Lighting I may run my 2 400's on a light Rail if I can find a 2nd hand one. there is one on RC just waiting on him, to get back to me.

hittin the big time. :fadein:
your gonna want the yellow tangs...they will keep the algae in check as well as look amazing.
i purchased ecco rock awhile back and think its a fantastic product. great to build with.

I'm so jealous. That's all I can manage to say right now.

Well if you would stop being stuck up and drop down for a visit to see me and Doug it wont be so bad. But noooooooooooooooooooooo not you little SASK GIRL:lol:

Im going to be doing either Tile work or fake ROck for the stand with magnet doors too

Exciting:smile:
Is the tank new/used - already built or is it going to be built onsite?

Mitch

mitch Im going to have it built in Winniepg and i will pick it up :sad:
with suction cups and move it to my place.....

That's going to be heavy! Hope you have some combat buddies!

Mitch

Oooh Oooh 240 gallons of fun! And MRC makes a nice skimmer!

ya a pan world 200 to power it oh yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa funny how we always go back to the basic's

going to order 75 lbs of ECO ROCK too just getting a price on it....

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....and when did you visit me last anyway? Do you remember? I don't! :p

1740 GPH Yup, that'll create a nice froth all right.

Fine I will come visit u then

Do it next spring...it will be worth the drive then. I have plans...oh yessss. :mrgreen:

In the meantime, I really want an 8' fowlr. :cry:

8' of peniNsulish goodness. :)

Normal FOWLR or Kien FOWLR?

Mike get some more fraggin' pics up. I don't care what they are of but you need to deliver and practice what you preach!

Hehe normal kind.

Ya Mike, more pics, more pics!!!

:eek:

Crap. I guess that's not how you spell peninsula. Typo fixed. Thanks.

Oh DAMN how'd i MISS that?! Yes props on the correction man =)

You started this thread yesterday, are you not done yet? :mrgreen:

So this is where I might put the Tank with the same trim and it will be recessed.

oh ya and I ordered 50 lbs of ECO REEFER Rock.

http://www.eco-reefer.com/Images/reeferrock_md.jpg

Your current in-wall is still running though right? I assume that's a construction shot from before?

yes Brett that was when Tammy was redoing the Rec Room

I still may do the inwall and yes the in wall is still running i have some one who is buying my tank and wants it soon/... I guess that i should order my tank here pretty quick.

I thought it was a peninsula? Looks like an in-wall?

Maybe what Tony was calling it refers to a peninsular tank that gets stuffed into a wall?

Ouch! That sounds painful!

ya i know im still debating, :cry::cry: i dont know whati want to do i will show you guy today where the tank may be be in the other place

:ranger::spit:

I love 3 sided viewing and man I'm going to miss it with my new tank, but 96x24x24 lends itself well to an inwall style (otherwise you'd have to go island style aquascaping with pretty skinny islands) - if you went 96x30x24 or even better 96x36x24 you'd have more room to work with for 3-d aquascaping (valleys crevasses ledges etc.).

In your other spot where you're thinking peninsula is there room behind it for tank room? Otherwise everything is going to have to fit in the stand and that might be a consideration to take into account too.

Hmmmmmmmmm well you must of been here talking to the Wife Tony , we were in the hot tub and she thinks its going to look a lot better in the wall . So in to the wall it goes and to the tubs the fishes go too. once i place the order.

IN island would look a lot better, however it would be a lot better in wall plus the water access is in the Luandry room and to run a Rodi Line would be a pain....

well here is a nice thing to see, when I was in Afghanistan I saw this pukani Rock and loved it and wanted to get some but at $10 lb pound it was wow. now with the Eco Reefer in ONTARIO. OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGg

Love the rock . well here is some of the stuff I bought 50lbs for 165 everything and it was at my house in 3 days thanks Eco Reefer.

Im buying another 50 lbs here oh ya pillars and ledges here I come I may even sell my old stuff.

well after talking with the builder Im going to be building the tank here on site for the ease of transporting it. And after talking with a buddy of mine about where the tank is now and some of the humid problems that i have been having it in the furnace room and since I have bought a dehumidifier and had it down stairs was getting nothing , now when I take it upstairs i pull a crap load. REASON, the humid air is making its way up stairs.

there is a CATCH.... see I get to move the 60" and put in on the wall and get to move the tank out in the open on the far wall where we have the TV. :mrgreen:. SO its going to be something like Parker's but with a tower to hide the stuff. on the end with a fake door to Enter.

So im looking for some skinning idea for the wall /stand I was thinking of the cultured rock...

Mike,
You could look for a faux siding product like Genstone:

It might depend on what's available in your area.

Mitch

ok so I have moved the tv from the tank wall and still going over plans on what way this is going to be built. This is what i come up with. the right side will have a tall cabinet that either will have click on magnets or a hinge like the ones on the left.
