That looks like a sweet shack your living in. I'd make the stand to match the cabinets of the bar.

Ya that's a good idea I also still have some of the wood from the bar countertop left over in the garage just would have to find someone who could mill it for us:biggrin:

So, are you sayin' that it's not fully planned out yet :sad:
Or did I mis-understand you ... ?

No it's fully planned out but he's never really took much interest unless it's watching the tank as it progresses. My grandpa came over little while ago for a party we were having(we won esso minor hockey week) and he kept telling my dad what a fantastic hobby it was. My dad then was all for the new tank and even installed a laundry sink in the basement for me. But I just don't think he knows how big it is.

Sounds like you have a plan and the list of the equipment you using rocks.
Just sharing my experience I would think about twice about the flame angel with hit guys is a hit or miss I have one that nips on my sps and I hate him but he is so beautiful...
Anyways good luck with the build and great place you chose to put the tank.

I also was wondering what kind of light would be good for the frag section of my sump?
I was thinking maybe a par 38 or one of those celestial lights. Would those be good enough to grow corals.

hi there, sounds like you are on the right track, to match the basement, how about the stand is built with the stonework that is similar to the bar, that bar and basement is beautiful, I would like to spend time down there looking at the fish tank. By the way, sounds like you are a young hobbyist. cheers ken

I was also thinking about that but I think it would be to expensive and heavy if I ever needed to take it off I was hoping to just use magnets to hold it up:neutral:
