Hey guys/girls,

So I've finally got another tank up and cycling. It's been just over a year and I am so happy to be back in the game!!! Got my foot in the right direction thanks to some friends who helped me out and made this start right!!!!!

My build in progress and hope you enjoy cuz honestly I KNOW ill be happy and so proud of the progress. It's a very rewarding hobby I be in.

Here's some snaps on how it started and where it's at now. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/07/24/8yvere7a.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/07/24/yryna3e8.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/07/24/ju7adeqy.jpg

FYI! In the previous post I didn't add the crab, he was a hitchhiker from the live rock ingot from a friend.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/07/24/qaza8ere.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/07/24/hetamupe.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/07/24/pa5usuha.jpg

personally i would beef up that stand a bit on the vertical corner legs , 2 x 4 on the corners will tend to tip without a " L" made from using 2 , i know its not a huge tank but one little bump to the left or right and your whole system can end up on the floor once the weight ****s to one side.

better safe than sorry for the cost of a couple 2 x 4"s :)

cheers

I was actually thinking about doing that. Still wanna make it more visually appealing cuz it's older. Used it last year when I had it running.

Few pics. Got a frag order in, but it's not all for me.

Last day I had the flowerpot recovering in my tank and Fredric II chilling by it.
