shipped since it would allow for better control of what I was putting in the tank.
