Alright well there is fish and some starter coral in the tank now...thought i would show u guys some pics.. unfortunately some of the fish that entered the new tank have passed on... i have now had a clown, a cleaner wrasse, and my beautiful juvenile orange shoulder tang die. Live and learn i guess... but none the less thats life and here are some pics of the tank thus far... hope everyone enjoys

R.I.P. http://i773.photobucket.com/albums/y...3/100_7630.jpg oh and just for the heck of it.... this is what im using for my overflow to prevent anyone from going for a ride into the sump or getting stuck in the gate valve.... its a return for a pond but it fits perfectly in my overflow and the holes are to big and too many for it to clog up...perfect.. the only thing that might be able to get through would be one of my really tiny fish or maybe a shrimp....maybe http://i773.photobucket.com/albums/y...3/100_7626.jpg http://i773.photobucket.com/albums/y...3/100_7625.jpg well thanks for checking it out...hope u all are enjoying so far |

nice skin on the tank frame. I gotta get mine done proper :redface:

give me a call and ill hook ya up. We do Awesome wood work at my job and our prices are reasonable being that the stands all end up being custom.. mine was a bit more because i went with allot more hardwood then i could have gotten away with. All the trim could have been made with paneling and then veneer edge taped but i went big... haha.. thanks for looking
Steve |
