what your in Brandon ,I can't speak

Nice build thread Mike. Tank looks amazing:)
Did you notice a drastic growth and color difference since switching from the t5's to halides?

looking at the colors specturms the t-5 gave some nice color, but the shimmering effect and the growth patterns are great with MH... from what i could see..

Well its was just like Christmas here at my place. looking what i have

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH what do we have here.

Well....

The red is a little pretentious...... :)

All hail the King. Sweet early chrismahuanafestivus present.

Enjoy Buddy!

Very nice, In your video slideshow you have a little bubble coral, looks to be twice the size mine was when I got it way back when, forgot how cool they are when that small. Keep up the good work.

I can't wait for you to rate the bubbleking. If anyone has used enough skimmers to compare, it's you :lol:

Thanks Marie, well listening to the skimmer its very quiet like you have stated to me earlier. once its broken in I will give my feed back on it so far its going to get great results from me.

how long does it take to break in anyways, I was going to soak it in Vineger. but i couldnt wati to get it in the tank.

actually i have another vid but its 225 megs and photo bucket wont let me upload it. that is the one that i wanted to use , that video is of my 120 gal mostly.

I hope that you are bowing now when saying that .:lol:

Your going to love the Skimmer Mike. It's so little LOL it's a baby BK

J

I soaked mine in vinegar before using and the skimmer started skimming within minutes after being placed in the sump. It still took a couple of weeks before it hit it's stride though and has been skimming consistently ever since with no help from me other then cleaning the collection cup twice a week

This is the skimmer 2 hours after I placed it in the sump

Now j size isnt a issue here RIGHT J, WHAT YA MEAN IT LOOKS LIKE A BABY LOL
Like that cough ad AHHHHHHHHH LOOK AT THE BIG BABY

I see that you have a hose for your skimmer Marie I didn't get one just a plug

Hoser!

rolmao

Well in some cases size matters don't let anyone fool ya. LOL

Here is my bad boy (sorry for the hijack)

So please tell me that picture was taken when it was still brand new, it looks so clean. Mine is covered in coraline algae and salt :rolleyes:

No that was 10 minutes ago.... LOL No I think that was 30seconds after it was first turned on

Size perspective

Wow! thats a small guy

Is that huge trim around the tank pretty expensive??

no worries Jason there isnt any hijacking goign on here. Im glas that you put you skimmer on there to allow my skimmer to stop thinking that he is a 650 external.

way to trim him down,,,

LOL Well it'll do the job like no other so that's what counts. I'm sure you will agree that the BK isn't all hype. They are KING

J

I was just wondering b/c the fiance want's a big mirror with a big thick trim but I'm assuming it's pretty expensive stuff???

WOW I have really lost me on thou 2 quotes.:rolleyes: what in the world does that have to do with the skimmer.

I think it was supposed to go with this post, It was posted in the middle of the skimmer conversation and kind of got lost :lol:

edit 4 times later after I had to read the post now i get it.. time for a Coffee and Bailey's

OK Superduper i see now what your asking my bad. The trim was I think $1.79 on sale at home depot... something like that yes is huge I went with other trims before on other inwalls but the nice wide trim Imo /IME are the way to go..to accent the tank better.

Ahah sorry, I guess it was kinda random. I just really like the big thick trim but $1.79ish sounds like a pretty good deal to me. I'm assuming that's per foot? I'll have to check out home depot. I didn't know they carried stuff that big. Thanks!

IMO it also looks really good. Very nice tank!

take a look at this its my new movie..

Love the "King of the King" shot.:biggrin:

Either that is one small dog or one large skimmer. i really like the song in the background. there are some nice shots taken there. Glad things are going well.
tank looks great.

Nice Job! When all those frags grow in, it's gonna look sweeeeeet!

wow everything looks so happy keep up the good work!!

When I was watching the video the music was almost making me wanna jump up and dance LOL :lol:

I redid some of the Rock work on the right to make sure that i can place all the frags in a good location.

AGAIN THANKS SNAPPY,,,,,,,:mrgreen:
