Cost of tank will be 10% of the cost of the rest of the items... Also, you will need more $ for larger equipment and more supplies. 2c..I would add up the difference for the tank plus equipment to figure out the true cost difference. Then, if it makes a difference, decide if $ is a factor.

Nice Jason & Christina! Perseverance with a tinge of insanity...the hallmark of a true wamaser!

Are you selling the sofa and cam outfit?

Dude... you're having waaay too much fun (yet, I suspect there is a LOT of background effort going on)!

Thanks for sharing... He's got a book out also which is a nice coffee table book (got it earlier). The inverted fish-size population was a pretty big eye opener!

You might want to advance frag to save some corals (with a flip side that this will stress corals).

Chris, Same house? Thanks. Nadir

I wonder what they are doing? I wonder what they are eating?

Quite a number! HH might still be worth it if you replace all your other pumps with one...but on the other hand, then you have one point of total faliure!

Came with live rock. I can catch a few at some point if you want.

Don't forget the lowly - and free - stomatella snails. They do their work just fine and will multiply in your tank.

Both of these corals can be fast growing. The zoanthids less so. I like GSP, but would put any kind of GSP on an isolated rock and keep trimming...as it will take over your whole tank.

Here's a video I took of Almon making the frag plugs....! Enjoy... http://www.youtube.com/user/WamasVideos

Rik, Looks great...going to fantastic! Good luck!

Great work! Count me in for a group build... :-)

More flow...however, as Justin has put in his response...avoid directed/laminar flows. In order to reduce directed/laminar flows, you can consider eductors. Search reef central on DIY eductors. One thread is based on heating and moulding PVC pipe for a fraction of the costs of purchasing with (what it seems) similar results.

Scott, Good luck and a quick mend with your surgery! Wrasses are doing well. Best, Nadir

I'll be there....

I'll throw out that it looks like a section of a brain coral.

Summer. Put a window A/C if possible. This will de-humidify the room and keep it cool -> no chiller required. Winter: De-humidifier. This will de-humidify the room and heat it. In summer, the heat from the de-humidifier will heat your room and require you to cool the tank/room. If you have a drain in the basement, connect a hose from the de-humidifer to the drain -> no more emptying the buckets.

Or can you not glue a threaded slip to a 90?

Have you tried Nolands on Wilson by 7 corners?

I'm in...

I've seen the setup. It all works, tank is in good condition, and lights are practically new. You're getting everything (rocks, fish, coral, anemones, equipment) for less than the price of the lights! If I needed it, I'd be there already...
