You're welcome- sorry you are no longer with RB- It takes people time to get to certain threads- then you are in a daily discussion with many! It took some time for me too. It's very addictive! Wish you luck with your tank!

You might want to try some GARG grunge, you just mix a little into your sand, or put it behind your LR, like I did. It is full fo neat stuff. Check it out at GARF.org
