Carter May 16, 2008 Author Share May 16, 2008 Alright, so as announced the rock came in and i made my aquascape, i like it, it is different, i will probably change it ha, or maybe add more rock... I must say i am really please with the kaelini, it came with a lot of visible life, i even see some closed up zoas, unfortunately i don't think they will make it. anyways... here are some early pictures... kind of cloudy since i was rumbling everything up... the pictures do the rocks no justice. Product from the Kingdom of Tonga, i love this box. this piece was huge maybe 15lbs another piece, 2 of 3 and the last big one. rocks! i just did this to get it out of sight. that is about it for now, let the cycle begin!
