zoozilla December 14, 2012 Author Share December 14, 2012 Ha, never!! Actually, the tank was picked up a couple of days ago by some nice folks off of craigslist and is now good hands. Lucky for me the tank didn't sit too long. I was leasing space in front of the washer/dryer and the wife wasn't too pleasant about it. Well, it's a new "used" tank. Details to follow Dan, can I have my old tank back now.!! Whats this new tank you speak of.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I dont miss carrying it.. Thanks Travis. Don't remind me it! Though, it seemed much easier getting it here than taking it out this time around. That slight grade in my back yard really hurt.

zoozilla January 12, 2013 Author Share January 12, 2013 Several weeks ago, I decided on a slight upgrade. So long 150 DT. I kept all of the fish and sold off some of the corals.

zoozilla January 12, 2013 Author Share January 12, 2013 The tank was already drilled with 2 x 1.5" holes in the back glass for a closed-loop. In the mean time while deciding on a pump for the loop, I went ahead and added the plumbing and unions: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoozilla January 16, 2013 Author Share January 16, 2013 Wow! Looks nice Thanks Matt! Looking good Dan!! I remember seeing that tank when you first set it up. I remember thinking, he it totally going to upgrade to a 6' long tank one day. I was right!!!! Hey there James. Long time man. Yep, I had some room to spare and the price was right on the tank. So, I saw an opportunity... Btw, congratz on getting hitched and becoming a new homeowner. You'll have more space now for that ultimate build! oo mama im glad that tank went to a good home, looks fantastic Thanks Evan. Glad the tank was still available when I finally decided to upgrade. I was actually surprised that it did not sell much sooner. very beautiful Dan....barebottom eh?... Thanks Billy! Full BB this time around. This is a big change for me since I've always had some amount of substrate even if it was less than 1/2". We'll see how it goes. But, should be much easier to keep clean.
