Here is a crappy video I shot of the tank with my iPod a week ago, kind of get an idea of how its set up...

Gareth and Megan's 265 Gallon

Would love to see this setup...do you allow visitors? I get to the Island for business about every 5 weeks or so.

Here's some detail. You do not want to tank sit this setup when Gareth goes on vacation!! :)

For sure, I'm usually good for evenings, or Tuesday-wednesday when I'm not working.

LOL... its gonna run itself while I'm away... one week isnt too bad. Just needs to be fed. Doing my water change tonight/tomorrow and it will be good till I'm back from Cuba..

*fingers crossed*

how long you going to sit and stair at all the diffeent colored wires?

Gareth, lock up the electronics if he is babysitting.. that way he can't screw anything up haha

Steve

No, I'm not watching it. And I'm pretty sure all the wires are the same color!

lol yes they were, got a good deal on the right guage wire so I had 1000 feet to use..
