Now, we have a new President that is to be inaugurated this coming January and though I don't actually agree with a lot of his ideas and plans I do hope that this much needed change does occur. The change that I so desperately hope for is in the education of the leaders and workforce of tomorrow. While I understand it's much easier to hope for something such as health care for all or a artificial money injected and boosted economy since those present a benefit for those who live in the right now. What about when the people living right now need the people living later to support them? What about making a country so much stronger as time progresses that tomorrow's today does not face the hardships that repeat themselves systematically?

Well, this is as far as I've gotten with my saltwater setup after about 4 months. I have learned a whole heck of a lot and I know I have a lot more to learn yet still. I have made a couple of changes and added a few fish as well as coral. The tank has matured pretty quickly and with Coraline algae spreading rapidly from month 3 and various little critters and copepods by the thousands.

Well, after approximately a month of having my saltwater tank setup and filled with saltwater, here is where it is. I have fixed up a few of the equipment issues I was having and I have completed my nitrogen cycle and begun the algae cycle/battle. I added a bunch of new equipment and got rid of a lot of others. I also added a few fish, clean up crew (CUC), and corals. I still have to get more live rock and I will probably make a few changes to my aquascaping, since I am not very pleased with how it looks right now but all the live rock came with my used tank purchase so I can't really complain.
