Rik's Tank Tour


Leishman

Recommended Posts

Hey all:

 

I have decided to have a Tank Tour on Sunday August 13th

 

It will be form 2pm on. (CMAS has a TT in Towson from 1-3 then they will be heading down my way - I hope) I would like to have things wraped up by 5:30 if possible.

 

I have a Euro-braced 65x36x25 tank with a 48x30x18 sump. My frag tank is attached to the system and is a 65 wide (36x24x18). All 3 tanks are from Glasscages.

 

You can see some older pictures HERE but things will look much different by the TT as will be re-aquascaping soon and adding some old equipment back on to the tank (UV etc....)

 

Here is a picture I took @ lunch today:

As people who have seen my tank will notice, I lost lots of corals in a mini crash last month. Just means I have lots of room to fill with new stuff. (old pic below)

Got you on my calendar Rik! :bounce:

 

I'm heading out to Jeff NAGA to p/u my 90g Acrylic tank this Sunday, a tad excited to say the least.

EricBrian is coming over Sunday morning and we are building my stand for it. Then heading over to Jeff's Tank Tour this Sunday and I believe Yomeister's?

 

Probably won't be available for a frag by then, but there is always tomorrows!!!!

 

DANG! BTW, Sorry for the losses!

Sucks you guys are doing it at the same time. How am I supposed to show up at your TTs when I'm stuck at my place? :why:

Well Chris, 143gadgets, came over last night @ 8 pm and we emptied the tank and reaquascaped the whole thing. Chris left here close to 2 am and I hit the sack at 3:30. Chris took a couple of pics but the tank was cloudy and the glass was a mess, but all-in-all I'm much happier with the tank.

 

I will have lots of frags at the TT and also a few colonies FS [aswell as some give aways].

 

I will post a picture here later, if Chris doesn't beat me to it.

 

BIG thanks to CT for all his help, I would not have done it w/o his help. Thanks again Chris.

 

Cheers

No problem Rik. It was a pleasure to help with your tank. Hopefully I will be known as the aquascaping king after that. Man I am so exhausted. I got home at like 3:00am!

We're starting at around noon and you can certainly come earlier if that would help.

Sounds good to me (if I can have my house in shape in time!)

 

Here's a pic I just took of the new aquascape.....
