Lucky you. I've tried several times with no success.

Mornin!

Yeah isn't that annoying, I have clicking in both my 90 and my nano. I can't find whatever it is either.

I just finished reading a 180g build thread on ReefCentral. Trying to gather ideas for mine.

Are you an early riser too? Does the 180g give you idea's on going larger? My 95g
is fish only, but sometimes when I see all the amazing new coral's I daydream. lol
I really think one reef is enough though.....ahh, the temptation. This really is an
addiction.

Nah I just had this weird dream that creeped me out. I can't stop thinking about it. Man our minds can be messed up during sleep.


Anyhoo, I decided to go with a 180 because I felt I could do it comfortably. I would have loved something larger but I dunno about having a massive tank. I don't know if I would enjoy all the maintenance and the expense of keeping it up (ie. MH bulb replacement, waterchanges etc). Now I am sort of wishing I had gone with something like Lance's 225 to get the extra 6" of width but oh well. I'm pretty stoked about the 180 but have to wait till we get a bigger house, which will hopefully be very soon.

I just watched your video very nice. Do you still have the powder blue. Nice fish, are
they as tough to keep as I have heard? I'd love to get one someday! My house is full aquariums, bedroom's, living room has 3. If I put it all into one big tank, say like a 200g
that would be cool. But I agree with you on the up keep, ouch. Not to mentioned all
I'd have in the living room would be the tank. No seats, no t.v. Ah, well! Maybe after
I check my 6-49 today.

Yep I still have the powder blue. From what I've read most have had various issues with keeping them. I've been really pleased with mine. This is the first one I've ever had and I'm coming up on 2 years with him.

Wow thats a lot of aquariums. Our house is only 760sq ft and I don't think my husband would appreciate that many tanks Besides the maintenance. I have a nano and a 90 and thats enough for me.

Bleh my laptop battery is dying. Guess I'll try going back to bed.
