Rich, thank you to you and your family for your generous hospitality and your display is awesome! Wish I had more time to drool in front of your tank... :biggrin:

New addition to the tank, set up a frag tank last week, it turned out better then I thought... Thanks to the boys for your valuable inputs.

Had to put in a one way check valve to make sure the sump don't over flow.

Bblinks 06-18-2012 10:41 PM

Looking forward for the frag and equipment swap on Saturday at my place, hopefully it will be a good turn out.

Funny I posted a frag tank wanted ad on canreef but I didn't get any response, as soon as I buy a regular 75 gallon tank and get every thing setup a perfect frag tank becomes available. So long story short, I ended up buying it and will be swapping it over after the swap.

check it out 48 X 24 X 12, perfect. Thanks to Tony3a for personally dropping it off at my place for me.

I thought you are going to give the wife a crash course on plumbing 101.

tang daddy 06-19-2012 06:12 PM

Can't wait to set up the new frag tank, it will be awesome for top down shots.....

We can turn your 75g into a remote sump with LR and chaeto/halymenia, I already got it planned out;)

That's too bad, I was looking forward for you coming down. Like I said I can pick you up from the ferry is you do decide to make an appearance even if its you with out the family.

Yes it is. but you have to really blast it with huge amount of par to bring out the color or else some of the shaded areas will turn brown.

Hmm, that might be the same type I have, it's just starting to get it's color back. It's lower in the tank, so it doesn't get as much light as it could. If I can't get over and someone else from here does, maybe send them home with a frag :)
