Called about your old tank. They are using it in store for a display.

i don't know how far along you are in the process but if you want i'll sell you mine and you can save some money. i also have the beta test arduino board laying around somewhere. i prefer the evergrows and don't really have a place for the nanoboxreef light. let me know! also which controller are you going to use with it or just use the four manual drivers with it?

Looking good!  the stand will be nice in terms of the extra space you'll have for equipment as well.

 

Thanks everyone

But seriously, I can't believe you slept. Did you sleep? I really like that stand, I know I've said it before, but it's great how you've utilized it. I'll have to keep my eyes open for something similar I can DIY when I move my tank, the stands that come with most aquariums are built like pos's.

 

I remember asking you about your lightbar, can you post pictures of the base or how you attach it or ground it down? I may try something similar with my Biocube.

The last two games were insane. So glad team lebron won

 

You gotta go to way south Virginia, gold mine for old furniture to restore.

 

There is a flange that is screwed to a piece of wood that holds the light stand up. I will take a pic tomorrow.

 

Just went to quantum reefs. Awesome store.

Wow...I really like the new floors!

And the new tank looks good too....

 

 

Thanks!

 

 

so did the workers take a look at your tank and decide they better leave all that extra flooring? LOL

Funnyyyyyy -_- I stayed up till 6am to watch the tank fill lol

 

The extra is for when we decide to do the bedroom

Picked up a eheim 1262 pump yesterday, will redo the return this weekend. The overflow is a bit noisy due to the current pump not being strong enough.

Whoot!!!!!!!! It's in operation

Gorgeous......

Staying ultra minimalist?

Thanks! Yup, ultra minimalist. No more rocks will be added. Cover the rocks in SPS and get some kind of crazy hammer colony from Incredible Corals; that will be about it expect maybe a little zoa garden.

 

I want a lot of fish though, I have never "overstocked" before.

 

-Black clown...have

-Firefish...have

-Naked clown...need to buy

-4 Anthias...haven't decided on the mix, Barletts or sunburst, or...

-Midas..need to buy

-Maybe 4 or 5 Chromis
