Tank Update
So today I realized that my stand is upside down! Does anyone on the forum know where to get suction cups?
Also I picked up some more plumbing parts. Man this hobby is expensive. I have a contractor discount and it still cost me an arm and a leg! |
Reposting Images
So I guess Photobucket is a pay to see site now and some people can't see the images I have posted. So here are the photos again that are loaded to a different site.

I would like a full SPS tank I think. Still thinking about it at the moment. I really like Zoas too! As for fish I really like Tangs and Wrasses. I haven't figured out exactly which ones I'd like though. |
Awesome
This is a smaller version of my dream setup!
And yes powder coated stands and what not do add up fast lol Why are you wanting to go triton right out of the gate? ill be following along on this. Do you have a water fill date? |
That's one sharp setup 👍
