Sorry Dougster, I just could not resist the temptation any more, 2 of the clams I have had in the tank for about 6 months & are doing great so I said what the hell lets get another.........and another........and another........and another :twised:

Which line? Feeding the skimmer? If so that has been changed since I change to my Deltec 702 skimmer.

:doh: I missed the skimmer upgrade. I was remarking on this pic. I'll just go back to reading now :rapture:

I'm not sure how I've missed this amazing tank until now.

I'm in the process of deciding exactly what I want for my birthday tank (Happy 40th to me, in February), and I thought I had decided on 60x24x18. I've now decided that I need to go at least 72x24x18 . . . but I really want the extra two feet on top of that!

I guess I should update this thread before the tank goes away and is replaced with the new 300 gal. I really like the 8' length and so so my tangs :biggrin:

Wow just went through your entire build journal. Looks great, and I love how shallow it is.

Is that a painting on the wall of the ship? Looks great.

Thanks but unfortunately this tank has kind of gone down hill which gives me the kick in the a$$ to get going on the 8' - 300 gal build.

Yes that a ship mural on the wall, actually there are 2 ships battling & a couple islands with a stranded pirate on one. There is some areas of it that are painted with blue light paint, so when we turn on the blue light it glows.

nice clam collection!

Thank March, it was a good collection while they lasted. Only clam I have left is in my 60 gal seahorse / zoa tank.

how about an updated FTS? ;)
